Strictly According to The Scriptures

Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?  1 John 5:5 (NKJV)

In the name of Him who was given all authority in heaven and on earth, Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings. See Matthew 28:18 (NKJV)

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”  John 3:16 (NKJV)

If your desire is to become a teacher of the [Bible], do so with the confidence that your message will be strictly according to the [Scriptures].  The Anthanasian Creeds way, adding onto what Jesus accomplished in the first century, is not the path you want to take.  God’s plan of salvation points us to [believing in] accepting what Jesus accomplished in the first century.  This is the only way of salvation, that “Whoever believes in” the [Biblical] Jesus “should not perish but have everlasting life.”

“So the Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Ghost is God. And yet they are not three Gods, but one God.” –The Anthanasian Creed. 

“And in this Trinity none is before or after other; none is greater or less than another; But the whole persons are coeternal together, and coequal:” –The Anthanasian Creed

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

If you [believe in] accept, unless you believe the doctrine of the trinity “you cannot be saved,” as the Anthanasian Creeds says, you should stay clear of the [Bible] because the [Bible] is clear, all you need to be saved is to [believe in] accept Jesus. 

Why anyone would believe the Anthanasian Creed has anything to do with the salvation of one’s soul, is beyond belief.

It is my obligation to tell you, as one who loves Jesus, stay clear of the Anthanasian Creed. There is a proper way to teach the Anthanasian Creed.  You must teach that the Anthanasian Creeds way to salvation is [absolutely] false, and not in line with God’s plan of salvation.

If becoming a member of a local church requires that one must believe the teachings of said church, make sure the Anthanasian Creed isn’t being taught as sound doctrine.  Jesus’ teachings are all you need.  In this case the words Jesus spoke in John 3:16 alone, should settle the matter.       

God bless.
