Theology Evolved?

Those words began some of the most influential statements ever issued by the institutional church. Those wise men who gathered to both combat heresy and to begin the foundation for Christology. The creeds could be likened to the modern day "Statement of Faith" by churches, establishing what is believed by the church as its primary focus.

I love the Apostles' Creed, if you do not know it, I will share it with you now.

1. I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of the heavens and earth;
2. and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord;
3. who was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary;
4. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead and buried; [He descended to hell;]
5. on the third day He was raised from the dead;
6. He ascended into the heavens, and sits at the right hand of God the Father almighty;
7. from where He will come to judge the living and the dead.
8. I believe in the Holy Spirit;
9. in the holy catholic church; [the communion of the saints;]
10. the forgiveness of sins;
11. the resurrection of the flesh;
12. and eternal life.
