Easter!

For some reason, the creeds come to mind today, probably because of the phrase directly in the middle of them.

Apostles Creed

I believe in God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth.

And in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried. He descended into hell. On the third day He rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty. From thence He will come to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Christian Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.

Nicene Creed

I
 believe
 in
 one 
God, 
the 
Father 
Almighty, 
maker
 of
 heaven 
and
 earth 
and
 of
 all
 things
 visible
 and 
invisible.




And
 in
 one 
Lord
 Jesus
 Christ, 
the
 only‐begotten 
Son 
of
 God,
 begotten
 of
 His
 Father
 before
 all
 worlds,
 God 
of
 God,
 Light
 of 
Light,
 very
 God 
of
 very
 God,
 begotten,
 not
 made,
 being
 of
 one
 substance
 with
 the
 Father, 
by
 whom 
all
 things
 were 
made;
 who
 for
 us
 men 
and 
for
 our
 salvation
 came
 down
 from
 heaven
 and 
was 
incarnate 
by
 the 
Holy
 Spirit
 of
 the
 virgin 
Mary
and 
was 
made 
man; 
and 
was 
crucified
 also 
for 
us 
under
 Pontius
 Pilate.
 He
 suffered and
 was
 buried.
 And
 the 
third
 day
 He 
rose
 again
 according
 to
 the
 Scriptures 
and
 ascended
 into
 heaven
 and
 sits 
at 
the
 right 
hand 
of
 the
 Father.
 And
 He 
will 
come
 again
 with
 glory
 to
 judge
 both
 the 
living 
and
 the 
dead,
 whose 
kingdom
 will 
have 
no 
end.




And 
I 
believe 
in
 the
 Holy
 Spirit,
 the
 Lord
 and
 giver
 of 
life,
 who
 proceeds 
from 
the
 Father
 and
 the 
Son, 
who 
with 
the 
Father 
and 
the 
Son 
together
 is
 worshiped 
and
 glorified,
 who 
spoke 
by
 the
 prophets.
 And 
I
 believe 
in
 one holy
 Christian 
and 
apostolic
 Church 
 I
 acknowledge
 one
 Baptism 
for 
the 
remission
 of 
sins,
 and
 I 
look
 for 
the 
resurrection
 of
 the
 dead and 
the 
life 
of
 the world 
to 
come.
 Amen.
