The Synods of Constantinople, convened in 1166 and 1170, addressed theological disputes concerning the nature of Christ and the interpretation of scriptural passages, particularly the phrase "My Father is greater than I." The synod condemned those who misinterpret the teachings of the Church Fathers, emphasizing the importance of maintaining orthodox beliefs about Christ's dual nature as both divine and human. Anathemas were pronounced against those who reject traditional doctrines and the authority of past ecumenical councils, reinforcing the Church's stance on the proper understanding of Christ's humanity and divinity.
