The Creed of Nicea, which is the Confession of Faith of the Eastern Church, was largely formulated at the Council of Nicea, 325 A.D. It was based upon the ancient creed of Caesarea, one phrase being added to combat the Arian heresy, viz., _Consubstantial_ ({homoousion}) _with the Father_; and it ended with, _And in the Holy Ghost_. The concluding clauses were added at the Council of Constantinople (381 A.D.). The insertion by the Council of Toledo (589 A.D.), of _FILIOQUE_ (_and from the Son_) after _from the Father_, and its subsequent adoption in the West, was made the cause of the separation of Eastern and Western Christianity, which has continued from the eleventh century till now. The Creed of Nicea _The Confession of Faith of the Eastern Church_ We believe in One God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the only begotten, who was begotten of the Father before all the ages. Light of light, very God of very God, begotten, not made, consubstantial ({hymoousion}) with the Father, by whom all things were made. Who for men, and for our salvation, came down from the heavens, and was incarnate of the Holy Ghost, and the Virgin Mary, and was made man ({enanthropesanta}). And was also crucified for us under Pontius Pilate, and suffered, and was buried. And rose again the third day, according to the scriptures. And ascended into the heavens, and sitteth at the right hand of the Father. And shall come again with glory to judge the living and the dead, and of whose kingdom there shall be no end. And in the Holy Ghost, the Lord, the Life-Giver, who proceedeth from the Father, who with the Father and the Son is together worshipped and glorified, who spake by the prophets. In One Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church. We acknowledge one Baptism for the remission of sins.
