This forum is eschatology, a sub forum.
Indeed. All subforums of General Theology are areas where the Statement of Faith is in full effect (and not just those portions which deal with eschatology).
Can you specify which part of the Creed eschatology relates to?
The whole thing really, but two sections are particularly important:
Speaking of our Lord, God and Savior Jesus Christ:
“And He shall come again with glory (
Matthew 24:27)
to judge the living and the dead; (
Acts 10:42;
2Timothy 4:1)
whose Kingdom shall have no end. (
2 Peter 1:11)”
And then the conclusion of the Creed:
“I look for the resurrection of the dead, (
John 11:24;
1Corinthians 15:12-49;
Hebrews 6:2;
Revelation 20:5)
and the life of the world to come. (
Mark 10:29-30)”
By tne way, insofar as we have wound up discussing your views on Christology and Mariology, I would argue we are off-topic, and so if you do agree with the Creed you ought to post in one of those forums.
You sound like some inquisition attempting to force me to renounce my faith in Jesus Christ. Perhaps that is not your intention, but that is how it is coming across.
Forgive me if I have come across like that, for I would rather die than cause someone to renounce their faith in Jesus Christ.
As a fellow Christian, what I really would like is for you to understand what the creeds are, which is the difference between Christianity and various psuedo-Christian cults. Alll of the diverse families of Christians recognized as Christian on this site agree with the Nicene Creed, for example, the Seventh Day Adventists, the Methodists, the Baptists, the Episcopalians, the non-denominational Evangelicals, the Anglicans, the Eastern Orthodox, the Oriental Orthodox, the Lutherans, the Calvinists, the Presbyterians, and many others, even the Roman Catholics (although there is a variation between the Roman Catholic version of the creed and the Orthodox version, known as the
filioque, which the Statement of Faith accommodates). Indeed even the Plymouth Brethren are considered to be Nicene Christians
The creed is not regarded as superior to scripture, for if it were, the various
Sola Scriptura, Prima Scriptura and
Nuda Scriptura members from various Protestant and Restorationist backgrounds would not participate in it.
Groups that reject the Creed include the likes of Christian Science, the Jehovahs Witnesses, the Unitarians and Unitarian Universalists, the New Church (Swedenborgianism), Manicheans, Docetics, Arians (and contemporary neo-Arians), Oneness Pentecostals, Mormons, and so on, all of whom are highly controversial and not widely recognized as Christian.
I am also at a loss as to what part of the Nicene Creed you feel threatens your faith.
