Show Notes:Dr. Ted Campbell is a returning guest to The Weight, this time for an introduction into the Nicene Creed. 2025 marks the 1700th anniversary of the Council of Nicaea, which originally created the Nicene Creed, a statement of faith that declares God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and affirms the divinity and humanity of Jesus. The Nicene Creed is one of the most widely used Christian creeds, and unites Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, and many Protestant denominations.Ted is a church historian and a recently retired professor and pastor who served as the president of Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary from 2001-2005, and then as the Associate Professor of Church History at Perkins School of Theology at Southern Methodist University.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss another significant anniversary happening this year. We recently aired CCP165: On the Nicene Creed as 2025 marks the 1700th anniversary of the creed. This year also marks the 100th anniversary of what's known as the Scopes Trial (or the “Monkey Trial”) - a sensational trial in American history where the debate over creation vs. evolution entered the courtroom. Set in the small town of Dayton, Tennessee back in 1925, the trial set defenders of evolutionary theory against those who wanted public schools to teach what was considered to be a biblical view of the origin of the world's inhabitants. Episode Links As Dr. White mentioned, the church plays a huge role when it comes to apologetics - helping people to know why they believe what they believe and to be able to give an account of their faith to others. This has always been a priority at Mecklenburg Community Church. In fact, you may be interested in checking out the following series that were given by Dr. White, all related to apologetics and/or faith vs. science: “Doubt” “Don't Check Your Brains at the Door” “The Science of God” “Astrophysics… for People Who Are Open to God” “Why Believe?” There are two resources we'd suggest you check out related to the conversation today. For a better understanding of the Hebrew mindset, we'd suggest Our Father Abraham written by Marvin R. Wilson. And then for more on the interplay between faith and science, we suggest you read How I Changed My Mind About Evolution, edited by Kathryn Applegate and J.B. Stump. Finally, today's discussion was sparked by an article on NPR by Scott Neuman and Nell Greenfieldboyce titled “100 years after evolution went on trial, the Scopes case still reverberates” outlining the cultural ramifications of this trial even 100 years later. You can read or listen to that article HERE.

They are questions all of us ask. Who am I? Why am I here? How does all of this exist? How we answer these questions will deeply shape the way people live their lives. The Nicene Creed goes directly to the point with the declaration, “We believe in one God… maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.” The reality that God is the maker of heaven and earth declares so much more than the words say. First, this truth is a reminder about the holiness of God, that He is other, separate, apart from creation. There is Creator and there is creation. They are separate, not one in the same. Second, everything that exists owes its existence to God and finds it being and purpose in Him. And third, as the Maker of all things, everything in creation, including people, exist for His glory. Our joy and meaning in life is found when the Gospel opens our eyes to this reality and we live to glorify Jesus and enjoy Him forever.

Jesus had a remarkable way with people. He spoke to their most intimate questions in their deep need for God—whether they knew them or not. In Encounters with Jesus, we peer into a few of his most memorable encounters as described by St. John the Apostle in his Gospel. Other than the blessed Virgin, Pontius Pilate is the only mortal human being named directly in the Nicene Creed, and for good reason, as it is on his authority that Jesus Christ was crucified. But during his interrogation of Jesus, Pilate finds him enigmatic and not a little frightening. Who is this man? What is he really up to? But while Pilate worries about his reputation before the Emperor, Jesus offers Pilate what he really needs, salvation.

John Calvin taught that there are two essential aspects to all true knowledge: knowledge of God and knowledge of self. These two beliefs are deeply interconnected. To rightly know God is to rightly understand ourselves and the world around us. Belief in the idea of God is virtually universal; most people around the world believe in some concept of the divine. However, the Nicene Creed points way beyond a mere spirituality, calling us to belief in the One True God defined as Father and revealed as Almighty. While short in words, this phrase is packed with meaning which points us to the God revealed in the Bible and made known in the story of the Old Testament. As God met Moses at Mount Sinai in the book of Exodus, He revealed His true character and nature. What we find is a God who is present and involved in the lives of His people, who loves and forgives, yet who also “by no means clears the guilty.” The True and Living God chose to make Himself known; therefore, we don’t have to wonder or speculate. What we believe about God matters greatly, because we are always moving toward the object of our worship, being shaped by our idea of God or whatever becomes the god of our lives.

He begins by recounting a personal story about his childhood vision of a hoverboard, which he uses to illustrate our human tendency to hope for the future. The sermon emphasizes that looking forward to Jesus's return provides a "stabilizing work" in our lives and a "right perspective" for living in the present. Pastor Scott concludes by encouraging listeners to live fully today, not just for the hope of tomorrow. For more information about the church, please visit Northwestvineyard.org .

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop speaks with Samuel, host of The Remnant Podcast, about the intersections of biblical prophecy, Gnostic traditions, transhumanism, and the spiritual battle unfolding in our age. The conversation moves from Dr. David Hawkins' teachings and personal encounters with the Holy Spirit to questions of Lucifer, Archons, and the distortions of occult traditions, while also confronting timelines of 2025, 2030, and 2045 in light of technological agendas from Palantir, Neuralink, and the United Nations. Together they explore the tension between organic human life and the merging with machines, weaving in figures like Blavatsky, Steiner, and Barbara Marx Hubbard, and tying it back to cycles of history, prophecy, and the remnant who remain faithful.

Samuel describes his path from Hawkins' teachings into a life-altering encounter with Jesus, which reshaped his spiritual compass and allowed him to question parts of Hawkins' framework that once seemed untouchable. This shift also opened his eyes to the living presence of Christ as a North Star in discerning truth.A central thread is the nature of Lucifer and the entities described in Gnostic, biblical, and esoteric traditions. Samuel wrestles with the reality of Lucifer not just as ego, but as a non-human force tied to Archons, Yaldabaoth, and Ahriman. This leads to the recognition that many leaders openly revere such figures, pointing to a deeper spiritual battle beyond mere metaphor.The discussion examines the suppression and resurgence of Gnosticism. Stewart references Frances Yates' historical research on the rediscovery of Neoplatonism during the Renaissance, which fused with Christianity and influenced the scientific method. Yet, both men note the distortions and dangers within occult systems, where truth often hides alongside demonic inversions.Samuel emphasizes the importance of discernment, contrasting authentic spiritual awakening with the false light of occultism and New Age thought. He draws on the Book of Enoch's account of fallen angels imparting forbidden knowledge, showing how truth can be weaponized when separated from God. The law of attraction, he argues, exemplifies this duality: biblical when rooted in faith, sorcery when used to “become one's own god.”Transhumanism emerges as a major concern, framed as a counterfeit path to evolution. They compare Hawkins' idea of homo spiritus with Barbara Marx Hubbard's transhumanist vision and Elon Musk's Neuralink. Samuel warns of “hijacked timelines” where natural spiritual gifts like telepathy are replaced with machine-based imitations, echoing the warnings of Dune's Butlerian Jihad.Technology is interpreted through a spiritual lens, with algorithms mimicking attractor patterns, social media shaping reality, and Starlink rendering the internet omnipresent. Samuel identifies this as Lucifer's attempt to counterfeit God's attributes, creating a synthetic omniscience that pulls humanity away from organic life and into controlled systems.Finally, the conversation grounds in hope through the biblical concept of the remnant. Samuel explains that while elites pursue timelines toward 2025, 2030, and 2045 with occult enlightenment and digital convergence, those who remain faithful to God, connected to nature, and rooted in Christ form the remnant. This small, organic community represents survival in a time when most will unknowingly merge with the machine, fulfilling the ancient struggle between the sons of light and the sons of darkness.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they dive into the Nicene Creed, as this year marks its 1700th anniversary. As the early church absolutely exploded in growth - from about 7,500 followers in A.D. 100 to around 30 million by A.D. 310 - the challenge and question facing them was this: How would they stay united? How would this fast-growing, quickly expanding movement remain unified in vision and values, mission and purpose? The answer became clear, and led to the Nicene Creed being written in A.D. 325 by the Council of Nicaea. Episode Links Modern-day churches are increasingly turning to the words of this ancient creed to ground themselves in the foundations of the Christian faith. In fact, Daniel Silliman recently wrote an article in Christianity Today titled, “How the Nicene Creed Became Cool Again” that you may be interested in reading. In honor of the Nicene Creed's 1700th anniversary, Dr. White recently kicked off a series at Mecklenburg Community Church titled “Credo,” which is the Latin word for creed. If you're interested in checking out this series, you can find it HERE. It's particularly important in our world today to ground the church in the words of the creed, especially in light of the findings of the most recent “State of Theology” survey showing that culturally, there has been a significant lapse in our understanding of what it means to be a Christian - among Christians. You can find that study HERE. Finally, if you are interested in doing some additional study about the Nicene Creed, there are a few books that we would recommend on this topic: Mark Noll, Turning Points; Phillip Cary, The Nicene Creed; Jared Ortiz and Daniel A. Keating, The Nicene Creed; and J.N.D. Kelly, Early Christian Doctrines.

In this message from the Guardrails series, Pastor Scott Engebretson moves from the Nicene Creed's confession of God the Father to the person of Jesus. He recounts a powerful encounter with a dying man named Carl, who taught him more about Jesus than he could ever preach. Through Carl's story, Pastor Scott reveals that Jesus is the "living God" and the one "in whom all things hold together." The sermon highlights that Jesus, the King of all kings and the Lord of all lords, draws us into eternity and is working to reconcile all things to himself.

In AD 325, over three hundred bishops gathered to answer a question that threatened to tear the church apart: Was Jesus Christ truly God, or merely the greatest of God's creatures? Their answer, refined at Constantinople in 381, became the Nicene Creed - the most universally confessed statement of Christian faith across all denominations. Pastor Tim Winterstein is the author of the new book “Worshiped and Glorified: A Study of the Nicene Creed,” available from Concordia Publishing House.  The Rev. Tim Winterstein, pastor of University Lutheran Church in Bloomington, IN, joins the Rev.

Are Mormons Christian? According to most Christians, no. According to them, Jesus Christ is literally in the name of the church! We dig into the bedrock on this issue to see what does or does not qualify as “Christian”. After that, we dive into the final of the Givens trilogy, The Christ Who Heals. It's more or less a 130-page missionary discussion with a few dribbles of ancient theologian writings.

1700 years ago, a Christian council was held that defined the church from that point forward. Does this meeting of Christian bishops matter today? What were they fighting over? Why is it astonishing that what they said is still affirmed by all Christians everywhere this many years later? In this episode, we seek to show a quick history and the overall importance of the Nicene Creed.ResourcesThe Nicene Creed: What You Need to Know about the Most Important Creed Ever Written by Kevin DeYoungThe Nicene Creed: An Introduction by Phillip Cary“Confessions are about what we believe; creeds are about in whom we believe. Creeds are not meant as comprehensive statements of the Christian faith; they're instead pledges of allegiance to the three persons of the Trinity.” -Donald FairbairnC.S. Lewis said they there's two ways to expose your blind spots: Go into the future to see what we missed or go back to the past to see what we forgot about. We haven't discovered how to go into the future yet, he says, but we do have a way of going into the past which is writing old writings and books. Connect With Us providenceomaha.org | Instagram | Facebook Email Us formation@providenceomaha.org

Seventeen centuries ago, in the bustling town of Nicaea, over 300 bishops from across the Roman Empire gathered, summoned by Emperor Constantine to resolve a crisis shaking the very foundations of Christianity. At stake was nothing less than the identity of Jesus Christ: was He truly God, co-eternal and of the same substance as the Father, or merely a created being—a divine yet lesser creature? Today, the fruit of that monumental gathering—the Nicene Creed—remains the definitive measure of Christian identity.  The Rev. John David Duke, pastor of Salem Lutheran Church in Buffalo, NY and adjunct professor of Old Testament Theology at Concordia Lutheran Theological Seminary in St. Catherines, Ontario, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to discuss the Nicene Creed.  This episode originally aired on March 7, 2025. Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light.
