The Nicene Creed: Seven Minute Seminary

What is the Nicene Creed? What is its historical context? Why does it matter to the church? Dr. Charles Gutenson shares with us today.

Thank you for this concise overview of this Creed.

I'll help you out.
I finished this video. And I'm like Arminian and believe people can fail salvation from this scripture I found Galatians 5:19-21 that when sinning that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. Galatians was Paul's teachings, proves it can fail eternal salvation. Grandpa believed he couldn't go to Hell, and Arminians believe he could.
I'm against suicide. I was depressed also to suicidal. I almost did suicide as a 5-Point Calvinist. And these scriptures got me more hope.
I became more Arminian now from these scriptures I posted on here. I believe people can fail salvation.

Loving God is wanting to be useful for him much. What if a person could do that much of his time? And I enjoy working from this. People who enjoy working. When it's more likely to be boring to non-Christians.

Mark 9:33-35
New American Standard Bible 1995
33 They came to Capernaum; and when He [a]was in the house, He began to question them, “What were you discussing on the way?” 34 But they kept silent, for on the way they had discussed with one another which of them was the greatest. 35 Sitting down, He called the twelve and *said to them, “If anyone wants to be first, [b]he shall be last of all and servant of all.”
.
This is for Christian world domination. Why to raise kids Christians. God Son Jesus said similarly to whoever is useful the most is the best merited of the apostles. Useful merit for eternal rewards and competition with other Christians. With God Son Lord Jesus Christ faith teaching, people will want to be useful for the kingdom of Heaven, which usefulness happens on Earth and if any other place. We need to help this world as much as we can!
This text could motivate, supposed to be Christian people, to do all types of usefulness. Chores, volunteering, grade school, high school, college, and work. Good people, this world needs them.

[c.a.g.]

The Son "came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Ghost of the Virgin Mary, and was made MAN."

So in short, the religious leaders back in the day didn't know anything about God and wanted to get everybody to decide what to preach. I wouldn't hang my hat on any religious belief system that stemmed from all this.

[davidbradberry]

There IS ONE GOD and one Mediator between GOD and men, THE MAN (the human Messiah) Yeshua..

[davidbradberry]

There is ONE GOD THE FATHER....I believe Jesus could tell the TRUTH! John 17:3. Paul, 1 CORINTHIANS 8:6.
JESUS HAS A GOD: THE ALMIGHTY Revelation 1:6, 3:2, 12. Deuteronomy 6:4.

7 minutes talk Thousands of years error.

[SopaterTheBerean]

To say that the council ended the controversy is at best revisionist history; it's an absolute lie... it only turned the controversy more violent. These men were not producing the fruit of the Spirit in general amd thus we should not think that their new doctrine was a product of the Spirit. By their fruit you will know them... this is when Christianity became more about mental assent than following Christ. Orthodoxy can have their creeds. Let those who claim to be disciples follow the teachings of Jesus!

[claudiozanella]

In Nicea they didn't understand that the Holy Spirit is the Father. In other terms the Father is here in the limited form of a spirit "God is a spirit". ("Spirit" means that the God's words are spoken by NOBODY, i.e. God is absent). Jesus has thus the Father who is a spirit and calls Him sometimes "Father", sometimes "Spirit (Holy)" according to circumstances. But they are just two equivalent names. For example Jesus could have said "..but blasphemy against the Father will not be forgiven..." instead of "..but blasphemy against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven...", they are equivalent. Thus, no "third divine person", no triune God exists.
