The Arian controversy describes several controversies between the Christian Church fathers Arius and Athanasius related to Christology which divided the Christian church from before the Council of Nicaea in 325 to after the Council of Constantinople in 381. The most important of these controversies concerned the relationship between God the Father and Jesus Christ, with Arius defending the nontrinitarian position, while Athanasius supported the trinitarian position.
The early history of the controversy must be pieced together from about 35 documents found in various sources. The Trinitarian historian Socrates of Constantinople reports that Arius first became controversial under the bishop Achillas of Alexandria, when he made the following syllogism: he said, "If the Father begat the Son, he that was begotten had a beginning of existence: and from this it is evident, that there was a time when the Son was not. It therefore necessarily follows, that he had his substance from nothing".
Bishop Alexander of Alexandria was criticised for his slow reaction against Arius. Like his predecessor Dionysius, he has been charged with vacillation. The question that Arius raised had been left unsettled two generations previously. Therefore Alexander allowed the controversy to continue until he felt that it had become dangerous to the peace of the Church. Then he called a council of bishops and sought their advice. Once they decided against Arius, Alexander delayed no longer. He deposed Arius from his office, and excommunicated both him and his supporters.
Real title: "It's Written In Black"
"I don't know what you did to me,
I guess my soul do got lucky"
Fly, fly, it's what you did with me
And then taught me how to do it alone.
I won't regret the time that I met you
'cause it's the start of my world.
I can picture us happy.
I won't forget you don't worry...oh oh
CHORUS:
The sun is burning but still she cares.
Who you are is all she knows.
Deep inside this paper if you could see
What this angel means to me.
Well I, discovered that you have
Healing powers. My heart turned brand new.
I feel bad when your forehead's
Not relaxed, mine have confusions, too.
Wanna stay with you forever
Even if you live in freezers...oh oh
CHORUS:
The sun is burning but still she cares.
Who you are is all she knows.
Deep inside this paper if you could see
What this angel means to me. (2x)
