I believe in one God,
the Father Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God,
Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
consubstantial with the Father;
through Him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
He came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit
was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.
For our sake He was crucified under Pontius Pilate,
He suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead,
and His kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Lord, the Giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism
for the forgiveness of sins,
and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come.
Amen. 🙏🏼
Funny Jay is coming to this conclusion now. My bishop on Sunday told me very kindly that I should defend my faith if I need to, but to steer away from apologetics online if I can. (He also hinted at how others are far better at it than I, which is true for sure.)
Thousands of you have written to me about your recovery since I opened up about mine.
Some of you are years sober. Some of you just made it through a hard day and wanted someone to know.
And I will tell you what I tell everyone: you are not alone.
You never are.
France’s “Agency for Secure Documents” got hacked — names, addresses, emails and phone numbers of 19 million people leaked.
Future leaks will become even uglier if the French government gets what it wants: access to encrypted chats and Digital IDs of social media users.
JUST IN: In a statement signed by Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, The Assembly of Catholic Ordinaries of the Holy Land confirms attacks by the IDF on Christians are not isolated incidents but many.
He expressed its "profound indignation and unreserved condemnation of the desecration of a representation of Jesus Crucified by an Israeli soldier in a Lebanese village."
"This act constitutes a grave affront to the Christian faith and adds to other reported incidents of desecration of Christian symbols by IDF soldiers in southern Lebanon."
