Sinopsis

From the deaths of Paul and John to the Council of Nicea to how Apostolic Christianity was eroded, diminished, and ultimately eclipsed by the Roman Catholic Church. This is a study of how the Early Church handled its growth explosion and the results, good and bad, that followed their actions. Our purpose here is to open up the Pre-Nicene period (49 A.D. – 325 A.D.) of Church history and trace out the development that led to the rise of the Bishops and the diminishing of Apostles and Prophets, ultimately ushering in the Papacy and the Holy Roman Church.
