Development of Trinity Doctrine from the Old to the New Testament JW's accept this blindly and believe it.

Bettenson, Henry: Documents of the Christian Church The "majority who disliked" firmly believed that Jesus was God, they didn't like the Greek terms used to describe Jesus deity, not that they rejected the deity itself! The opposition was also from those who "misunderstood" what the creed was saying. In other words, they felt the creed could lend support to Sabellianism (modalism, as taught today by the United Pentecostal church UPCI) of which they were equally opposed, when in fact it did not! Equally damaging is the fact that Athanasius, who was in agreement with the creed, was banished as well as Arius! These two represented the two main factions in the Nicene council! Deception Exposed: The deception is in projecting the false impression into the readers mind that the majority who opposed the Nicene council rejected the deity of Christ and the personality of the Holy Spirit.
