This is excellent stuff. It does need noted that just because social order has a creedal foundation by nature, and that previous ages have had Christian creeds providing order, it does not follow that we should build on those creeds without change. If they were perfect, the Millennium would have been manifest. Obviously, we need improvement, and so we need to have creeds that reflect better understanding of Scripture and our world, in order to have a more reformed social order, reflecting better the Kingdom of God. (For certainly a State Church resembled more the beast and false prophet than the disciples' awe and loving fellowship in the book of Acts.)
