== Nicene Creed: Eastern Orthodox ==

+

The [[Eastern Orthodox Church]] maintains that the Holy Spirit is the Third Person of the Holy Trinity,Who proceeds from the Father only (John 15:26). The Eastern Orthodox Church firmly denies the opinion that the Holy Spirit was created by the Son. The Church states that the "filioque" phrase is an error and is not found in the Scripture.

+

The Eastern Orthodox Church believes that the "filioque" introduces a teaching of a double procession of the Holy Spirit and refers to two origins of the Spirit's existence, thus denying the unity of the Godhead.

I believe in one God,

Line 77: Line 84:

I confess one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.

I look for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the age to come. Amen.
