Over
the
____________________
days
after
the
resurrection
,
Jesus
appeared
to
his
apostles
ten
times
.
Based
on
the
stories
,
he
seemed
to
be
trying
to
prove
to
them
that
he
was
,
in
fact
,
____________________
and
also
remind
them
to
continue
to
spread
his
____________________
.
The
____________________
are
said
to
have
written
the
New
Testament
,
although
many
scholars
believe
it
was
written
later
than
the
lives
of
the
apostles
.
The
New
Testament
includes
teachings
of
____________________
,
stories
of
his
life
,
and
stories
and
preaching
from
the
apostles
and
other
followers
of
Jesus
.
It
became
the
basis
for
a
new
____________________
that
grew
up
?
somewhat
secretly
,
at
first
,
since
the
____________________
was
against
it
.
Over
the
next
three
hundred
____________________
,
though
,
Christianity
became
the
dominant
religion
in
the
____________________
Empire
?
which
included
southern
Europe
,
____________________
,
the
Middle
East
,
and
northern
Africa
.
But
many
disagreements
arose
about
how
Christianity
should
be
practiced
.
In
325
AD
,
the
Roman
Emperor
Constantine
the
Great
called
a
meeting
of
Christian
leaders
throughout
the
____________________
to
hash
out
the
details
of
Christianity
.
Many
things
were
decided
at
that
meeting
.
One
that
is
important
to
us
as
UUs
is
that
the
Council
decided
that
God
was
a
____________________
,
made
up
of
a
Father
(
God
)
,
____________________
(
Jesus
)
,
and
Holy
Spirit
(
a
feeling
that
inspires
people
)
.
This
was
in
response
to
a
Church
leader
named
Arius
(
from
Alexandria
in
Egypt
)
who
said
God
had
created
Jesus
,
so
Jesus
was
not
____________________
or
co
-
equal
with
God
.
This
was
a
____________________
view
that
God
is
one
.
But
the
Council
of
Nicea
decided
Christianity
would
be
trinitarian
,
officially
believing
that
God
is
in
____________________
parts
.
This
made
Unitarian
Christians
____________________
(
people
who
disagree
with
the
accepted
belief
)
,
and
many
were
persecuted
or
even
killed
over
the
next
many
centuries
.
Although
there
are
other
branches
of
Christianity
?
including
the
Eastern
Orthodox
Christian
Church
which
branched
off
early
,
the
main
branch
that
dominated
Europe
and
the
Middle
East
for
centuries
was
the
Roman

Church
