Why do Anglicans still say in their creed that they believe in the catholic church?
When they say in the Apostles creed "I believe in the holy Catholic church" they don't mean the Roman Catholic church, which is odd in that the Roman (Latin rite) Catholic church is the TRUE church. If they were to say the Nicene creed which goes.....I believein one holy Catholic and apostolic church....they would have a problem in that they are not apostolic, that is not ordained directly in line from the apostles which catholic priests are. Realising this the Anglicans have changed the definition of Apostolic to mean following the gospel message(s) as originally preached by the apostles. In short Anglicans (low church, liberal church and hight church) are really protestants pretending to be Catholics.
What does the line 'We believe in the Holy Spirit' in the Apostle's Creed mean?
The Apostle's Creed is a collection of Christian doctrine. It contains the beliefs of Christian churches in the most basic form. Many would say that in order to be considered a true Christian Church that said church must hold the beliefs contained within the creed. The line "We believe in the Holy Spirit" means just that. The church saying the creed upholds the belief that the Holy Spirit is the third member of the Trinity and is something to be believed in just as Jesus is something to believe in.
