10. I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven
and earth, and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was
conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered
under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; He
descended into hell on the third day he rose again from the dead;
He ascended into 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. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic
Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the
resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.
