Abstract:

The first Church councils of the Church, which took part in the Ancient Christian East, are commonly associated with theological formulas that seek to defend the orthodox faith in the One and Triune God, and in Jesus Christ, truly God and truly human. These dogmatic formulations are inseparable from a deep concern for man and his salvation. This article follows the history of the first councils, pointing out the importance of this anthropological and soteriological factor.
