Hey Baile,

If you go by the Desert Fathers and Cappodocian fathers which were not part of the creation of the Church in 325 you will realize that the Church had believed all these things about Christ as early as the gospels were written in the 1st Century

It's wrong relayed information taught in some schools that it was all made up in 325. The fact is that Constantine had hundreds of bishops trying to create what was a "Filtered-Down/Peasant Poor" understanding of what the Mystics experienced in the desert and what mystics who had visions of Christ had.

For example- The trinity was a belief spreading in the Mediterranean long before the Roman Catholic Church was established.

The sad part about what happened in 325 was that Christianity met Empire and they married and Christianity was turned into an imperial religion which later happened to Islam with Ottoman, and Buddhism with the dynasties in China and emperors in Japan.

This tends to happen with all religions. But Jesus was seen as a divine human figure who came to save people long before the Church was established, it was an Oral tradition that not only relied on the Gospels but also relied on the intuition of the mystics who had many differing opinions and beliefs.
