Profession of Catholic Faith of the Council of Trent
Promulgated solemnly by Pope Pius IV and the Council of Trent ... In the Bull of Pius IV, "Iniunctum nobis," 13 November 1565

• I, (Name), with a firm faith believe and profess each and everything which is contained in the Creed which the Holy Roman Church makes use of.

• That is: I believe in one God, The Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible. And in

• One Lord, Jesus Christ, the Only-begotten Son of God. Born of the Father before all ages. God of God, Light of Light, true God of true God. Begotten, not made, of one substance with the Father. By Whom all things were made.

• Who for us men and for our salvation came down from heaven. And became incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the Virgin Mary: and was made man.

• He was also crucified for us, suffered under Pontius Pilate, and was buried. And

• On the third day He rose again according to the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and

• Sits at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and His kingdom will have no end.

• And in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of life, Who proceeds from the Father and the Son. Who together with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, and Who spoke through the prophets.

• And One Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church.

• I confess one baptism for the remission of sins and I expect the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.

• I most steadfastly admit and embrace Apostolic and ecclesiastic traditions, and all other observances and constitutions of the Church.

• I also admit the Holy Scripture according to that sense which our Holy Mother the Church has held, and does hold, to whom it belongs to judge of the true sense and interpretations of the Scriptures. Neither will I ever take and interpret them otherwise than according to the unanimous consent of the Fathers.

• I also profess that there are truly and properly Seven Sacraments of the New Law, instituted by Jesus Christ our Lord, and necessary for the salvation of mankind, though not all for every one; that is:

• Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Penance, Extreme Unction, Orders, and Matrimony; and that they confer grace; and that of these, Baptism, Confirmation, and Orders cannot be reiterated without sacrilege.

• I also receive and admit the received and approved ceremonies of the Catholic Church in the solemn administration of the aforesaid sacraments.

• I embrace and receive all and every one of the things which have been defined and declared in the Holy Council of Trent concerning Original Sin and Justification.

• I profess, likewise, that in the Mass there is offered to God a true, proper, and propitiatory sacrifice for the living and the dead; and that in the most holy Sacrament of the Eucharist there is truly, really, and substantially, the Body and Blood, together with the Soul and Divinity, of our Lord Jesus Christ; and that there is made a conversion of the whole substance of the bread into the Body, and of the whole substance of the wine into the Blood, which conversion the Catholic Church calls Transubstantiation.

Note: Mass is not available in our time because of the anti-Christ vatican-2 apostasy that has taken over our buildings. The buildings with Catholic signs out front are not Catholic Churches, they are meeting halls for the vatican-2 jew-heretic cult which was founded in 1965 at the Vatican, stay out of them because it is non-Catholic "worship".

• I also confess that under either kind alone Christ is received whole and entire, and a true sacrament.

• I constantly hold that there is a Purgatory, and that the souls therein detained are helped by the suffrages of the faithful.

• Likewise, that the saints, reigning together with Christ, are to be honored and invoked, and that they offer prayers to God for us, and that their relics are to be venerated.

• I most firmly assert that the images of Christ, of the Mother of God, ever Virgin, and also of other Saints, ought to be had and retained, and that due honor and veneration is to be given them.

• I also affirm that the power of indulgences was left by Christ in the Church, and that the use of them is most wholesome to Christian people.

Note: Only Catholics are Christians, heretics are not Christians.

• I acknowledge the Holy Catholic Apostolic and Roman Church as the mother and mistress of all churches; and

Note: The term "all churches" refers to the Catholic Church in France, the Catholic Church in Germany, the Catholic Church in England, etc. - the term "all churches" is not referring to the heretic meeting halls of the "lutherans", "methodists", "baptists", "vatican-2-ists", etc. these groups are not in "churches" they are in sinful heretic meeting halls, working against God, and sending themselves into Hell. The word “Roman” is in this point of the Profession, ignore it since the Vatican is not Catholic at this time.

• I promise true obedience to the Bishop of Rome, successor to St. Peter, Prince of the Apostles, and Vicar of Jesus Christ.

Note: This point about the Pope applies when the Church has a Pope in place. The anti-Christ vatican-2 heretic cult which has taken over our formerly Catholic properties does not have the Office of the Papacy, only the Catholic Church has the Papacy. Please see notes following the Pope Boniface VIII citation in Section 1 of this site.

• I likewise undoubtedly receive and profess all other things delivered, defined, and declared by the sacred Canons, and general Councils, and particularly by the holy Council of Trent.

• I condemn, reject, and anathematize all things contrary thereto, and all heresies which the Church has condemned, rejected, and anathematized.

• This true Catholic faith, outside of which no one can be saved, which I now freely profess and to which I truly adhere, inviolate and with firm constancy until the last breath of life, I do so profess and swear to maintain with the help of God.

• And I shall strive, as far as possible, that this same faith shall be held, taught, and professed by all those over whom I have charge.

• I (Name), do so pledge, promise, and swear, so help me God and these Holy Gospels.    (End of Profession of Faith)

Note 1: The Catholic Faith (the truth from Heaven) is the Catholic De Fide Dogma listed in Section 3 and the Sources of Dogma promulgated by the Church throughout the centuries. The Bible (the Douay-Rheims is the authentic one in English) is a writing of the Ordinary Magisterium of the Catholic Church, it is not the final authority on Faith and Morals, the Dogma is. The New Testament Canon was compiled at the Council of Carthage in 397 A.D. by the Catholic Church. These Catholic writings were subsequently stolen from us and, of course, corrupted by the heretic cults.

Note 2: The religion of the Old Testament Israelites was the Catholic faith unfulfilled it wasn’t "judaism". The Catholic Church unfulfilled wrote the Old Testament (it wasn’t written by jews) and the Catholic Church fulfilled wrote the New Testament. The jew/judaism fable started about 200 B.C. when many Israelites left God's covenant and fell into "talmudic judaism" which is based on the pagan Babylonian talmud which was carried out of the Babylonian captivity among the Israelites in 538 B.C. -- see Section 39.1 of this site. Section 39.1 also describes how the words "jew" and "jews" illicitly got into the Old Testament English instead of the correct "Judean" and "Judeans".

Note 3: Please see:
- Section 2.3 > Prophesies of Jesus Christ in the Old Testament (written by the Catholic Church unfulfilled)
- Section 4 > Prophesies of the Blessed Virgin in the Old Testament (written by the Catholic Church unfulfilled)
- Section 7.2.1 > Prophesies of the future Water Baptism for the remission of Original Sin in the Old Testament
- Section 31 > Old Testament writings (of the Catholic Church unfulfilled) that God is more than one Person in the single Divinity
- Section 39.2 > Old Testament writings (of the Catholic Church unfulfilled) that the covenant of the Catholic God with Abraham was one of faith not genealogy
