Why This Site Exists

The Nicene Creed is the most widely used creed in Christianity, adopted at the First Council of Nicaea in 325 AD and expanded in 381 AD, affirming the full divinity of Christ and the Holy Spirit.

The Heavenly Network, in partnership with The Christian Chain, has developed this network of Church Creed and Confession sites in order to make the historic faith of the Church clearly explained, faithfully presented, and freely accessible to every believer, student, and seeker who wants to understand what the whole Church has always believed together.
