Synopsis
What the book reveals about Christian creeds and their power
A clear, accessible introduction to the creeds and what they mean for Christian faith. It explains how dogma shapes belief, ethics, and the life of the Church from the earliest times through the creeds that arose to meet questions and challenges. This edition guides readers through the idea that right belief underpins right living, and shows how the Epistles and Gospels have influenced the forming of doctrinal statements. It also discusses different ways scholars study creeds, from looking at their sources to tracing how they were used in worship and teaching.
- How creeds emerged as a core element of Christian identity
- What the Bible suggests about belief, doctrine, and devotion
- Two main methods scholars use to study creeds: dogmatic and historical
- How early Christian teaching shaped later summaries of faith
Ideal for readers who want a solid grounding in how creed and faith interact, and how doctrine has shaped the Church's understanding of truth.
