How can we read the Bible in its “pristine purity” if from the start we are required to read it through the prism of fourth and fifth century creeds? These creeds were formulated without any explicit citing of the Scriptures (whose authority was supplanted by that of the church leaders who composed the creeds), and required all Christians to believe in a three-person “Godhead”. “Godhead” is a strange word that we didn’t really understand, and soon discovered that no one else did either. From the outset we were taught that God the Son, the second person of the triune Godhead, became incarnate as the man Jesus Christ.
