Today is the Last! 12 Drummers drumming. What a great sound that would be! Well today's gift symbolize the 12 points of Doctrine in the Apostles Creed. Since this song was created for the Catholic church it does have some points that are related to the Catholic Faith. But what ever church you go to this is the 12 point Apostle Creed
1. I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.
2. I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord.
3. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary.
4. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried.
5. He descended into hell. On the third day he rose again.
6. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty.
7. He will come again to judge the living and the dead.
8. I believe in the Holy Spirit,
9. the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints,
10. the forgiveness of sins,
11. the resurrection of the body,
12. and the life everlasting.
