Strongly Recommended

This is a great resource for any Christian, particularly those who are Reformed. Although I have been a Christian for around a decade and a half, I still learned quite a bit from this book; this book is helpful whether you know a lot or little about Christianity. It is helpful even when it says stuff that I already knew because as Christians - particularly after being a Christian for a long time - it can be easy to "get away from" the basics of your faith. It also answers interesting questions such as "if Jesus paid for our sins, why do we still have to die?" and "was it important that Jesus was crucified rather than killed in some other way?" I like how they justify their answers from Scripture. This book made me think even in cases where I didn't agree with the book.

Great resource for historic christian faith!

Great resource to have for studying the historic beliefs of the christian church. My wife and I have used it, also, for "devotions," reading a short section together before we go to bed. Books contains the Apostle's Creed, Nicene Creed, Athanasian Creed, Heidelburg Catechism, Belgic Confession, and the Canons of Dort. A brief history of each one is also given. It's helpful to have all of these resources in one book, and they are easy to read. Hard to find book, so buy it now, if available!
