SUMMARY

1. The Creed summarises what God has done for us.  From it we learn to believe in:

a) God the Father who made us and all the world;
b) God the Son, who saved (redeemed) us and all humankind;
c) God the Holy Spirit who makes us holy (sanctifies us) and all the elect people of God (members of the Church).

2. The Ten Commandments summarise what we must do for God all through our lives.
