Nicene Creed

We believe in one God

the Father Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible,

And in one Lord Jesus Christ,

the only begotten Son of God,
begotten of His Father before all ages.
God of God,
light of light,
very God of very God,
begotten not made,
of the same essence as the Father,
through Him all things were made.

For us and for our salvation,
He came down from heaven,
and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit 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 is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again with glory to judge both the living and the dead.
His Kingdom will never end.

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and giver of life,

who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son together is worshiped and glorified,
who spoke by the prophets.
We believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.
We affirm one baptism for the forgiveness of sins,
and we look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.
