>> “you DO accept this, right?” <<

.
The Lord’s own do not accept any creed.

Creeds are the errors and deceptions of men. They mix a little truth with an ugly lie every time.

The Nicean creed contains the obvious lie: “We confess (I confess) one baptism for the remission of sins.”

Baptism does not give remission of sin. Baptism is an obedient affirmation of the saving blood of Christ by the believer. One must already be saved, or the ‘baptism’ is without meaning.

Thank you for responding e-s. Do you, however, affirm the Christological position in the earlier part of the Creed (God from God, light from light, true God from True God etc.) and the description of the Trinity in the earlier part of the Creed?

And, Mama -- do you agree with the tenets of the Nicene Creed, please?
