Yay! More Bible and learning!
This time we are going to look at the gem of the early church, The Apostle's Creed. It dates all the way back to before 200 A.D. and has been a marker of the true Church ever since. It is good and right for us to learn it.
I believe in one God, the Father, Almighty, maker of heaven and earth,
And in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord
who was concieved 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.
And I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy, catholic Church,
the Communion of Saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the ressurection of the body,
and the life everlasting.
Amen
Now, the $20 Million question...
What does this mean?

I believe in God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth.
What does this mean?
I believe that God has made me and all creatures. that he has given me my body and soul, eyes, ears and all my members, my reason and all my senses and still takes care of them.
He also gives me clothing and shoes, food and drink, house and home, wife and children, land, animals, and all I have. He richly and daily provides me with all that I need to support this body and life.
He defends me against all danger and guards and protects me from all evil.
All this he does only out of Fatherly, divine goodness and mercy, without any merit or worthiness in me.
For all this it is my duty to thank and praise, serve and obey him.
This is most certainly true.

and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was
concieved by the Holy Spirit,
born of the virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontious 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.
What does this mean?
I believe that Jesus Christ true God, begotten of the Father from eternity, and true man, born of the virgin Mary, is my Lord.
That he has redeemed me, a lost and condemned person, purchased and won me from all sins, from death, and from the power of the devil. Not with gold or silver, but with his holy, precious blood and his innocent suffering and death, that I may be his own and live under him in his kingdom and serve him in everlasting righteousness, innocence, and blessedness, just as he is risen from the dead, lives and reigns to all eternity.
This is most certainly true.

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.
What does this mean?
I believe that I cannot by my own reason or strength believe in Jesus Christ, my Lord, or come to him; but the Holy Spirit has called me by the gospel, enlightened me with his gifts, sanctified and kept me in the true faith.
In the same way he calls, gathers, enlightens, and sanctifies the whole Christian church on earth, and keeps it with Jesus Christ in the one true faith.
In this Christian church he daily and richly forgives all my sins and the sins of all believers. On the last day he will raise me and all the dead and give eternal life to me and all believers in Christ.
This is most certainly true.
