  4. Apostles’ Creed I believe in God, the Father almighty,      creator of heaven and earth.

  5. Apostles’ Creed I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord,      who was conceived by the Holy Spirit      and born of the virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate,      was crucified, died, and was buried;      he descended to hell.

  6. Apostles’ Creed The third day He rose again from the dead.      He ascended to heaven      and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty. From there He will come to judge the living and the dead.

  7. Apostles’ Creed I believe in the Holy Spirit,      the holy catholic church,      the communion of saints,      the forgiveness of sins,      the resurrection of the body,      and the life everlasting. Amen.

They will be fair ones with lovely intense eyes like guarded pearls; A reward for the good deeds of their past life.” (56:17-24)

  18. A Destiny: The Hope of GloryThe Path: Is it Worth it? Hebrews 11:1, 6 1 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. 6And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.
