Still not sure I totally understand what you are asking, but let me toss this out there:

-Adherence to a particular creed is not what saves a person, but their faith in Jesus does.

-Creeds are useful as summation of what Scripture teaches, and a person may not agree with all of the components at any particular moment in their life. But over time, the Holy Spirit will nurture them to a fuller understanding of the truth.

-A new Christian, heck, even some older ones, may not fully understand every jot and tittle Scripture teaches, or even misunderstand it for a season, but that doesn’t mean through study and prayer the Holy Spirit won’t illuminate them over the course of their walk with God.
