Creed

The word creed comes from the Latin credo, the very first word of the Nicene Creed, meaning “I believe.” For generations innumerable since this text was first contrived, Christians have heartily expressed their beliefs in God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, but through time these beliefs have taken different, even opposing views. The heretical teaching of Arius in the AD 4th Century and Athanasius’ counterarguments to it illustrate perfectly the need for a clear and definitive Creed by which

There is much debate within evangelicalism about the role of confessions and creeds. In “The Creedal Imperative”, Carl Trueman addresses this by stating his belief that confessions and creeds are “vital to the present and future well-being of the church” through life and through worship (13). Trueman finds it important to argue that confessions and creeds fall in line with the belief that Scripture alone is the main source of revelation and authority, yet also noticing the synthetic and public nature

The Nicene Creed was created in two great church councils of Nicaea and Constantinople, who sought to deal with the divinity of Christ and that of the spirit which had been challenged by a priest from Alexandria. The prayer begins with an affirmation of the belief in God, where it apparently identifies Him as the only creator. Nevertheless, it does not mean that Jesus and the Spirit did not take part in the act of creation, as the Creed identifies the Spirit as the giver of life and through the Son

degree did the Nicene Creed unify Christian Beliefs?” This question is relevant because Christianity is a common and important religion in the modern world, with an estimated 22.4% of the world practicing the religion as of 2015; these followers have unified beliefs and practices because of the Nicene Creed, established in 325 CE and later amended in 381 CE, and what’s outlined in it. The three primary issues that will be addressed in this investigation are what the Nicene Creed was, what it meant for

between the people, and turmoil for the Church. A firm understanding of Christ’s true nature was vital to unify the Christology into one understanding. As Christians it was important to have an overall understanding of Christ’s true nature. The Nicene Creed provided this for the people and established the beliefs that continue to be present today. Third, apply what you have learned to your contemporary Christian fellowship/church experience? The Christology of my Church aligns closely to the Nicene

The Nicene Creed is the creed or profession of faith that was adopted in the city of Nicaea by the first ecumenical council, which met there in the year 325. At that time, the text ended after the words "We believe in the Holy Spirit", after which an anathema was added. The doctrine of the Trinity is commonly expressed as: "One God, three Persons”, but this word "Trinity" does not appear in the Bible. So the doctrine is formally defined in the Nicene Creed, which declares Jesus to be: "God of God

According the  dictionary.com the word creed oringinates from the old English word credo meaning, "an article or statement of Christian beliefs" which eventually broadens to "any statement in which I believe". This creed is not the basis of teaching, rather it supports the sound doctrine of the Bible, where we will specifically be focusing on Colossians 1:15-20. The Nicene Creed defends TRUE Christian faith by fully clarifying the deity of Christ, thus safeguarding the apostles teachings. We will

heresies of Arianism and Sabellianism, whose views on the Trinity were unacceptable to many Christians. As a response, the councils composed creeds such as the Nicene Creed and Athanasian Creed. In current times, philosophers Jeff Brower and Michael Rea try to explain the doctrine of the Trinity through analogies. I will discuss the two heresies and creeds, as well as the analogies presented. Arianism denies the true divinity of Christ as seen by many Christians. It does not entirely deny the
