St Thomas Church

THE NICENE CREED

We believe in one God

the Father, the Almighty

maker of heaven and earth

of all that is, seen and unseen.

We 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

was incarnate of the Holy Spirit

  and the Virgin Mary

and was made man.

For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;

he suffered death and was buried.

On the third day he rose again

  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.

We 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 worshipped

  and glorified

who has spoken through the prophets.

We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church.

We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.

We look for the resurrection of the dead

  and the life of the world to come.  Amen.
