significant comma?

i was at greenbelt again this year and wanted to share a bit from the sermon at the sunday morning communion service, the sermon was given by ann morisy. she said that when we say the creed there is a very significant comma and that perhaps we should pause when we get to that comma. the comma she meant was the one in the phrase below:

born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate

her point was that this comma encompasses the whole of jesus' life on earth from the time of his birth to the time of his death and that perhaps we should not pass over it so quickly, there may be things we should learn from how jesus lived...
