Apostles' Creed: Difference between revisions

The current '''Apostles’ Creed''' is an enlargement of the ''Old Roman Creed''. One of the first occurrences of the '''Apostles' Creed''', nearly identical in form to how it is known today is in the Latin tract ''De singulis libris canonicis scarapsus'' by the monk Priminius. The way the ''Old Roman Creed'' became the '''Apostles' Creed''' is not exhaustively known, but creeds identical in meaning began appearing in South Gaul in the fifth century. In the next few centuries following, the '''Apostles’ Creed''' gained acceptance in France and Germany. It was recognized by Charlemagne the Great throughout the Frankish Empire in the early ninth century, eventually being incorporated into Roman Catholic liturgy.<ref name="LBD"></ref>
