COMMENTARY: Marking the 1,700th anniversary of the Council of Nicaea, the Pope contrasts orthodox faith with the claims of Arius and outlines how the Church must address the ‘new Arianism’ in today’s culture.
The text of the joint declaration they signed rejects the use of religion to justify violence, urges global efforts toward peace, supports cooperation among believers of different faiths, and entrusts a suffering world to God with renewed hope in the Holy Spirit.
Leo said the Nicene confession of faith remains a foundation for unity among Christians worldwide.
COMMENTARY: The Jubilee and Nicaea anniversary summon Christians to reconciliation.
“Several concrete solutions have been proposed that, while respecting the principle of Nicaea, would allow Christians to celebrate together the ‘Feast of Feasts,’” the Holy Father said.
COMMENTARY: Each of us is called to stake our life on what we profess — just like the first Christians did.
COMMENTARY: The solemn sign of reverence and humility links Catholics with their Eastern Orthodox brethren by tapping into spiritual medicine promoted by Pope Leo XIV.
COMMENTARY: The first ecumenical council made a landmark profession of Christ’s divine identity that continues to anchor the Church today.
Arianism was condemned at Nicaea, but its modern form persists in sentimentalized, watered-down Christianity.
COMMENTARY: The Council of Nicaea gave Christianity more than a creed — it gave the Church a way to calculate Easter. But unity around the great feast of the Resurrection remains incomplete.
