The Catholic Apostles Creed PrayerYou will find that the Catholic Apostles Creed prayer differs from other versions, and though it is very similar, it is even different from the Nicene Creed.
The Creed of the Apostles I believe in God, the Father the almighty, the creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended into hell,On the third day he arose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, he sits at the right hand of the God the Father the Almighty, from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen. The chief truths of the Catholic Faith are found in the Creed of the Apostles, which really was compiled by the Apostles themselves, before they left for other countries to propagate the faith, containing the twelve articles of faith we are obliged to believe. When we say the Creed, we actively make a profession of faith stating all we believe. My Catholic Faith |
It contains all the basic truths of the Faith one is required to believe in order to profess to being a Catholic, thus the name Creed which is derived from the Latin word credo, which means 'I believe'.
