Ramsay MacMullen examines the procedural and political mechanisms that shaped early Christian orthodoxy during the pivotal church councils of the third to sixth centuries. By analyzing the transition from consensus-based decision-making to the formalization of majority voting, the author provides a rigorous historical account of how theological disputes were resolved and codified into institutional doctrine.
