THE APOSTLES CREED"


help you occupy any spare space you
may have with an article concerning
what is called THE Apostles Greed.
This brief expression OF the things
that lie deep in the devout soul. Is
sometimes repeated in concert in va
rious Christian services. such as ded-
ications, funerals. etc.
Notice its sublime and reverent
spirit:
81 believe in God the Father Al
mighty. Maker OF heaven and earth:
"And in Jesus Christ His only Son,
our Lord; who was conceived OF the
Holy Ghost, Born OF the Virgin Mary
Suffered under Pontius PLATE, Was
crucified. dead and buried; He de-
cended into hell; The third day He
rose again from the dead; He ascend
ed into heaven. and stitch on the
right hand OF God the Father Al
mighty; From thence He shall come
TO Judge the quick and the dead.
81 believe in the Holy Ghost; The
Holy Catholic Church; The Commun-
ion of Saints; The Forgiveness OF
sins: The Resurrection OF the body;
and the Life everlasting. Amen
A study OF any good encyclopedia
will doubtless give you the follow
ing points concerning IL:
Il is the earliest form OF Christian
creed extant, unless precedence be
given to the baptlsmal formula at
the close OF Matthew'S Gospel out OF
which many suppose IT to have grown
There were, in the early church
different forms OF this primitive creed
and a great variety Of opinions have
been held az to It's origin. The ear
lest account is from Ruiinus OF the
fourth century. who claimed that the
APOSTLES. when about to separate to
preach the gospel TO the different
nations. agreed upon a form OF
sound words" which should express
the sum of their common teaching
and he claimed that each apostle
contributed a part OF 81. However
this may be (and we are pardoned
for our doubts. since Runnus is no
speclal historical authority) II Is not
improbable that even In the age oil
tho apostles. some such simple for
mula of belief existed The exact
form OF the present creed Is propa-
bIy not nearer the Apostles than 400
wears. but form little different from
II was I'm use much rlier. lrenaeus'
scholar OF Polycarp twho was dis
ciple of the Apostle john when he
repeats a creed not much unlike IT,
declares that "the church dispersed
throughout the whole world had re
oeiyed this faith from the apostles
and their disciples" and Tertullian
firms that a similar creed had been
prevalent as rule OF faith In the
church from the beginning Of the
gospel"
SO while It's very words may not be
strictly apostolic. It is no doubt sub
stantially so-fairly representative
OF the different elements OF Christian
faith az handed down from the apos-
ties. and therefore not without a
claim In It's substance on the ere
dence OF the Universal Christian
church.

II ought not to be necessary for
me to say that the word Catholic"

lie" are two different things and that
combinations OF words make great
changes. As the words "baptize" and
christian" Cor disciple) do not re-
fer to the Baptist Church" or Dis

older use than Roman Catholic"
We may freely use the words Meth
cd" or "Presbytery" without being
Methodists or Presbyterians.
The word Catholic" is derived
from two Greek words "Kata" and
"holos" and means general. univer-
sal, and originally this epithet was
given to the Christian church in gen
eral. II means also, as You will see
from your lexicons. liberal, mot
narrow minded. not partial, nor big
oted." And these are the thoughts we
have when we use the word. II Is
equivalent to saying 81 Uelieve In the
Holy Universal, Fraternal. Church or
people OF God" The Roman church
may or may not be very catholic.
Sometimes II has been far too much
Roman and too little catholic. Why,
the word Catholic is even used and

The expression "He decended into
hell" only means lie deccnded lnto
the grave: or rather, that He enter

dead. The words Hades In Greek and
sheol in Hebrew. apply to the grave
or estate OF the dead. and are some
times translated hell in the scrip
lures. The expression in Psalm 1910

refers TO Jesus death by way OF pro-
