Apostles Creed

[Cristiano]

Here’s one more argument in favor of the TLM… Anywhere you are in the world, the 1962 Roman Missal calls for the Niceno-Constantinopolitan Creed on all Sundays and major feast days.

Seems an easy way to clear up all this confusion would be to return to having one, uniform Ordinary of the Mass for use throughout all of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church, as we did for 1400 years.

This is a bogus statement because the One Holy Catholic Apostolic Church had different Liturgies for centuries. Ignorance of history of the Church is not justification for going back to the TLM.

I agree.

I agree.

A week ago I went to a Byzantine Divine Liturgy, it started with the veneration of the Cross. What really moved me is the fact that three priests were con-celebrating: A Byzantine priest, a Maronite priest and a Latin priest. I was in a state of awe and I told my son:"Look this is what we mean as One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church. Probably it was the first and last time in my life that I have been granted such a privilege. I am just glad that I received such a gift.

The untranslated version is always best. No retranslations, no ICEL, no arguments (except for the Filioque).

I really don’t know but most people here pray the Rosary very often so everyone knows the Apostles Creed by heart.
Before I came here to live the other countries I lived in used the Nicene Creed but I could never remember it by heart. I always had to read it at Mass whereas because of the Rosary I find the Apostles Creed always in my mind.

I agree though, I can recite the Apostle’s Creed in my sleep. But the Nicene Creed, I still get some lines wrong if I recite from memory. Perhaps its a pastoral decision knowing that more people can easily recite the Apostle’s Creed.

Πιστεύω είς ενα Θεόν, Πατέρα, παντοκράτορα, ποιητήν ουρανού καί γής, ορατών τε πάντων καί αοράτων.

Καί είς ενα Κύριον, Ίησούν Χριστόν, τόν Υιόν του Θεού τόν μονογενή, τόν εκ του Πατρός γεννηθέντα πρό πάντων τών αιώνων. Φώς εκ φωτός, Θεόν αληθινόν εκ Θεού αληθινού γεννηθέντα, ού ποιηθέντα, ὁμοούσιον τώ Πατρί, δι’ ού τά πάντα εγένετο. Τόν δι’ ημάς τούς ανθρώπους καί διά τήν ημετέραν σωτηρίαν κατελθόντα εκ τών ουρανών καί σαρκωθέντα εκ Πνεύματος ‘Αγίου καί Μαρίας τής Παρθένου καί ενανθρωπήσαντα. Σταυρωθέντα τε υπέρ ημών επί Ποντίου Πιλάτου καί παθόντα καί ταφέντα.

Καί αναστάντα τή τρίτη ημέρα κατά τάς Γραφάς.

Καί ανελθόντα είς τούς ουρανούς καί καθεζόμενον εκ δεξιών τού Πατρός.

Καί πάλιν ερχόμενον μετά δόξης κρίναι ζώντας καί νεκρούς, ού τής βασιλείας ουκ εσται τέλος.

Καί είς τό Πνεύμα τό ¨Αγιον, τό Κύριον, τό ζωοποιόν, τό εκ τού Πατρός εκπορευόμενον, τό σύν Πατρί καί Υιώ συμπροσκυνούμενον καί συνδοξαζόμενον, τό λαλήσαν διά τών Προφητών.

Είς μίαν, αγίαν, καθολικήν καί αποστολικήν Έκκλησίαν. ‘Ομολογώ εν βάπτισμα είς άφεσιν αμαρτιών. Προσδοκώ ανάστασιν νεκρών. Καί ζωήν τού μέλλοντος αιώνος.

Άμήν.
