Apostle's Creed

What is an absolute? An absolute is a 100% truth; undebatable. In the Apostle's Creed, there are many things that are believed to be absolute truths, and the bible backs these up. To give you some background, here's the creed. I've highlighted the lines that I believe to be absolute truths.

The Apostles’ Creed

I believe in God, the Father almighty,

creator of heaven and earth. (1)

I believe in Jesus Christ, God's only Son, our Lord, (2)

who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, (3)

born of the Virgin Mary, (4)

suffered under Pontius Pilate, (5)

was crucified, died, and was buried; (6)

he descended into hell. (7)

On the third day he rose again; (8)

he ascended into heaven, (9)

he is seated at the right hand of the Father, (10)

and he will come to judge the living and the dead. (11)

I believe in the Holy Spirit, (12)

the holy catholic Church, (13)

the communion of saints, (14)

the forgiveness of sins, (15)

the resurrection of the body, (16)

and the life everlasting. Amen. (17)

The use of the phrase 'holy catholic Church' in this creed doesn't mean you have to be catholic. It is supposed to mean one denomination, one body in Christ. So what does the Bible say about unity of the church?

John 17:21
21 that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me.

God wants His followers to be unified, and to use that unity to reach out to the world. He wants all denominations to follow Him, set aside their arguments, and take back the world for God's glory, not for their denomination. The writer here is saying that all believers should be as though they were all family, that they are all family in Christ. But through that familial tie, they would show the entire world that they belong to Christ, and that they were sent by Him to recapture the world for Him. The Apostle's Creed is their unifying call, across all denominations.
