What is a church council?

A church council is a meeting of bishops and other church leaders to discuss and decide on matters of doctrine, practice, and discipline. Councils have been held throughout the history of the Church, and they have played a major role in shaping the development of Christianity.

The history of church councils

The first church council was the Council of Jerusalem, which was held in 50 AD to decide on the issue of whether Gentile converts to Christianity should be required to follow the Jewish law. The council decided that Gentile converts should not be required to follow the Jewish law, and this decision had a major impact on the development of Christianity.

Over the centuries, many other church councils have been held to address a variety of issues, including the nature of Christ, the doctrine of the Trinity, and the role of the pope. Some of the most important church councils include the Council of Nicaea (325 AD),the Council of Chalcedon (451 AD),and the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965).

Church councils have had a major impact on the development of Christian doctrine and practice.
