"It struck me that Dr. Mohler’s statement in the introduction: 'All Christians believe more than is contained in The Apostles’ Creed, but none can believe less,' is crucial to the very purpose of his book. This classic summary of Christian belief first appeared in the fourth century and has been memorized, recited and included in the worship of Christians since then...Here it is in fresh, doctrinally rich insights from our trusted friend and biblical scholar who with the bright light of his sanctified mind illuminates the riches outlined in these ancient words – read and see." —John MacArthur
Description:
The president of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary reveals how understanding and living out of the oldest summary of Christian belief leads to a confident, bold, joy-filled existence in a world of confusion and uncertainty.
The Apostles' Creed has shaped and guided Christian faith for almost two thousand years. Few documents in the history of the church have similar influence on the life of ordinary believers. Shared by Protestant, Roman Catholic, and Eastern Orthodox traditions, the Apostles' Creed is perhaps the most compelling and formidable statement of Christian doctrine the world has ever known. But do we know what it really means—and how it applies to us today?
In The Apostles' Creed, renowned theologian and pastor R. Albert Mohler Jr. works line-by-line and phrase-by-phrase through each section of the Creed, explaining in clear terms what it means and how it equips Christians to live faithfully in a post-Christian culture. From understanding the nature of the Trinity and the miracle of the Incarnation to the world-shaking truth of the resurrection and the hope of Christ's return, the theological heritage contained in this ancient statement has the power to shape us for vibrant and steadfast living today. The Apostles' Creed shows us how.
