The Apostles’ Creed
The Ancient Baptismal Confession of the Christian Faith
God the Father
I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.
Jesus Christ
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended to hell. The third day he rose again from the dead. He ascended to heaven and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty. From there he will come to judge the living and the dead.
The Holy Spirit
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the 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.
