Statement of Faith
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 his
Father before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, very God
of very God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the
Father; by whom all things were made; who for us men and for our
salvation came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy
Ghost of the Virgin Mary, and was made man; and was crucified also
for us under Pontius Pilate; he suffered and was buried; and the
third day he rose again according to the Scriptures, and ascended
into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of the Father; and he
shall come again, with glory, to judge both the quick and the dead;
whose kingdom shall have no end. And I believe in the Holy Ghost
the Lord, and Giver of Live, who proceedeth from the Father [and
the Son]; who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped
and glorified; who spake by the Prophets.
We
believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth. And
in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by
the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary; suffered under Pontius
Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; He descended into hell;
the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven,
and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from
thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead. We
believe in the Holy Ghost; the holy Church,
the communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection
of the body; and the life everlasting.
(from the Nicene and Apostle's Creeds)
