Epitome of the General Councils of the Church, From the Council of Nice, A.D. 325, to the Conclusion

"An Epitome of the General Councils of the Church" by Richard Grier offers a comprehensive overview of the major ecumenical councils from the Council of Nice in 325 AD to the Council of Trent, concluded in 1563. This historical account provides invaluable insights into the development of Christian doctrine and the evolution of church governance through pivotal moments in religious history.

Grier's work includes incidental notices of other significant councils and an appendix containing observations on the First Four General Councils. This detailed historical exploration is an essential resource for theologians, historians, and anyone interested in understanding the foundations of Christian thought and the historical context of the Church's most important gatherings.
