Philippians 2:6-11 We believe in Christ
Jesus… 6 who, although He existed in
the form of God, did not regard equality
with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but
emptied Himself, taking the form of a
bond-servant, and being made in the
likeness of men. 8 Being found in
appearance as a man, He humbled
Himself by becoming obedient to the
point of death, even death on a cross.
For this reason also, God highly exalted
Him, and bestowed on Him the name
which is above every name, 10 so that at
the name of Jesus every knee will bow, of
those who are in heaven and on earth
and under the earth, 11 and that every
tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is
Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Nicene Creed
We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the
only Son of God, eternally begotten of the
Father, God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God, begotten, not
made, of one Being with the Father.
Through him all things were made. For us
and for our salvation he came down from
heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit
he became incarnate from the Virgin
Mary, and was made man.
For our sake he was crucified under
Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was
buried. On the third day he rose again in
accordance with the Scriptures; he
ascended into heaven and is seated at
the right hand of the Father. He will come
again in glory to judge the living and the
dead, and his kingdom will have no end.
