The Nicene Creed
I believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, and of all that is seen and unseen. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father. Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, one in being with the Father through Him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation He came down from heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit He was born of the Virgin Mary, and became man.
For our sake He was crucified under Pontius Pilate, He suffered and was buried;
On the the third day, He rose again in fulfillment of 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 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, with the Father and the Son is worshiped and glorified, He has spoken through the prophets. I believe In one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.
I acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.
I look for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.
Amen. If a thing ain't broke DON'T fix it ! To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater. You currently have 0 posts. |

__________________ Faith,then,is a comprehensive knowledge, so to speak, of the essentials; but knowledge is the strong and firm proof of what is accepted through faith, and which leads to infallibility and understanding and to sudden comprehension. And it seems to me that first saving change from paganism to faith, as I said before; and the second is that from faith to knowledge. This latter develops into love, and afterwards presents the one loving to Him that is loved, and the one knowing to Him that is known. And, such a one, perhaps, has already attained the condition of being like to an angel. ~ St. Clement of Alexandria |

So there you have it Michael, two canonized saints of the Orthodox Church found it suitable to use French!
C'est tres bien!
Read a few posts up, I already knew that. I was joking with Emmanuel.

Thank you all for your support - and the wonderful typical TAW derailments [ which we all do so very very well ]
I feel I should apologise in a way for even opening this thread but in my defense , and I'm sure you all realise it , life is pretty difficult for me at present . I'm kinda fragile and things which even 2 months ago would not have worried me , now can and do make me very insecure.
I'm heading off on the 20th for a short break - which I know I really do need. I'm meeting a friend over in Europe , and am heading off for 8 days peace and quiet , a chance to rest and reflect , and hopefully start the healing process.
Now would some kind passing Mod please lock this thread so it can get buried ?
Please ? Pretty please ?
