 Chalcedonian Creed - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The creed became standard orthodox doctrine, while the church of Alexandria dissented, holding to Cyril's formula of the oneness of Christ’s nature as the incarnation of God the Word.
The Chalcedonian Creed was written amid controversy between the western and eastern churches over the meaning of the incarnation (see Christology), the ecclesiastical influence of the emperor, and the supremacy of the Roman Pope.
The western churches readily accepted the creed, but the eastern churches did not, resulting in a split in the Byzantine church.

 Chalcedonian - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Chalcedonian churches are those Christian churches who follow the Christological teachings of the Council of Chalcedon, in contradistinction to Nestorians, Monophysites and Monothelites.
The primary emphasis of Chalcedonian christology is the full humanity and full divinity of Jesus, the second person of the Holy Trinity.
The Chalcedonian churches, which accept this council, include the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches, as well as most Protestant churches.

 Is a Chalcedonian Christology Coherent?
Moulder’s way of keeping consistent with the Chalcedonian claim that Jesus is both God and man is by redefining what it means to be God.
Instead of being homoousios with the Father with regards to the omnies, Christ is homoousios with the Father in respect to having the love of the Father, or as Moulder would term it, homoagapen with the Father.
The full ontological existence of God was in Christ (who was also ontologically a complete human being), but the essential properties (omnies) were not being exercised in Him.

 Ancient Creeds
The Chalcedonian Creed deals primarily with the relationship between the human and the divine in Jesus Himself.
I believe in the Holy Spirit; the Holy catholic Church; the communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and the life everlasting.
The Nicene Creed deals with the relationship of Jesus and the Holy Spirit to the Father and lays the foundation of our doctrine of the Trinity.

 Pannenberg and the Chalcedonian Creed
The Chalcedonian definition insists that the divine nature and the human nature are unmixed.
The alternative is a Christology, "from above", as revealed in the Chalcedonian creed, which begins with Jesus' divinity and in which the incarnation thus becomes central.
In this matter, we must agree with the Chalcedonian definition and the theology of Pannenberg, in affirming both Jesus' true humanity and his sinlessness.

 Chalcedonian Creed
This creed was adopted at the Fourth Ecumenical Council, held at Chalcedon, located in what is now Turkey, in 451, as a response to certain heretical views concerning the nature of Christ, namely Apollinarianism (lessening Christ's manhood), Nestorianism (endangering the unity of Christ's unique person), and Eutychianism (absorbing of the human into the divine).
It established the orthodox view that Christ has two natures (human and divine) that are unified in one person.
Not parted or divided into two persons, but one and the same Son, and only begotten, God the Word, the Lord Jesus Christ; as the prophets from the beginning [have declared] concerning Him, and the Lord Jesus Christ Himself has taught us, and the Creed of the holy Fathers has handed down to us.

 History of Dogma - Volume IV (ii.ii.i.iv.iv)
It is undeniable that Chalcedonian orthodoxy was first firmly established in the East in the age of Justinian, that is to say, inner agreement with the Chalcedonian Creed was then first secured to any large extent, and this without abandoning Cyril’s religious theology, but on the contrary while emphasising it and giving it the preference.
While giving a position of exclusive authority to the interpretation of the Chalcedonian Creed on the lines of the theology of Cyril, he hit upon the sense in which it was understood by the Church of the East, i.e.
While, owing to his faith, he stood in an intimate relation to Greek religious feeling, the Chalcedonian formula presented itself to him as an inviolable doctrine promulgated by the Church.

 Historical Christology
This is a question that the early Church struggled with during the first 400 years of the Church.
It was these questions and heresies that motivated the Church to dig into the Scriptures and come up with a unified belief and formula about who Jesus Christ was which culminated in the Nicene and Chalcedonian Creeds.
It was not until the Councils of Nicea A.D. and Chalcedon A.D. that the matter was officially settled in the Church in what is known as The Nicene and Chalcedonian Creeds.

 biology - Christology
The belief that Jesus was only human was opposed by church leaders such as Paul, and eventually came to be held only by sects which were soon subsumed by orthodox churches anyway, such as the Ebionites and (according to Jerome) the Nazarenes.
Some important controversies have included the controversy with Arians over Christ's divinity and relationship with the Father, which led to the adoption of the Nicene creed; the controversy over Nestorianism, and that over Monophysitism (and its derivates Monothelitism and Monoenergism) which led to the adoption of the Chalcedonian view of Christology.
This creed was adapted at the Council of Chalcedon, and was greatly influenced by the Tome of Leo which Pope Leo I sent to be read at that council.

 ESSENTIALS OF REFORMED DOCTRINE
The goal of the written work is to encourage the catechumens to become acquainted with Scripture, our creeds, and some of our Protestant Reformed literature.
Chiefly, an effort was made to make the question and answer section somewhat more comprehensive and to make the written work appended to each lesson easier to do.
The lessons are somewhat longer than in the older edition, and the catechete will probably find that it is impossible to cover all the lesson in one session.
