“Who with the Father and the Son, he is worshiped and glorified” Why is this in the creed? It solves a problem: there is no reference in the Bible to the adoration of the Holy Spirit as God. But, if the Holy Spirit is God (and He is), then He must be. anglicancompass.com/we-believe-w...

We continue our We Believe series on the Nicene Creed with "And His Kingdom Will Have No End." Joe Colletti (aka "Young Anglican") ruminates on what the idea of God's kingdom means for us: anglicancompass.com/we-believe-a...

After an assassination, we really ought to pray. As #Anglicans, we have an especially powerful resource in the psalms and in the prayers of the Book of Common Prayer, including a set of collects on the death of King Charles I from the 1662 Book of Common Prayer: anglicancompass.com/psalms-and-p...

Why do Anglicans celebrate Holy Cross Day? This major feast reminds us to boast in nothing “except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ” (Galatians 6:14). Read all about why we celebrate on September 14th in our Rookie Anglican Guide: anglicancompass.com/holy-cross-d...

The importance of Nicaea in church history can be taken for granted. Not only did we gain the Nicene Creed, but a set of canons ("rules") to be abided by churches. As Stephen Noll explains, breaking with doctrine has consequences for church unity: anglicancompass.com/the-canons-o...

"When the Lord #Jesus returns to earth in glory, as discussed in our last reflection on the #NiceneCreed, it will not be so that we can look at him. He is coming with a purpose: to judge the living and the dead." anglicancompass.com/we-believe-t...

Up until this point in the Creed, we have confessed what #Christ has done in the past. When we confess “He will come again,” our attention pivots from the past to the future; we lift our eyes to the horizon of time, and we see the finish line. anglicancompass.com/we-believe-h...

While the First Council of Nicaea (325 AD) focused on the nature of #Jesus as fully God and fully man, the First Council of Constantinople (381 AD) was called to deal with the nature of the #HolySpirit: anglicancompass.com/we-believe-i...

"As it turns out, #Jesus ascends not to abandon his followers, but to empower and equip them. He ascends to grant his followers access to the Father in prayer, ownership in his #Church, and the power of the Holy Spirit." anglicancompass.com/we-believe-h...

What the Creed declares is that the suffering, death, and resurrection of Jesus were not accidents of history or theological improvisations. They were the outworking of God’s long-promised plan, revealed through the Scriptures and embraced by Jesus himself. anglicancompass.com/we-believe-i...

In the [Nicene] Creed, we claim historical fact: the person of #Jesus of Nazareth, who was truly killed, thoroughly dead, and really buried, rose again into newness of life on the third day after his last supper in Jerusalem, the heart of the world. anglicancompass.com/we-believe-o...

The line "he was crucified under Pontius Pilate" grounds the creed in historicity. Our faith is based on a real event, an execution, which happened under the authority of a real man in real historical records. anglicancompass.com/we-believe-h...

"He is seated at the right hand of the Father." This is a cosmic announcement: #Jesus reigns. Not later, not symbolically, not “in your heart.” The Nicene Creed insists, Scripture declares, and the Church believes: the throne is not empty. anglicancompass.com/we-believe-h...

"The early #Church gave Mary a title that still echoes through the liturgy today: Theotokos, God-bearer. Not just the mother of Jesus in a biological sense, but the one who bore in her body the One who is both fully God and fully man." anglicancompass.com/we-believe-w...

"Through him all things were made." There is nuance in this line. There exists both unity and distinction within the Godhead. It is not meant to repeat what was said about the Father, but instead to bring out the Son’s unique role in creation. anglicancompass.com/we-believe-t...

The core controversy that led to the Council of Nicaea was whether or not our Lord Jesus #Christ is God in the same way that the Father is God. For Arius, the idea that the Son is truly God was a denial of Christianity’s core commitment to monotheism. anglicancompass.com/we-believe-o...

The Creed’s insistence that the Son is “begotten, not made” safeguards one of the most vital truths of the #Christian faith: Jesus is not a product of God’s will; He is not part of creation. He is of one being with the Father—equal, eternal, and divine. anglicancompass.com/we-believe-g...

American #IndependenceDay is both a celebration of American political liberty and a universal commemoration of God’s priority over government. On this day, we remember that human laws are evaluated by the standard of God’s law, not the other way around. anglicancompass.com/independence...
