"Whether church matters are to be considered binding or not would have to be whether they are based soundly on the Word."

There was no New Covenant canonical Word when the First Council of Acts ch. 15, the First and Second Ecumenical Councils at Nicaea and Constantinople and the first Liturgies were established by the Apostolic successors.

First Ecumenical Council
Nicea, Asia Minor, 325 A.D.
Formulated the First Part of the Creed. Defining the divinity of the Son of God.

Second Ecumenical Council
Constantinople 381 A.D.
Formulated the Second Part of the Creed, defining the divinity of the Holy Spirit.

In the First and Second Councils the Apostolic successors and leaders of the church clearly defined some of the central dogmatic doctrines and dogmatic worship of the Church. It was only later that these same leaders defined the canon of the Word. So how can we receive from these God ordained leaders the Canon of Scripture and then reject the canonical creeds and canonical worship?
