Statement of Faith

25th June 2005

I BELIEVE in God almighty
And in Christ Jesus, his only Son, our Lord
Who was born of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary
Who was crucified under Pontius Pilate and was buried
And the third day rose from the dead
Who ascended into heaven
And sitteth on the right hand of the Father
Whence he cometh to judge the living and the dead.
And in the Holy Spirit
The holy church
The remission of sins
The resurrection of the flesh
The life everlasting.

a slightly more detailed statement…

I believe in one God,
the Father Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
and of all things visible and invisible;

And in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the only begotten Son of God,
begotten of his Father before all worlds,
God of God, Light of Light,
very God of very God,
begotten, not made,
being of one substance with the Father;
by whom all things were made;
who for us men and for our salvation
came down from heaven,
and was incarnate by the Holy Ghost
of the Virgin Mary,
and was made man;
and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate;
he suffered and was buried;
and the third day he rose again
according to the Scriptures,
and ascended into heaven,
and sitteth on the right hand of the Father;
and he shall come again, with glory,
to judge both the quick and the dead;
whose kingdom shall have no end.

And I believe in the Holy Ghost the Lord, and Giver of Life,
who proceedeth from the Father [and the Son];
who with the Father and the Son together
is worshipped and glorified;
who spake by the Prophets.
And I believe one holy Catholic and Apostolic Church;
I acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins;
and I look for the resurrection of the dead,
and the life of the world to come. AMEN.

I figured it was prudent that I post a statement of faith since I advocate using them in many of my posts. Many of you will recognize the statements above as I do not feel compelled to “reinvent the wheel”.

    I like this creed, Brian! Its really exciting to me to think about the awesome heritage we have in the Lord. Not to say the continuity shared between the church in heaven and the church present tied together in union with Christ.

  5. BA Says:

    Has to do with Jesus descending to the lower parts of the earth. :)

    I have a post that discusses the subject in more detail but I haven’t posted it yet.

    Yes, I know that part, we had to memorize this creed when I was in Bible College, yrs ago now. We memorized the part about Jesus going to hell.
