The Apostles Creed is an ancient creed 1that is, statement of faith5 of the ,hurch and historically has been #idely used and cherished by believers. )lthough it #as not #ritten by the )postles, #e believe it to be a concise summary of their teachings. 't may have originated as a baptismal formula around the 8nd century, and developed into its present form by the 7th or <th century. 2 0esus* descent into hell consisted in +is priestly act of offering +imself up as a sacrifice for sins, undergoing the "udicial #rath of !od on the ,ross, and remaining under the po#er of death for three days before being vindicated in +is resurrection. 3 The term catholic means universal and hence does not refer to any one particular church, but to ,hrist*s universal ,hurch, #herever she may be found gathering in ,hrist*s name.
