The Bible, Or The Anthanasian Creed?

The Bible is trustworthy as is. It tells us that Jesus is the Son of God and whoever believes in Him will be saved, and yet the Anthanasian Creed came along to say that unless one believes “the Son is God,” “you cannot be saved.” Sadly, many have taken this as truth. This makes the Bible subject to the Anthanasian Creed. I’ve sent this question to many. If I gave you the names of those that I have sent it to over a period of four years, you’d recognize the majority of them. To date I’ve only received one [direct] answer to it “Yes, and no,” which really isn’t an answer at all. Here’s my question: Would you say the person confessing Jesus is the Son of God, the Lord and the Savior of their life, saved according to the [Scriptures], and rejects the Anthanasian Creed altogether, is saved? When I say “rejects the Anthanasian Creed altogether” I mean, treat the Anthanasian Creed as if it never existed at all. As one who loves Jesus, and who’s not ashamed to tell others about Him, I would say the person is saved. Where does the blame lie for believing this person is not saved according to the Scriptures? The Bible, or the Anthanasian Creed? Who’s answerable for one having to believe “the Son is God” to be saved? The Bible, or those responsible for the Anthanasian Creed making its way into the twenty first century? As always with me, I don’t blame any person past or present. The Anthanasian Creed is the problem.
