Sunday of the Fathers of the First Ecumenical Council
Come, all Orthodox Churches, let us celebrate today in faith and true worship the yearly commemoration of the divinely-arrayed Fathers who gathered at Nicea from throughout the world! There they refuted the godless teaching of Arius, banishing him from the catholic Church by a decree of the council. They taught all to confess openly the Son of God, consubstantial and co-eternal with the Father, proclaiming this with precision and true worship in the Symbol of Faith. Therefore, as we faithfully follow their divine doctrines, let us worship the Father, the Son, and the most Holy Spirit,// the consubstantial Trinity in one Godhead! (From Vespers for the Feast)
On this Sunday between Ascension and Pentecost, we commemorate the fathers of the First Ecumenical Council. This Council was held in Nicea in AD 325 and set a pattern for all later Ecuemnical Councils. Among its many decisions, the Council produced the first version of the NIcene Creed, explicitly affirming the divinity of Christ: the Logos, the Word and Son of God, is uncreated, ever-existent, and fully divine. He is 'begotten' from the Father, and not made or created by Him. He is of one essence (homoousios) with the Father, true God of true God, by Whom all things were made, Who for us and for our salvation became man from the Virgin Mary as Jesus Christ, the Messiah of Israel and the Savior of the world.
