Excerpt from An Introduction to the Creeds When the Introductions to Old and New Testament History in the series of Elementary Theological Class-Books, which have since had such a wide circulation, were originally projected, it was suggested to the Publishers that they should follow them up with similar Introductions to the Church Catechism, the Prayer-Book, the Creeds, the Articles, and the History of the Church during the first three Centuries, and so make a somewhat complete course. This has already been partially done, and the Introductions to the Church Catechism and the Prayer-Book have for some time been in extensive use. The present Volume forms an Introduction to the Creeds, and it is hoped it will supply a want, which has been often expressed by many teachers at our Theological Colleges in England and those engaged in various Missions abroad.

This is a history of the Catholic Creeds, from Apostolic times to the centuries of the Church Fathers. In the words of the author: "As professed scholars of the Eternal Word, incarnate, risen, ascended, it will not be less our duty to present evidence plainly and honestly, nor will it be less obvious if that duty is shirked. While we are collecting our facts, the more scientific method is, doubtless, to proceed from the known to the unknown. But when we come to explain them a theory is necessary, and with any theory an element of uncertainty is introduced. Why then should we not, in presenting our theory, retrace our steps, from the obscure to the obvious, from the days when the currents of Christian life and thought lay unseen beneath the surface of social life, to the days when the persecuted Church of the Catacombs, preserved through that mighty upheaval of ideas which has made our religion dominant in the world's history, found kings to be her nursing fathers and their queens her nursing mothers? I will therefore venture to begin from the beginning, passing from the evidence of the New Testament down to the final and polished forms of our Apostles' and Nicene Creeds, hoping by resolved restraint of language and imagination to commend my theory of their growth. To borrow an illustration from photography. In a clear light the exposure of a plate need only last a moment. In a dull light exposure must be prolonged, and we must be content with less definite outlines. Yet with patience we may hope to reproduce both distance and foreground. By patience we may hope to obtain in our study of " the faith" in apostolic times what above all we need, a sense of perspective, a standard of the relatively great and little thoughts which stirred in the minds of the first Christians. What was the secret of their persistency? What enabled an apostle to write: 'This is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith'?"

Like most things we take for granted, the Catholic Creeds have an amazing story--actually a lot of stories. What seems a simple prayer or statement of faith has a fascinating origin. And there is a reason it's precisely worded the way it is and each word was fought over with great passion. It had to be worded just right. This little book is an introduction to the struggles, the heresies, the truth, and the men who fought to hand it down to us. We will discuss important elements like these: Why is it called a Creed and how was it used in the early Church? What were the fights, debates, and struggles involved in hammering out the Creeds? Why do Christians have a formal statement of their beliefs when other world religions don't? Are the words and concepts of the Creeds found in Scripture and if so, where? What is the one most crucial, fought over, and non-biblical word in the Nicene Creed? What are the four important "marks" of the true Church that distinguish it from sects and denominations? What is the significance of the Creed's emphasis on the bodily resurrection? Includes fascinating facts, historical development, arguments for defending the faith, a biblical summary, and much more! Knowing the story behind the creeds brings to life our fascinating history and beliefs. This book introduces the creeds as both a prayer and a personal commitment. Here you have the summary of Catholic doctrine in a nutshell, easy to read, memorize, and practice.
