About this ebook

This Fourth Council at the Persian city of Seleucia-Ctesiphon was directed at the consolidation of episcopal forces within the Persian church which remains outside of the authority of the state sanctioned Catholicos. By this point there is no concerned for foreign Roman influence, and the council does not address any concerns regarding Christological matters. However, the Church of the East continued to have difficulties with governance both within the Sassanid dominion and also outside of it.
