On the 24th of October, we got together to eat fried breakfasts and discuss the four ecumenical creeds (the apostle's creed, the nicene creed, the athanasian creed, and the council of chalcedon). Here are a few of the topics we brought up and discussed:
- Did Christ "descend to hell"? Why have some churches changed it to "descended to the dead"?
- What role, if any, should these creeds play in church life and discipline? Why are Christians generally unaware of these documents?
- What developments in Trinitarian theology or Christology did each subsequent document express?
Next up, Confessional Lutheran theology!
