Отрывок из книги
1I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. 2I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. 3For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven, and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. 4For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, 5and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. 6He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. 7He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end. 8I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. 9I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. 10I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins 11and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead 12and the life of the world to come. Amen.
Verily, verily, it is much later now than we think. The Apocalypse is already unfolding.
