Comment on What are the Essentials of Christianity? by Gareth Leake

In reply to Jack Allison.

Thanks for the suggestion, Jack! We will keep in mind an overview of the Apostles’ Creed in the future. For what it’s worth, Christianity Today and Wikipedia have articles on the origin of the Apostles’ Creed, which you may find helpful:

http://www.christianitytoday.com/biblestudies/articles/churchhomeleadership/nicene-apostles-creeds.html
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apostles%27_Creed#Origin).

In short, it’s a historical creed but its exact origins are unclear. It doesn’t have quite the same historical (and, arguably, theological) significance as the Nicene and Nicene-Constantinopolitan Creeds. Now, by no means does this indicate that the Apostles Creed is unimportant! My own unfamiliarity with this Creed and it’s continued usage in the church sparks interest for me to do some further research…. so keep an eye out for a possible article on this in the future!

This article was awesome and has a great explanation of the core beliefs of Christianity. I grew up going to a Christian classical school for 1st-8th grades and we would regularly read the Apostle’s Creed (and occasionally the Nicene Creed as well). I was wondering if in a future article you could address some of the confusing parts of that creed that I’m not really sure what to think of. The lines “he descended into hell”, “the communion of saints”, and “the resurrection of the body” are all parts of the Apostle’s Creed that are rarely discussed in church or other modern Christian settings. I’m not particularly sure what my beliefs about them are or what they should be. Thanks so much for the awesome website, article, and theology!

In reply to Tiffani Duncan. Glad you enjoyed the article and found it informative! I also like your idea to use it as a conversation starter in this season.

This was cool to read! I really enjoyed learning about the “X” language symbol and it helps me feel better about writing xmas which I often do to save time. Now I can feel like I am not leaving Christ out of Christmas 🙂 I will continue to try to write out Christmas because in our day and age people don’t know about what X represents. But it will be a fun conversation starter as a piece of trivia.
