The Use and importance of the Apostles' Creed in relation to the Churchi) Godii) Jesusiii) The ChurchThe Apostles' Creed is a statement of beliefs; it contains the main Christian teachings and is often recited in church services, the first two words of the Apostles' Creed, "We believe", it means that people accept what they say as the truth, that they believe and s commit to the following, it is a Profession of Faith (they declare what they believe.), although it can also be used in private, silent prayer. The Creed teaches about God, Jesus and the Church. The Apostles' Creed teaches about God: “We believe in God. The Almighty Father, creator of heaven and earth. » This passage reflects the Christian belief in a personal God, not just a higher power, what is called monotheism (belief in one God: the belief that there is only one God.) “The Father Almighty” reflects another. The Christian belief that God is father is reflected throughout the New Testament; Jesus refers to God as Father. Christians see God as Father because he has authority (in many societies the Father is the head of the family and is an authoritative figure.) and also God loves his creation and there is trust between God and his creation, God cares for and helps his people in a personal way. . Christians believe that God is Almighty and all-powerful, this means that he can do everything and that he has complete power, that he has compassion for his creation and such power that he can take care of the world. The second line of the creed "creator of heaven and earth" shows the Christian belief that God created the universe, this reflects God...... middle of paper ...... of history and of deep symbolic meaning, very little has changed In the Church, since the creeds were written, the same Bible is used, the prayers are in the same direction, just like the creeds, back when it was written, the creed was obviously seen as important, and this is also true today.
