DECLARING OUR FAITH

 

     I believe in God, the Father almighty,

               Maker of heaven and earth

     And in Jesus Christ, his only begotten Son, our Lord,

               who was conceived by the Holy Spirit

                        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 is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty;

               from there he shall come to judge the living and the dead.

     I believe in the Holy Spirit,

     I believe a holy catholic* church,

               the communion of saints,

               the forgiveness of sins,

               the resurrection of the body,

               and the life everlasting Amen.

                                    ( * that is, the true Christian church of all times and all places)
