the First Methodist church on Thurs

science, and the noman pontiff was
to communicate the date to the
tthurches. This arrangement fixed
date of Easter Sunday as the Sunday
"following the 14th day of the pas
chal moon," and defined the paschal
moon as "the moon whose 14th day
followed the spring equinox." But
this ruling did not settle all difficul
ties. The third pftsza of the contro
versy arose from the divergent cal
endars and cycles In vogue In the
eastern and western church centers.

The time of the Crucifixion Is fixed
as coincident with the Jewish pass

calendar mouth "Nisan," the month
of the vernal equinox. The first ob

from the Christian Gospels them

Ecclesiastical history preserves three
distinct phases relating to the sub
sequent commemorative day which
came to be known as Easter. Al-1
though the observance of Easter was
at a very early period the practice
of the Christian church, a serious
difference as to the day for Its ob
servance arose between the Christians
of Jewish and of Gentile descent.
With the Jewish Christians, who as
sociated the deatn of Christ with the
sacrifice of the Paschal Lamb at the
Passover, which ended "on the 14t,h
day of the moon at evening." the j
Easter festival followed the paschal '
tradition, no matter what day of the
lunar month it chanced to fall upon, i
The Gentile Christians, on the other
hand, followed the Synoptic Gospels. !
identified the first day of the week.:
Sunday, as the day of Resurrection, :
and kept the preceding Friday as the 1
anniversary of the Crucifixion. This
was the pha-se of the controversy that
characterized the first centuries of
Christianity.
The second stage in the Easter con
troversy centers around the Council
of Nice. A. D. 325, where eo many
doctrinal points were given authen
tic sanction. This council was sum
moned by Emperor Constantine. The
decision of the council was that Eas
ter was to be kept on Sunday
throughout the Uirlstian world. It
was at this point that astronomical
science entered Into the controversy.
