RE: I don’t believe Creeds, or Councils, are binding.

Surely you don’t have any objections to either the Apostle’s Creed or the Nicene Creed.

[daniel1212]

With the exception of “one baptism for the remission of sins,” as it is the faith that baptism confesses that appropriates forgiveness. (Acts 10:43-47; 15:7-9) And “ holy catholic and apostolic Church” as in small “c” with the apostolic foundation. (Eph. 2:20)

Well MY followers sure do! (Even though I wrote one of our own for them...)

Let's start with the Nicene Creed because it best illustrates my point about institutional Christianity and the hubris of it's leadership. The first question you have to ask is which Nicene Creed do you look at as the rule of your faith. The creed that was created by theologians brought together and led by a pagan in 325 AD, or the creed that was adopted by a state-church coalition in 381 AD.

I think in either case a we see a statement that "all right minded Christians" are expected to revere as equal to Scripture. Additionally, in both cases we have a statement being created by men who are driven by a political agenda and the belief that they alone can define what is truth and all 'right minded Christians" must blindly adhere to it.
