The Apostles' Creed
I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
Maker 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 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 will come to judge
the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit;
the holy [Christian]** Church;
the communion of saints;
the forgiveness of sins;
the resurrection of the body;
and the life everlasting.
Amen
