Creed A formal statement of belief. The only NT creed was a simple confession of faith in Jesus as Lord and Christ, the Son of the living God. This simple, public confession was made at baptism, which was performed in the name of Jesus Christ. In later centuries men drew up more detailed formal statements; the best known creeds are the Nicene Creed and the Apostles' Creed. Since these later creeds are not Biblical requirements, they can never be considered as an authoritative criteria for NT Christianity.
