A greater question is does Christ now occupy a glorified/resurrected body? Bible says yes .... Nicene Creed would philosophically say no (unless it is lumped in as another non-biblical mystery).

Which is correct, Bible .... or Nicene Creed? (and don’t say the two are compatable .... historically, we have centuries of blood-shed that prove otherwise)

“In the beginning was the Word...

And the Word was with God

And the Word was God...

... and the Word was made Flesh and dwelt among us.”

The Nicene Creed is not the Eternal Word of God and is not to be regarded on the same level as the Word, no matter what churchy tradition exists.

Jesus taught us how to pray in the Lord’s prayer. That’s enough for me:

“Every word of God is pure: He is a shield unto them that put their trust in Him.
Add thou not unto his words, lest He reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.”

I just don’t get how Mormons don’t understand: you cannot add to the New Covenant, because if you add on the Book of Mormon to the New Covenant, or contract, you have changed that contract. Forbidden.

This kind of thinking will lead to...

Which is correct, Book of Mormon.... or Doctrines & Covenants?

How do you possibly get that out of the Nicene Creed?
