What are the two creeds of the Catholic Church?
There are actually three creeds: the popular Nicene Creed and the Apostles' Creed as well as the Athanasian Creed.
How many creeds are in the Lutheran Church?
three, The Apostles Creed, The Nicene Creed, and The Athanasian Creed.
Which came first the Apostles Creed or the Nicene Creed?
Some attribute the Apostles Creed to the twelve apostles themselves, although scholars for the most part believe it was constituted in either the latter first or second century. In any account, it is older than the Nicene Creed.
When is the Nicene creed used in mass?
I just found out the answer to this. The Nicene creed is used in mass (Eucharist) whereas the Apostles' creed is used at baptism, usually in an interrogative form. Read more about it here:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apostles'_Creed
What is the basic statement containing what catholics believe?
That would be either the Apostles' Creed or the Nicene Creed.
What other creeds do we have besides the Nicene Creed?
There exist also the Apostles' Creed and the Athanasian Creed, but the Eastern Orthodox Church only uses the Nicene Creed during its services. In the Catholic Church the Nicene Creed is primarily used during Mass. However, the Apostles' Creed is sometimes substituted, especially for a children's Mass. The Apostles' Creed is used most frequently in daily prayers, such as the rosary. The Athanasian Creed is extremely long and almost never used except as an historical reference.
What creed do you use during Lent?
The same Creed that you use year round. Thus it would be the Nicene Creed at Mass, and the Apostles Creed when you are praying the rosary.
What has the author A E Burn written?
A. E. Burn has written: 'An introduction to the creeds and to the Te Deum' -- subject(s): Creeds, Nicene Creed, Comparative studies, Apostles' Creed, Athanasian Creed, Te Deum laudamus (Music) 'The Apostles' Creed' -- subject(s): Apostles' Creed
Are there any creeds or documents the Catholic Church uses to summarize or outline their beliefs?
Yes, there's the Nicene Creed , the Apostles Creed and the Athanasian Creed.
What prayer explains Faith?
You may be thinking of the Creed, like the Nicene Creed or the Apostles' Creed, although they don't really explain the faith as expound it.
Where did the apostles creed prayer originate?
It is traditionally ascribed to the Twelve Apostles, who wrote it to refute Gnosticism. It was origianlly called the Symbol of the Apostles. Some historians think it was written later, possibly devloping it from the Old Roman Symbol, which was somewhat shorter.
What part of the mass is the Apostles creed prayed?
Although the Apostles' Creed can be used in a Catholic Mass, generally speaking most parishes use the Nicene Creed. Whichever Creed is used it comes towards the end of the Liturgy of the Word, after the homily.
