The Athanasian Creed (Quicunque vult) – "condensed Augustinianism"

The Athanasian Creed, named after its first Latin words Quicunque vult ("Whoever wishes to be saved"), was not written by Athanasius: Lane assigns it to about 500 and southern Gaul, and the first indisputable witness to it, according to Pelikan, comes from Caesarius of Arles. Its trinitarian section sums up Western teaching on the basis of Augustine: "to worship one God in Trinity and Trinity in unity, neither confounding the persons nor dividing the substance". The Father, the Son and the Spirit are not three eternals, not three uncreated, not three almighties, but one; the Son is begotten of the Father, the Spirit proceeds from the Father and the Son. Pelikan and Lane call the creed "condensed" or "codified" Augustinianism.
