The Nicene Creed – A Biblical Analysis

We believe in one true God, (Heb 11:6, 1 Corinthians 8: 4-6, Romans 3: 29-31, Eph 4: 6) the Father Almighty (1Cor. 8: 6; Rev. 1: 8) Maker of heaven and earth (Ex. 20:11, Gen. Ch. 1 &2) and of all things visible and invisible (Jer. 32:17. Col. 1:16)

And in the one Lord (Acts 10:36) Jesus (Matt. 1:21) Christ (John 4:25-26),
the only-begotten Son of God (John 1:14), begotten of the Father before all worlds(1 John 4:9), Light of Light, very God of very God (John 1:4, 1 John 1:5-7, John 12:35-37, John 5:18), begotten, not made (John 8:58), being of the same substance with the Father (John10:30); and by whom all things were made (John 1:3);

+ Who for us men and for our salvation (Mat 1:21) came down from heaven (John 3:31),
+ and was incarnate of the Holy Virgin Mary, Mother of God (Luke 2:6),
by the Holy Ghost (Luke 1:35), and became man (John 1:14);
+ and was crucified for us (Mark 15:25) in the days of Pontius Pilate (Matt 27:22-26); and suffered, and died, and was buried (Matt 27: 50-60);

And the third day rose again (Matt 28:6) according to His will (1.Cor 15:4),
and ascended into heaven (Luke 24:51), and sat on the right side of the Father (Mark 16:19); and shall come again in His great glory (Matt 25:31), to judge both the quick and the dead (2 Tim 4:1); whose kingdom shall have no end (Luke 1:33);

And in the One Living Holy Spirit (John 14: 26), the Life-giving Lord of all (2 cor 3: 17-18, Is. 6: 8, Acts 28: 25 Rom 8: 2, 2.Cor 3: 6), who proceeds from the Father (John 15: 26): and who with the Father and the Son is worshiped and glorified (Rev. 4: 8), who spoke by the Prophets and Apostles (2 Peter 1:21); And in the One (John 10: 16), Holy (Eph 5: 26-27, 2 Peter 2: 5&9), Catholic (Rom 10:18 “Catholic” means universal or comprehensive, as well as “relating to the ancient undivided Christian Church”) and Apostolic (Eph 2:20) Church;

And we acknowledge one Baptism (Eph. 4:5) for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38), and look for the resurrection of the dead (Rom 6:5), and the new life in the world to come (Mat. 25:34., Rev. 21:1-7). Amen.
