The Profession of Faith
Click each line below to read an explanation from the Catechism of the Catholic Church:
I BELIEVE IN GOD THE FATHER ALMIGHTY, CREATOR OF HEAVEN AND EARTH
AND IN JESUS CHRIST, HIS ONLY SON, OUR LORD
HE WAS CONCEIVED BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND BORN OF THE VIRGIN MARY
JESUS CHRIST SUFFERED UNDER PONTIUS PILATE, WAS CRUCIFIED, DIED, AND WAS BURIED
HE DESCENDED INTO HELL. ON THE THIRD DAY HE ROSE AGAIN
HE ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN AND IS SEATED AT THE RIGHT HAND OF THE FATHER
FROM THENCE HE WILL COME AGAIN TO JUDGE THE LIVING AND THE DEAD
I BELIEVE IN THE HOLY CATHOLIC CHURCH
I BELIEVE IN THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS
I BELIEVE IN THE RESURRECTION OF THE BODY
AMEN
