The Apostles Creed
I had a good trip to Tulsa. Those of you who attend the "Soul-Winning" Workshop each year know that Tulsa is a great place with a lot of wonderful people. And yes, it is good to be home!
I was introduced to the "Apostles Creed" last spring. Legend had the Apostles writing this soon after the ascension, but we know that not to be true. The first written record we have of it is AD 215. Evidently, it was used as a summary of Christian doctrine for the baptismal candidates in the churches of Rome. All believers have traditions that they want to preserve, and preferences about lots of things having to do with their Christianity. But let me confront you like I was confronted last Spring.......what would you walk the plank for? What would you go to the wall for? What would you not, for the sake of ANYTHING, be willing to give up?
See if this comes close, and tell me what you think. Don't let the term "catholic" throw you.......I understand that to mean God's universal church. I don't believe it is referring to the Catholic Religion or Denomination.
Modern English Version
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, God's 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 to the dead.
On the third day he rose again;
he ascended into heaven,
he is seated at the right hand of the Father,
and he will come again to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. AMEN.
