PROFESSION OF FAITH
(NICENE CREED)

I BELIEVE IN ONE GOD, THE

FATHER ALMIGHTY, MAKER OF
HEAVEN AND EARTH,
 OF ALL THINGS VISIBLE AND
INVISIBLE. I BELIEVE IN ONE
LORD JESUS CHRIST, THE ONLY
BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD,
BORN OF THE FATHER BEFORE
ALL AGES. GOD FROM GOD,
LIGHT FROM LIGHT, TRUE GOD
FROM TRUE GOD, BEGOTTEN,
NOT MADE,
CONSUBSTANTIAL WITH THE
FATHER; THROUGH HIM ALL
THINGS WERE MADE.
 FOR US MEN AND FOR OUR
SALVATION HE CAME DOWN
FROM HEAVEN,
AND BY THE HOLY SPIRIT WAS
INCARNATE OF THE VIRGIN
MARY, AND BECAME MAN.
 FOR OUR SAKE HE WAS
CRUCIFIED UNDER PONTIUS
PILATE, HE SUFFERED DEATH
AND WAS BURIED,
 AND ROSE AGAIN ON THE
THIRD DAY IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE SCRIPTURES.
HE ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN
AND IS SEATED AT THE RIGHT
HAND OF THE FATHER.
HE WILL COME AGAIN IN GLORY
TO JUDGE THE LIVING AND THE
DEAD AND HIS KINGDOM WILL
HAVE NO END.
I BELIEVE IN THE HOLY SPIRIT,
THE LORD, THE GIVER OF LIFE,
WHO PROCEEDS FROM THE
FATHER AND THE SON,
 WHO WITH THE FATHER AND
THE SON IS ADORED AND
GLORIFIED, WHO HAS SPOKEN
THROUGH THE PROPHETS.
 I BELIEVE IN ONE, HOLY,
CATHOLIC, AND APOSTOLIC
CHURCH. I CONFESS ONE
BAPTISM FOR THE
FORGIVENESS OF SINS,
 AND I LOOK FORWARD TO THE
RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD
AND THE LIFE OF THE WORLD TO
COME. AMEN.
