About the Apostles' CreedThe word, "creed" simply means "Belief". A creed is a statement of common belief based upon scripture truth. Creeds have been created at various times throughout the history of the Church to define fundamental beliefs and exclude erroneous teaching. The Apostles Creed is the oldest of the important creeds of the early Church. It was created to confront the false teachings of the Gnostics who believed that everything physical was corrupt and that only spiritual things are pure. Institute for Christian Leadership has available a Guide to Early Church Documents that clearly describes content and origins of early Church creeds. There are some Bible Creeds which are creeds based on various scriptures, and a listing of other important creeds from Reasoning with the Scripture Ministries Find also, and biblical proofs for the Apostolic Creed, prepared by Steve Rindahl
