Sample Book Insights:
#1 Hosius of Cordova was a tutor to Constantine, and he was the emperor's personal advisor in matters of faith. He was sent to Alexandria to end the doctrinal squabble between Eastern bishops and priests.
#2 The emperor saw the escalating conflict between the churches as a threat to his own plans. He wanted to restore a healthy tone to the system of the world, and he thought that the Christians should emulate the Greek philosophers who had tolerated disagreements far more profound than this without calling each other devils or organizing factions to suppress each other's opinions.
#3 Hosius was sent to investigate the case, and he found that Arius had written a long poem called Thalia - The Banquet. It was being chanted in port cities all around the eastern Mediterranean.
#4 The dispute between Arius and Alexander was a theological one, and it was far more significant than the emperor realized. It concerned the relationship between the Son, Jesus Christ, and God the Father.
