Profession of Faith
I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all
things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only
Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God,
Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made,
consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us
men and for our salvation he came down from heaven, and by the Holy
Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he
was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and
rose again on the third day in accordance with 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, the giver of life, who proceeds
from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored
and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy,
catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one baptism for the forgiveness of
sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the
world to come. Amen.
With firm faith, I also believe everything contained in the word of God,
whether written or handed down in Tradition, which the Church, either by
a solemn judgment or by the ordinary and universal Magisterium, sets
forth to be believed as divinely revealed.
I also firmly accept and hold each and everything definitively proposed by
the Church regarding teaching on faith and morals.
