He suffered and was buried, and the Third

Day he rose again according to the Scriptures, and ascended into Heaven, and sitteth on the Right-hand of the Father. And he shall come again with Glory to judge both the Quick and the Dead: Whose Kingdom shall have no End.

And I believe one Catholic and Apostolic Church, I acknowledge one Baptism for the Remission of Sins, and I look for the Resurrection of the Dead, and the Life of the World to come. Amen.
