THE APOSTLES' CREED.

I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth;
and 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, 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;
the holy catholic church;
the communion of saints;
the forgiveness of sins;
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting.  Amen.

THE NICENE CREED.

We believe in one God,
the Father, the Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all that is, seen and unseen.
  
We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,
the only Son of God,
eternally begotten of the Father,
God from God, Light from Light
begotten, not made,
of one Being with the Father.
Through Him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
He came down from heaven:
by the power of the Holy Spirit He was
incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and
became man.
For our sake He was crucified under
Pontius Pilate;
He suffered death and was buried.
On the third day He rose again 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.
  
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord,
the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son.
With the Father and the Son He is worshipped
and glorified.
He has spoken through the Prophets.
  
We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic
church.
We acknowledge one baptism for the
forgiveness of sins.
We look for the resurrection of the dead,
and the life of the world to come.   Amen.

 

AND THE ATHANASIAN CREED (In summary form).

To be saved you must worship one God who reveals
Himself in three Persons,  Father, Son  and Holy
Spirit.
 
These three, who are One, are
    -equal in glory
    -co-eternal in majesty
    -not created
    -eternal
    -Almighty
    -God
    -Lord
    -equal
    -in unity.
  
And Jesus Christ, God's Son,
    -is one, both God and man
    -of the Father's substance,  begotten before
      creation
    -of  His  mother's  substance,  born  in the
      world
    -perfect God and perfect man
    -equal to the Father as God
    -inferior to the Father as man 
    -suffered to save us, went to hell and  rose
      the third day.
    -Ascended into heaven where He  sits  at the
      right hand of the Father from where  He'll
      return to judge the  living and  the dead.
      Then  everyone will  rise bodily  and give
      account  of  their  works.  True believers
      whose  life  showed  it, going  to eternal
      life and others to eternal fire.
  
And the  Holy Spirit  is of  the Father  and the
 Son,  not  created  or begotten  but proceeding
 from them.

         -of infinite
             -power
             -wisdom
