Of the Son of God

1] Also they teach that the Word, that is, the Son of God, did assume the human nature in 2]

the womb of the blessed Virgin Mary, so that there are two natures, the divine and the

human, inseparably enjoined in one Person, one Christ, true God and true man, who was

born of the Virgin Mary, truly suffered, was crucified, dead, and 3] buried, that He might

reconcile the Father unto us, and be a sacrifice, not only for original guilt, but also for all

actual sins of men.

4] He also descended into hell, and truly rose again the third day; afterward He ascended into

heaven that He might sit on the right hand of the Father, and forever reign and have

dominion over all creatures, and sanctify 5] them that believe in Him, by sending the Holy

Ghost into their hearts, to rule, comfort, and quicken them, and to defend them against the

devil and the power of sin.

6] The same Christ shall openly come again to judge the quick and the dead, etc., according

to the Apostles' Creed.
