Book Description
Excerpt from The Heart of the Creeds, Historical Religion in the Light, of Modern Thought In my ministry I have continually felt the need of some book which, in a clear and concise way, should put before people the rational theology of the early Church and of the best thinkers of our own time, and in so doing set forth the undisputed religious principles which make the basis of the Creeds and Institutions of historical Christianity. This book, which I have dedicated to her from whom I learned my first lessons of reverence for divine truth, and to the master of thought, whose friendship I was privileged to share in later life, tries to make clear the universal meaning in the rites and symbols of the historic Faith, since, before the Christian conscience can be delivered from narrow doubts and Christian society from strifes and divisions, men must learn to discriminate fairly between what is necessary and what is accidental in religion.
