I will say that the phrase of being "seated at the right hand of the Father" inspired at least one other question.
Does that presuppose that the Father has a physical form, and has a literal throne in heaven alongside the Son?
Or is that too literal an interpretation?
I think your post is exactly correct. That would go along with Genesis 1:26.
Btw --- I agree with 95% of your post # 105 on this Thread. Seems that you are a level-headed person.
P.S. ---> Normally - on websites/discussion boards I'm not a big fan of Mods & Admins intervening ,,, but - This Thread REALLY needs to get a Mod. in here and start zapping posts from a person that keeps derailing the Thread ! It is about The Nicene Creed --- NOT about endless rabbit trails taken/started by a quibbling person.
Extra - P.S. ---> Was typing and reading whilst you just replied/posted above. Cool ! Glad you liked it.
I guess I R are a weird duck in the Christian pond... I am a Baptistic ( believers Baptism - get'em all the wet ! ) after they have professed Faith in Christ . I also luuuve a good God-honoring liturgy. I love the 'Collects' ( congregational/Group prayer ) of Archbishop Thomas Cranmer of the first BOCP ( 1500's in England ) . I like the Creeds - even though some/many Baptists seem to get the heemee-jeemees if they hear the word 'Creed'. { Methinks that they ( and the other creed-haters ) still do not understand the word c a t h o l i c means "Universal" --- not Roman Catholics in the Vatican. } .
Creed simply means: "I believe" . Fogs my mind why so many people do not want to have a written statement of Faith. Guess they would prefer to make things up - which ever way the wind blows.
