By Alfred Garnett Mortimer

Book Overview

The Creeds is a comprehensive book written by Alfred G. Mortimer and published in 1902. The book provides an in-depth historical and doctrinal exposition of three important creeds in Christianity: the Apostles' Creed, the Nicene Creed, and the Athanasian Creed. The Apostles' Creed is the oldest and simplest of the three creeds, and it is believed to have been written by the apostles themselves. The Nicene Creed was written in the 4th century and is considered one of the most important creeds in Christianity. The Athanasian Creed, also written in the 4th century, is known for its detailed explanation of the doctrine of the Trinity.In this book, Mortimer explores the origins of these creeds, their significance in Christian theology, and their historical context. He also provides a detailed analysis of the key doctrines and beliefs outlined in each of the creeds. Overall, The Creeds is an essential resource for anyone interested in understanding the foundational beliefs of Christianity and the role that creeds have played in shaping Christian theology throughout history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
