AFFIRMING OUR FAITH (51)
From Revelation 1

We believe in one God and Father
whom we serve as a kingdom and priests;
to whom be glory and power for ever.


We believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
who was raised from death,
who loves us,
and has freed us from our sins by his blood.


We believe in one Holy Spirit,
who declares the word of God to the Churches.


We believe in God almighty,
the Lord, the first and the last;
Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
who is, who was and who is to come. Amen.




AFFIRMING OUR FAITH (52) - Advent
From Revelation 1


We believe in Jesus Christ;
he is the faithful witness,
he is the firstborn from the dead,
he is the ruler of the powers of the world.


He loves us
and has loosed us from our sins by his blood.
and has made us a kingdom of priests
to serve our God.


He is coming on the clouds,
so that every eye will see him -
even those who pierced him.
All the peoples on earth will mourn because of him.
So shall it be. Amen.




AFFIRMING OUR FAITH (53) - Easter
From Revelation 2


We believe in Jesus Christ
before whom we fall down and worship
but need not be afraid:
he is the first and the last,
the living one;
he has authority over death
and the world of the dead,
for he was dead, but now is alive
for ever and ever. Amen.
