Our Belief
The Creed
The Catholic Church has set forth the principal Doctrines of the Christian Faith in twelve articles of the Creed, as follows:
- I. I believe in one God the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible;
- II. And in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all Ages, God of God, Light of Light, Very God of Very God, begotten not made, of one substance with the he Father, by Whom all things were made;
- III. Who for us men and for our salvation came down from heaven, and was Incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the Virgin Mary, and was made Man;
- IV. And was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate, He suffered and was buried;
- V. And the third day He rose again, according to the Scriptures;
- VI. And ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of the Father;
- VII. And He shall come again, with glory, to judge the living and the dead; Whose kingdom shall have no end;
- VIII. And I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of Life, Who proceedeth from the Father, Who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified, Who spoke by the Prophets;
- IX. And in One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church;
- X. I acknowledge one Baptism for the remission of sins;
- XI. And I look for the Resurrection of the dead;
- XII. And the Life of the world to come. Amen.
