Just the Facts

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ.” Ephesians 1:3 (NKJV)

In the precious and beautiful name of Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings.

While listening to the local “Christian” radio station I heard, “False religion is characterized by force.”  According to the speaker on the radio there’s only two kinds of religion, “true and false.”  The speaker is a follower of the Anthanasian Creed.  He went on to say, “You’ll know false religions because they’re forcing you to believe something.”  The irony of it all, “Forcing you to believe something” is exactly what the Anthanasian Creed is guilty of doing.  

If you should happen to hear unless one believes the doctrine of the “Trinity” they cannot be saved, it’s coming from a follower of the Anthanasian Creed.  Without the Anthanasian Creed the doctrine of the “Trinity” doesn’t exist.

“Whosoever will be saved, before all things, it is necessary that he hold the catholic (i. e. , universal, Christian) faith.”  The first sentence of the Anthanasian Creed.

“This is the catholic (Christian) faith; which except you believe faithfully and firmly, you cannot be saved.”  The last sentence of the Anthanasian Creed.

By the way, don’t look for the words “the Son is God” in the [Scriptures] because you won’t find them there.  They will be found in the Anthanasian Creed however, between the words “Whosoever will be saved” and “you cannot be saved.”  The Anthanasian Creed claims “before all things,” and it can only be traced back to 325-AD.

Then “he said to Jesus, Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.” And Jesus said to him, “Assuredly, I say to you, today you shall be with Me in Paradise.” Luke 23:42-43 (NKJV)

Would you say “he” that “said to Jesus, Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom” is saved?  I would.

If you’re a follower of the Anthanasian Creed, keep this one thing in mind, any attempt to link that creed to [Biblical] truths will prove one thing, facts aren’t important to you.  Man’s understanding of the [Scriptures] maybe, but not well established facts.  

God bless.
