There is no other God, nor ever was, nor will be, than God the Father unbegotten, without beginning, from whom is all beginning, the Lord of the universe, as we have been taught.
And His Son Jesus Christ, Whom we declare to have always been with the Father, spiritually and ineffably begotten by the Father before the beginning of the world, before all beginning.
And by Him are made all things visible and invisible. He was made man and, having defeated death, was received into heaven by the Father.
And He has given Him all power over all names in heaven, on earth, and under the earth. And every tongue shall confess to Him that Jesus Christ is Lord and God, in Whom we believe, and Whose advent we expect soon to be, judge of the living and of the dead, Who will render to every man according to his deeds.
And He has poured forth upon us abundantly the Holy Spirit,
the gift and pledge of immortality,
Who makes those who believe and obey sons of God and joint heirs with Christ.
And Him we do confess and adore, one God in the Trinity of the Holy Name.
Amen. |
