Try explaining to God how you supported the subjection of the Holy Bible to the Non-Biblical Nicene Creeds (sic)

As you can see here, The Nicene Creed according to the scriptures, every concept in the Nicene Creed is taken directly from and supported by scripture. In other words, the creed is not superior to the Bible; it is not a replacement for the Bible; it merely summarizes some of its key teachings.

Of course, after the Nicene Creed was on its way out to the junkyard of History a Christian Apostate Emperor by the name of Justin the Apostate brought it back to create a fission in the expanding non-Nicene Christianity in hopes of restoring paganism.

I was not aware of this. Do you have any well-established non-biased historical sources that back this up? If so, would you please provide them.

I could go into the weak underpinning of the Creed, and how it contradicts the vast amount of evidence in the Bible

Please do. I have provided you with a source that does the opposite. I am more than interested in learning if you can back up your assertion.

You just tell yourself that your (sic) obeying God by not sustaining a Latter Day Saint .... while you in full conscience perpetuate a biblical and religious fraud just because it’s 1687 years old.

I provided 14 reasons why I cannot support a Latter Day Saint HERE. You were unwilling and/or unable to contradict a single one. Instead, you resorted to an unsubstantiated and obviously incorrect attack on a statement of faith ... or in other words, rather than rebut facts, you attempted to change the subject.

Conclusion: I challenge you to substantiate your assertions with evidence. Furthermore, I challenge you to answer the issues raised in my original response. And finally, I challenge you to do the latter before you embark on another wild goose chase.

Very silly thing to post on an unprovable, metaphysical thread. At least you did not ask for PROOF.
