1. I believe in God the Father, Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth:
2. And in Jesus Christ, his only begotten Son, our Lord:
3. Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary:
4. Suffered under Pontius Pilate; was crucified, dead and buried: He descended into hell:
5. The third day he rose again from the dead:
6. He ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty:
7. From thence he shall come to judge the living and the dead:
8. I believe in the Holy Spirit:
9. I believe in the Universal Church: the communion of saints:
10. The forgiveness of sins:
11. The resurrection of the body:
12. And the life everlasting.
Just a quick aside. For those of you who don't know: of the 36,000 Christian denomintions 98% of them accept the Apostle's Creed as Truth. Foundational truth. A common point of belief. Despite what some may say, 98% Christians really only differ over minor, secondary points.

I believe there will one day be a Universal Church when we are all gathered together. Until then we only have the local churches.
Also I would have to see a better explanation of "communion of saints" before I can say if I agree or not.
