Minister: Your sins are forgiven through Christ.
Congregation: Thanks be to God!
Minister: Christian, what do you believe?
Congregation: I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, his only begotten Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the Holy Ghost, and born of the virgin, Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into Hades. On the third day He rose again from the dead, ascended into Heaven, and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence He will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
Minister: We have heard with our ears, O God,
Congregation: Our fathers have told us,
Minister: What work You did in their days, in the times of old.
Congregation: If we have forgotten the name of our God
Minister: Or stretched out our hands to a strange god;
Congregation: Shall not God search this out?
Minister: For He knows the secrets of the heart.
Congregation: Yes, for Your sake we are killed all the day long;
Minister: We are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
Congregation: Awake, why do You sleep, O Lord?
Minister: Arise, cast us not off forever.
