From your comments, it sounds like you are talking about the Apostle’s Creed, rather than the Westminster Confession of Faith:
“I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
the Maker 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.
The third day He arose again from the dead.
He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty, from whence He shall come to judge the quick 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.”
The ‘catholic’ (not ‘Catholic’) refers to all Christians, whatever their denomination. The WCF clarifies this by referring to it as ‘the catholic or universal church’ (See Chapter 25 when we get there.)
As to the ‘decended into hell’, we didn’t say that when I was growing up, and I find that I generally need to pause to get a fresh breath of air when we get to that phrase now. That’s an area where I need additional teaching.
As for the Evangelical Presbyterians, I disagree with them on a couple of points (ordination of women and tolerance for speaking in tongues, neither of which is universally practiced in the denomination), but they are generally a good bunch of folks.
You are correct, I was refering to the Apostle’s Creed
