Creeds 8: Last Things

In our final installment of this series on the Creeds, we look at the last two clauses of the Creed which, together with the clause about Christ's return in glory to judge the living and the dead earlier, constitute the basic Christian teaching concerning the end of the age. We explore how the "end times" or "last things" (from the Greek ta eschata, hence "eschatology") have already begun with the resurrection of Jesus Christ, and how the Christian hope is to share in his resurrection glory, and the finality of his unadulterated reign on earth.
Eschatology: the study of the end times
Apostles' Creed
The Resurrection of the body: And the Life everlasting. Amen.
Nicene Creed
I look for the Resurrection of the dead: And the Life of the world to come. Amen.

Creeds 7: Redemption Applied

In lesson 3 we learned about the objective work of Christ once and for all completed on the cross. In this lesson, we learn how that objective work is subjectively applied to us, individual believers. In particular, we will look at the role of faith (and where the Protestant Reformers got the idea of by grace alone through faith alone), and the instrumentality of the two Dominical Sacraments, Baptism and the Lord's Supper.
Soteriology: the study of salvation
Apostles' Creed
The forgiveness of sins (Latin: remissionem peccatorum)
Nicene Creed
I acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins (Latin: remissionem peccatorum​)

Creeds 6: People of God

In this lesson we explore the meaning of the so-called "four marks of the church" contained in the Nicene Creed: one, holy, catholic, and apostolic. Before we defined those words, however, we first explored the meaning of the most important word in this section of the creed: "church." What is it? Where does it come from? And how does the church relate to the Old Covenant people of God?
Ecclesiology: the study of the church
Apostles' Creed
The holy Catholic Church; The Communion of Saints.
Nicene Creed
And I believe [in] One [Holy] Catholic and Apostolic Church.
