The Council of Constantinople, in the Year 428.

NEstorius having been chosen Bishop of Constantinople, in 428. after Sisinnius's Death, Philip, * 1.1 an ancient Priest of the Church of Constantinople, found fault with some of Nestorius's Sermons, and refused to Communicate with him. This provoked Nestorius, who caused him to be cited to his Council, and persuaded Coelestius to accuse him. But Philip being come to the Council, and Coelestius not appearing, Philip remained fully justified. This Council is spoken of in the Memorial which St. Cyril gave to Possidonius, and which was carried to Rome.

We conclude here the former Part of the Third Volume, which gives an Account of the Au∣thors of the Fifth Age of the Church, that we may not enter upon the History of the Council of Ephesus, which we shall speak of in the latter Part.
