I have been in several discussion of late with people who do not believe Christ received his humanity from Mary . .
The Nicene Creed was brought up and here is the relevant portion
this agrees with the Latin version:
he “was incarnate by the Holy Spirit and the virgin Mary and was made man”
The Latin is:
“Et incarnatus est de Spiritu Sancto ex Maria Virgine, et homo factus est”
The Creed in my missal says this instead:
“he came down from heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit he was born of the virgin Mary, and became man.”
Why are we using a Creed that is very different in its actual language from the ancient Creed and what the Latin says?
Peace in Him!
