The ABC's of  Orthodoxy
NICENE CREED

This Creed is known from its first Greek word as (pistevo), or in Latin (credo), in English (creed), meaning (I believe) 

The Nicene Creed is a written statement of the Christian faith, which was formulated as the shortest and the most accurate summary of the Divine Truths. 

It is called Nicene because it was in the city of Nicaea in AsiaMinor that the Councils and leaders of the entire Orthodox Catholic Christian Churches, including both parts of the East and West, agreed to the concept of the Nicene Creed. The Nicene Creed is considered the constitution of the Eastern Orthodox church and is called Ecumenical since it was issued by the undivided entire Church, and is--even today--adopted in the main by all Christian churches!
