The Nicene Creed
We 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 the 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 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 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 we believe in the Holy Spirit, 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 spoke by the
prophets. And we believe one holy catholic and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one
baptism for the remission of sins. And we look for the resurrection of the dead, and the
life of the world to come. Amen.
