We Believe : Recovering the Essentials of the Apostles' Creed

---

Outline: With succinct and probing analysis, this book reintroduces the Apostles' Creed to a new generation, proving that its message is much more than abstract concepts to be argued by theologians. In this book, the author addresses the great questions that the creed answers:
- How can we know God?
- Who needs the Church?
- Can we still believe in the resurrection?
- Is there really only one way to God?
- Is God always right?
He shows that the answers are timeless - as applicable for today's Christian as for those in the early centuries of the Church.
In this carefully researched volume, theologian Michael Horton explores the deep treasures of the Creed, and reveals to us the incomparable wealth and stability it offers to Christians. The author reminds us that the early Church faced similar temptations to those we confront today, but tenaciously refused to alter its beliefs. He encourages us to anchor ourselves to the ancient, timeless beliefs of our spiritual fathers: I believe in God, the Father Almighty, maker of Heaven and Earth; and in Jesus Christ His only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried. He descended into hell. The third day He rose again from the dead. He ascended into Heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty. From thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
