CHAPTER TWO I BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST, THE ONLY SON OF GOD
423
We believe and confess that Jesus of Nazareth, born a Jew of a daughter of
Israel at Bethlehem at the time of King Herod the Great and the emperor Caesar
Augustus, a carpenter by trade, who died crucified in Jerusalem under the
procurator Pontius Pilate during the reign of the emperor Tiberius, is the
eternal Son of God made man. He ‘came from God’,4 ‘descended from
heaven’,5 and ‘came in the flesh’.6 For ‘the Word became flesh
and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; we have beheld his glory, glory as
of the only Son from the Father. . . and from his fullness have we all
received, grace upon grace.’7
