The Nicene Creed is a statement of faith that was originally formulated at the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD. It is a profession of Christian belief and is used in many churches around the world. The Nicene Creed is composed of three parts: the first part affirms belief in one God, the Father Almighty; the second part affirms belief in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord; and the third part affirms belief in the Holy Spirit. The Nicene Creed is an important part of Christian worship and is often recited during services.
