* THE AFFIRMATION OF FAITH “The Apostles’ Creed” Josh Large

I believe in God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth; And in Jesus Christ his only Son our

Lord: who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was

crucified, dead, and buried; the third day he rose from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and sitteth

at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence he shall come to judge the quick 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. The United Methodist Hymnal ©1989 The United Methodist Publishing House
