The Apostles creed

This is the apostles creed and today I am highlighting what I think is the most important.
The Apostles’ Creed

I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth. (1)
I believe in Jesus Christ, God's only Son, our Lord, (2)
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, (3)
born of the Virgin Mary, (4)
suffered under Pontius Pilate, (5)
was crucified, died, and was buried; (6)
he descended into hell. (7)
On the third day he rose again; (8)
he ascended into heaven, (9)
he is seated at the right hand of the Father, (10)
and he will come to judge the living and the dead. (11)
I believe in the Holy Spirit, (12)
the holy catholic Church, (13)
the communion of saints, (14)
the forgiveness of sins, (15)
the resurrection of the body, (16)
and the life everlasting. Amen. (17)

 
Now I am going to take line 6 of the apostles creed (was crucified, died, and was buried) and prove its accurate with the bible.


John 19: 17-18

17 Carrying his own cross, he went out to the place of the Skull (which in Aramaic is called Golgotha). 18 There they crucified him, and with him two others—one on each side and Jesus in the middle.

John 19:33-34

33 But when they came to Jesus and found that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. 34 Instead, one of the soldiers pierced Jesus’ side with a spear, bringing a sudden flow of blood and water.

John 19:41-42

41 At the place where Jesus was crucified, there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had ever been laid. 42 Because it was the Jewish day of Preparation and since the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus there.
