Does American Vision Know the Nicene Creed?

Kevin Johnson created a transcript of Gary DeMar's "Final Response" to the signers of a letter asking for clarity on his eschatological view. Kevin's transcript and observations can't be shared, so I have attached a recording of that section.

Gary and his cohost Eric Rauch are discussing the Nicene Creed. After Gary reads the first sentence and makes a few comments, Eric immediately chimes in to make a point about how the Nicene Creed is "imprecise" and "not Biblically accurate" because the first sentence does not state that Jesus Christ created all things; only that God, the Father Almighty, is the maker of heaven and earth.

Small little problem here....if you read on, the Nicene Creed states the very thing Eric says it doesn't.

"We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible. And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds (æons), Light of Light, very God of very God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; by whom all things were made;..."

Does Gary correct Eric? No. I guess Gary didn’t know either.

Folks, if you're going to attack the creeds and have another cohost (Kim Burgess) call those who uphold them "idolators" and "goats," you might want to figure out first what's in them.
