A Survey Through Church History - W. Robert Godfrey
Jesus as God - P1:E8 - A Survey of Church History
Episode 8 • 23m
The fourth century witnessed some of the most critical Christological controversies in the history of the church. Despite the solid, Biblical determination that originated from these debates, heresies continued to abound about the person and nature of Jesus Christ, and many of these heresies still exist today in different shapes and forms. This should not surprise Christ's church, because He and His apostles warned us against this very situation and constantly called God's people to seek His truth in His revelation. This lesson demonstrates the importance of this fact, but it also shows that Jesus persists with His church through His Spirit to ensure that His flock continues along paths of righteousness for His name's sake.
