These are based on “The Two Great Commandments”
Matthew 22:37-40 - King James Version
“ The Two Great Commandments”
37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind."
38 This is the first and great commandment."
39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself."
40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets."
Apostles' Creed
Apostles' Creed
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit
and born of the virgin Mary.
He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
he descended to hell.
The third day he rose again from the dead.
He ascended to heaven
and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty.
From there he will come 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.
*that is, the true Christian church of all times and all places
__________
This creed is called the Apostles' Creed not because it was produced by the
apostles themselves but because it contains a brief summary of their
teachings. It sets forth their doctrine "in sublime simplicity, in
unsurpassable brevity, in beautiful order, and with liturgical solemnity." In
its present form it is dated no later than the fourth century. More than any
other Christian creed, it may justly be called an ecumenical symbol of faith.
This translation of the Latin text was approved by the CRC Synod of 1988.
