I was reminded of that incident from the Gospel according to John about the healed sick man in the bath in Vitezda. A man who bore his physical infirmity for more than 38 years (a lifetime in those days) awaiting healing. And it is not so much the miracle that the Savior performs over him that impresses me whenever I think of this biblical story as the conversation between Christ and the sick.

At the end of the first quarter of the tenth century a very difficult socio-economic situation developed in Bulgaria, which gave rise to a new anti-clerical and anti-feudal movement influenced by the teachings of Mani. After the death of the Bulgarian Tsar Simeon (927), several invasions of the Magyars (the medieval Hungarians) led the country to face many social problems, particularly during the rule of his son, Tsar Petar the First (927-69).

1987, April 2, headquarters of the №36050 division of the Bulgarian People's Army, Momchilgrad. The office of the chief of artillery intelligence. I, the private, sit at his desk and write "The Doctor of My Life" - those 13 pages of handwritten explanations on plaid sheets, on which it depends whether I will go to a military court to disband the army or not. Based on these explanations, the Deputy Chief of Military Counterintelligence of the Army Headquarters decided that I was "either innocent as an angel or the worst scum he had ever met," choosing the first option and terminating the investigation. Naturally, during my studies at the Theological Academy "St. Kliment Ohridski ”- Sofia I am under constant surveillance with all the negatives of this, but at least I knew that I was being watched, that maybe against me special technical means are used, now known as special intelligence means (in the sense of today's Bulgarian Law on Special intelligence means these are the technical means and the operational means for their application), but above all to take into account the human factor. The office of the Holy Synod was buzzing with paid, operative workers and agents, as well as volunteer informers and others with the lowest spiritual temperature.

reading and analysis of the poetic form of Arius's peculiar "Arian Bible" entitled "Thalia" is found in Rowan Williams and William Bright

Another important document on the decrees of the Council of Nicaea and early Arianism, authored by Emperor Constantine and addressed to Arius, is The Wicked Interpreter - Message of the Decrees of the Council of Nicaea, incipit: Κακὸς ἑρμηνεὺς (The Wicked Interpreter; dating: 333. The document ends with the words "Performed by Syncletius and Gaudentius, magistrates, when Paterius was prefect of Egypt, and was read in the palace." (43.) And on the other hand: May God protect you, beloved.

Being an "Antiochian", Arius chose Alexandria as his field of activity, where he was ordained a presbyter. Here he entered into a dispute with Bishop Alexander and began to preach about the Son of God that He was not born of eternity from the being of God the Father, but was created in time. If He also represents the highest creation of God, through Whom the world was created, but is not equal and is not eternal to the Father, and although He is called the Son, then this is not in essence, but in adoption.

After the regulation of the Arian problem with the first canon, the Second Ecumenical Council in its 2nd Canon emphasized the next main point for the reaction of the anti-Nicaean party against the trampling of the metropolitan autonomy and the authority of the provincial synods / councils as a final court. changing the status of the council convened in Serdica from an ecumenical to a local one, and also limited the appetites of the Roman bishop for supremacy. Pope Damasius (366-384) ratified the Creed at the Second Ecumenical Council, held in Constantinople (381), at which new Trinitarian heresies were exposed, but did not accept only the 3rd canon of the same council, which gave precedence. of the Bishop of Constantinople, on equating the dignity of the Primate of New Rome with that of the Primate of Old Rome.
