The Apostle’s Creed

The Apostle’s Creed is a statement of faith that summarizes the beliefs of Christianity. It is called the Apostle’s Creed because it is believed to have been developed from the teachings of the apostles, although its origins are uncertain. The creed is widely used in various Christian traditions and denominations, particularly in the Catholic Church, and is often recited during worship services and other religious ceremonies.

Here is the text of the Apostle’s Creed:

I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, 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, he is seated at the right hand of the Father, and he will come 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.

The Apostle’s Creed affirms belief in the Holy Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit), the incarnation, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, and the communion of saints. It is a concise statement of the core beliefs of Christianity, and is often used as a basis for teaching and preaching in the Church.
