Dieper Dinge Deeper Things

Nicene Creed:

The Nicene Creed is the most widely accepted Christian statement of faith and was adopted by the Church in the year 325.
It was developed to help identify people who are Christians:

We believe in one God,
the Father, the Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all that is, seen and unseen.

We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,
the only Son of God,
eternally begotten of the Father,
God from God, light from light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
of one Being with the Father;
through him all things were made.
For us and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
was incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary
and became truly human.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;
he suffered death and was buried.
On the third day he rose again
in accordance with the Scriptures;
he ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead,
and his kingdom will have no end.

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father [and the Son],
who with the Father and the Son is worshiped and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church.
We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.
We look for the resurrection of the dead,
and the life of the world to come. Amen.

尼西亞信經

1. 我信獨一上帝，全能的父，創造天地和有形無形萬物的主。
2. 我信獨一主耶穌基督，上帝的獨生子，在萬世以前為父所生，
出于神而為神，出于光而為光，出于真神而為真神，受生
而非被造，與父一體，萬物都是借著瓷造的；
3. 為要拯救我們世人，從天降臨，因著聖靈，並從童女馬利
亞成肉身，而為人；
4. 在本丟彼拉多手下，為我們釘于十字架上，受難，埋葬；
5. 照聖經第三天復活；
6. 並升天，坐在父的右邊；
7. 將來必有榮耀再降臨，審判活人死人；瓷的國度永無窮盡；
8. 我信聖靈，賜生命的主，從父和子出來，與父子同受敬拜，
同受尊榮，瓷曾借眾先知說話。
9. 我信獨一神聖大公使徒的教會；
10. 我認使罪得赦的獨一洗禮；
11. 我望死人復活；
12. 並來世生命。
