Apostle’s Creed I believe in God the Father, Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth: And in Jesus Christ, his only begotten Son, our Lord: Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary: Suffered under Pontius Pilate; was crucified, dead and buried: He descended into hell: The third day he rose again from the dead: He ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty: From thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead: I believe in the Holy Ghost: I believe in the holy catholic church: the communion of saints: The forgiveness of sins: The resurrection of the body: And the life everlasting. Amen.

Difference between Christianity �Shahada in Islam is that you witness that no God except one and only one God; with no partner, no son, no companion; and no associate and that Muhammad is God messenger and prophet. �The Christian view is there is one God and only one God. He is personal. He manifests Himself in three persons: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. �Jesus Christ is God manifest in the flesh, born of a virgin, without sin, and the chosen Messiah who will one day set up his kingdom on earth.
