Nicene-Constantinopolitan Creed

I believe in one God,
the Father, the Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth,
and of all that is, seen and unseen.

I believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,
the only Son of God,
eternally begotten of the Father,

God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten not made,
of one being with the Father.

Through Him all things were made.
For us and for our salvation
He came down from heaven:
by the power of the Holy Spirit
He was born of the Virgin Mary
and became man.

For our sake He was crucified
under Pontius Pilate;
He suffered death and was buried.
On the third day he rose again
in fulfillment of the Scriptures;
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand
of the Father.
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,
the Lord and Giver of Life,
Who proceeds from the Father.
With the Father and the Son
He is worshiped and glorified.
He has spoken through the Prophets.

I believe in One, Holy, Catholic
and Apostolic Church.
I acknowledge one Baptism
for the forgiveness of sins.
I look for the resurrection
of the dead
and the life of the world to come.
Amen.
