Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Apostles Creed: Its Relation to Primitive Christianity No Christian document outside the limits of the Canon appeals to the loyalty of religious Englishmen so forcibly as the Apostles´ Creed. For more than three centuries and a half it has held its place in the Book of Common Prayer as the Creed of Baptism, of the Catechism, and of the daily offices. Even in the middle ages it was known to a relatively large number of the English laity through the instructions of the clergy and the versions circulated in Primers. The English Reformers inherited a reverent esteem for the Credo, and gave it in their new Order of 1549 a place of honour equal to that which it had held in the Breviary and the Manual. From Prime it passed into Mattins, from Compline into Evensong; in the Baptismal office it was ordered to be rehearsed by minister and sponsors as in the Sarum ordo ad faciendum catechumenum, and sponsors were required as heretofore to provide for its being taught to their Godchildren. In the new Catechism the English Creed was printed in full, and the translation which appears there was afterwards adopted in the offices.
