the holy Catholic church

Ya can't get THIS right; either??


 

The Catechism of the Catholic Church gives the following English translation of the Apostles' Creed.[18] In its discussion of the Creed,[19] the Catechism maintains the traditional division into twelve articles, the numbering of which is here added to the text.

1. I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.
2. I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord.
3. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary.
4. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried.
5. He descended to the dead. On the third day he rose again.
6. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
7. He will come again to judge the living and the dead.
8. I believe in the Holy Spirit,
9. the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints,
10. the forgiveness of sins,
11. the resurrection of the body,
12. and life everlasting.
Amen.

Amen, The Apostles Creed may dates back 5th-century tradition that, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit after Pentecost, each of the Twelve Apostles dictated part of it.[2] It is traditionally divided into twelve articles. However, Ambrose refers to the "Apostles' Creed" in 390 AD. "Let them give credit to the Creed of the Apostles, which the Roman Church has always kept and preserved undefiled".

Millions of Protestants recite The Apostles Creed at their mass as well.
