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, borne of his father before all worlds, light of light, very God of very God, begotten not made, being of the same 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 Ghost and the virgin Mary, and was made man. He was also crucified for us under Pontius Pilate. He suffered and was buried: and he rose the third day, according to the Scriptures. And he ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God the father: and he shall come again with glory to judge the quick and the dead, whose kingdom shall have no end. And (I believe) in the holy Ghost the Lord and giver of life, who proceeding from the father, is to be worshipped and glorified together with the father and the son, who spake by the prophets, in one Catholic and Apostolic church. I confess one baptism for the remission of sins. I look for the resurrection of the dead: and the life of the world to come.
