The Long Creed
I believe in one God the Almighty Father, Creator of heaven and earth, of everything visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, born of the Father before all ages: God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not created, of the same nature as the Father, by whom everything was done; that for us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven, and by the work and grace of the Holy Spirit was incarnated from the Virgin Mary and became man; and for our cause he was crucified in the time of Pontius Pilate; he suffered and was buried, and rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures, and ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father; and he will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, Lord and giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with him the Father and the Son receives the same adoration and glory, and who spoke through the prophets. I believe in the Church, which is one, holy, catholic and apostolic. I confess that there is only one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. I await the resurrection of the dead and the life of the future world. Amen.
