A creed is a statement of what a group of people believes and teaches. There are three statements of faith that are used throughout the Christian world’Äìthe Apostles' Creed, the Nicene Creed, and the Athanasian Creed. The teachings in these creeds are taken from the Bible. These statements of faith distinguish Christians from all false teachers.

Simon Peter answered, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God."
