Hey Disciper
Interesting read (although I didnt get though it all... Im at work)
Some of the facts about our beliefs aren’t quite right.
I’ve never heard it said there was a sudden turn to apostacy after the apostles died. There was a gradual deviation from bible teaching and a gradual adoption of pagan rituals. We also do not believe there was always a group that held to our beliefs.
As for Christ not being created, not sure how you could view it any other way. If your going to say that God creating Jesus comes from pagan doctrine you would have to arrive at the same conclusion regarding the trinity. There is no evidence to support that the apostles regard ed Christ as part of a trinity and it wasnt until the Council of Nicea that the church officially adopted it as doctrine.
