Two addtional versions of the Creed in the Armenian Church
editThis the feree DOAJ paper (doi 10.24234/wisdom.v1i6.73 , OCLC 8600945845, researchgate.net) affirms that in addition to Nicene Creed, "two more Creeds are canonized and stored in the Armenian Church" written by Saint Gregory the Illuminator, adding "he Armenian church still accepts and retains the sacred Creed and during the Holy Mass, when the Creed is pronounced, every time the priest repeats confession of Saint Gregory". It continues saying:
Saint Gregory the Illuminator accepted the decisions of the Nicene creed and convented the Faith in the Armenian Apostolic Church, but unlike other Christian churches, added his confession which was based on the Holy Trinitarian creed adopted by the New Testament.
The second paper establishes a link between the role of Christianity in compacting the nation against the invaders and the juridical status of state religion conceded to Christianity by king Tiridates III of Armenia (250-330) in 301. It also says the state religion caused religion neutrality in Virq and Aghvan, giving a 40-years period of peace and prosperity concluded by Constantine the Great in 337. Armenia was the first country in ther world to have enfoced the freedom of religion for the believers in Jesus Christ God. The enforcement of a state religion could have influenced the proclamation of the Trinitarian dogma in the Council of Nicaea (325 BC). Therefore, it seems to be appropriate to cite both of the papers in the current WP article.
- P.S.
According to DOAJ, the scientific papers' author is employed at the Khachatur Abovian Armenian State Pedagogical University for which he contributes to the journal Wisdom (cf. philpapers.org, this number of Wisdom).
It is a WP:RS and citable source. Any comment would be appreciated.Philosopher81sp (talk) 18:35, 29 October 2020 (UTC) I apologize for the lenght but the topic needed to be adequately explained.
