The Creed: Path to Unity
What do Christians actually believe?
In an age of theological confusion and ecclesiastical division, the ancient creeds offer both anchor and compass. But do these historic confessions faithfully reflect Scripture? Where did the church preserve apostolic truth, and where did it add human traditions?
THE CREED: PATH TO UNITY is a comprehensive textbook examining Christian confession from the New Testament to the present day. Theologian Arthur Tiger guides readers through the development of the great ecumenical creeds, evaluating each from a conservative biblical perspective.

More than a historical survey, this textbook proposes a Biblical Creed designed to unite all who hold the apostolic faith-grounded in Scripture alone, centered on Christ alone, received by faith alone, to the glory of God alone.
"Contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints." -Jude 3
