In this image, Arius, Berber of Alexandria, is condemned as a heretic by the first worldwide gathering of christian leaders after the time of Jesus. They met in Nikea in 325 AD to address Arius’s claim that there was a difference between Jesus and God.
Citing the available texts, he suggested that God was an eternal “un-begotten” entity while Jesus was a figure “begotten” (by God) and therefore different in their “essence”.
The assembly voted against Arius by about 300 to 3 (the exact number voting is uncertain).
The winners maintained the dogma of the trinity principle, that Jesus, God, and Holy Ghost were the same indivisible, eternal essence, therefore there could be no such thing as “a time before Jesus”. By this decree, the church declared its authority free from the conditions of time and reason.
