A total of 318 Holy Fathers participated, a number confirmed by Saint Athanasius of Alexandria.<\/p>\n<h2>Council Outcomes<\/h2>\n<p>Key outcomes of the Council of Nicaea include the condemnation of Arianism, the drafting of the first seven articles of the Nicene Creed, and the initial establishment of the method for calculating the date of Easter. The Council also addressed internal Church divisions such as the Meletian schism in Egypt and the Novatianist schism in Rome.<\/p>\n<p>The Council issued 20 canons, including restrictions regarding promotions within the clergy, regulations on the election and ordination of bishops, the structure of ecclesiastical organization, and overall Church discipline.<\/p>\n<h2>Foundations of Church Organization<\/h2>\n<p>Canon 4 stipulated that all bishops in the diocese should ordain a new bishop. If that was not possible, at least three bishops, with written consent from the absent ones, were required. The ordination was to be confirmed by the metropolitan of the respective diocese.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis ruling was extremely important,\u201d explained Fr. Viorel Ioni\u021b\u0103, honorary patriarchal counsellor, in <a href=\"https:\/\/ziarullumina.ro\/educatie-si-cultura\/interviu\/sinodul-i-ecumenic-modelul-cooperarii-panortodoxe-196637.html\">Lumina Newspaper<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith such measures, the foundations of the ecclesiastical organization into \u2018dioceses\u2019 were laid \u2014 referring at that time to the group of bishoprics within a province. The bishop of the provincial capital in the Roman Empire&#8217;s administrative system, i.e., the metropolis, held the title of \u2018metropolitan\u2019 \u2014 a title that originated then.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another important ruling was Canon 6, which later became the basis for the system of Pentarchy at the Fourth Ecumenical Council (Chalcedon, 451), affirming the primacy of the five apostolic patriarchal sees: Rome, Constantinople, Alexandria, Antioch, and Jerusalem.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCanon 6 of Nicaea, issued in 325, recognized the primacy of the See of Rome, followed by Alexandria and then Antioch. Constantinople did not yet exist as such; in the old city of Byzantium, there was only a simple bishop,\u201d Fr. Ioni\u021b\u0103 added.<\/p>\n<p>Among the early canons, there was also a liturgical ruling for the life of the entire Church: Canon 20 declared that during Sundays and the weekdays of the Pentecost season \u2014 that is, from the Feast of Pascha (Easter) to the Feast of Pentecost \u2014 \u201cprayers should not be made while kneeling.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The commemoration of the Holy Fathers of the First Ecumenical Council takes place on the seventh Sunday after Pascha (this year, on June 1).<\/p>\n<p>Photo: Lumina Newspaper<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/BasilicaNews\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-495171\" src=\"https:\/\/basilica.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/banner-x-en-889x148.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"889\" height=\"148\" srcset=\"https:\/\/basilica.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/banner-x-en-889x148.gif 889w, https:\/\/basilica.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/banner-x-en-1024x171.gif 1024w, https:\/\/basilica.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/banner-x-en-1536x256.gif 1536w, https:\/\/basilica.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/banner-x-en-2048x341.gif 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 440px, (max-width: 768px) 354px, 890px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Exactly 1,700 years ago, on May 20, the First Ecumenical Council (of the entire Church) was convened in Nicaea \u2014 a foundational moment in shaping Christian doctrine.
