I think there's some confusion.
If someone were to claim that Jesus was a created being, that would be heresy.
But that is not what Acts says, nor, to be fair, what the OP was trying to say.
A Kingmaker is not someone who creates a person who is King, but one who causes a person to become King. Similarly, this passage affirms that after Our Lord had achieved His work, the Father bestowed upon Him the status of Lord and King - His by right, but which He had laid aside in His incarnation. Is this something we can agree on?
Turning to the creeds - they are indeed universally accepted. The Westminster Confession is a specifically Reformed Protestant statement of faith, and a very Calvinist one at that. That is not to say the WC is wrong (although I don't subscribe to all of it personally), it is false to say it defines Christianity. It defines Calvinist Reformed Protestant Christanity. But the Church is bigger than Calvinism, and it is bigger than Protestantism.
