Philip Schaff's monumental work 'The Creeds of Christendom' is a comprehensive exploration of the historical development and theological significance of the creeds and confessions of the Christian faith. Divided into three volumes, Schaff meticulously examines the early creeds of the Church, the various confessions of the Protestant Reformation, and the modern statements of faith from different Christian traditions. Written in a clear and scholarly style, this work provides readers with a deep understanding of the foundational beliefs that have shaped Christian theology throughout history. Schaff's insightful analysis and detailed explanations make this book an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christian doctrine. Philip Schaff, a renowned church historian and theologian, brings his expertise to bear in 'The Creeds of Christendom'. With a deep knowledge of the historical and theological context in which these creeds were formulated, Schaff presents a nuanced and thorough examination of their significance. His passion for the subject matter is evident in the meticulous research and thoughtful insights that he brings to this monumental work. I highly recommend 'The Creeds of Christendom' to scholars, students, and anyone seeking a comprehensive understanding of the foundational beliefs of the Christian faith.

Philip Schaff's The Creeds of Christendom is a massive set, originally published in three volumes and here reproduced across five volumes, cataloging and explaining the many different creeds from the myriad Christian denominations. The differences in belief between Calvinists, Lutherans, and Presbyterians, for example, can often be subtle, so a thorough examination of the particulars as well as an explanation for how those different beliefs result in a different worldview is necessary. Volume One: Part II covers: . the Catechism of Geneva AD 1546 and 1541 . the Reformed Confessions of France and Netherlands . the Reformed Confessions of Germany . the Reformed Confessions of Bohemia, Poland, and Hungary . the Anglican Articles of Religion . the Presbyterian Confessions of Scotland . the Westminster Standards . the Creeds of Modern Evangelical Denominations. (See Volume One: Part I for the Table of Contents for this volume.) Swiss theologian PHILIP SCHAFF (1819-1893) was educated in Germany and eventually came to the United States to teach at the German Reformed Theological Seminary in Pennsylvania. He wrote a number of books and hymnals for children, including History of the Christian Church and The Creeds of the Evangelical Protestant Churches.
