The Historic Baptist View of the Nicene Creed – Truth Unites
Credo Fellow Gavin Ortlund helpfully examines the historical place of the creeds in the life of Baptists. He engages with the current conversation animated by the SBC Annual Meeting motion to add the Nicene Creed to the Baptist Faith and Message. He also addresses what the creed means by baptism for the forgiveness of sins.
