	Arianism Versus the Council of Nicaea (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		This Council in Antioch was a forerunner of the latter Council in Nicaea.
		At this Council Arianism was condemned, a profession of faith resembling the Alexandrian creed was promulgated and three Bishops who refused to agree with the teaching of this Council were provisionally excommunicated until the Council of Nicaea.
		This Council directly attacked the Nicaea Council by promulgating its own creed that omitted the phrases "from the substance of the Father" and "homoousios." Some attempts were made to find a substitute word for homoousios.

		First, Boettner does not tell his readers that the so-called council "called in Constantinople, in 754" was not an Ecumenical Council and has never been accepted as such by either the Catholics or Orthodox.
		The Council of Nicaea [II] considered this was a serious flaw in the legitimacy of the Council.
		But, even so, on conditions : the coming council was to anathematize the gathering [Iconoclastic council] at the Hieria of 753 [or 754], and this in the presence of the papal legates, the Empress was to guarantee full freedom of action to the council, and the legates were to be allowed to return to Rome.
