The
Apostles' Creed
I BELIEVE in
God, the Father
almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I BELIEVE in
Jesus Christ,
his only Son,
our Lord.
He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit
and born of the Virgin Mary.
He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again.
He ascended into heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again to judge the living and the dead.
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.
NOTE The word "catholic" refers
NOT to
the Roman
Catholic Church,
but to the
universal church
of the Lord
Jesus Christ.
