Though the Nicene Creed is regularly recited in weekly church
services, few understand its historical origins and connections to
Scripture and key Christian doctrines. This volume bridges the gap,
providing an accessible introduction that explains how the Creed is
anchored in the Bible and how it came to be written and confessed
in the early history of the church. The authors show how the Creed
reflects the purpose of God in salvation, especially in relation to
Christians' divine adoption as sons and daughters, leading to
glorification. Each chapter includes sidebars highlighting how the
Creed has been received in the church's liturgy. Professors,
students, clergy, and religious educators will benefit from this
illuminating and edifying guide to the Nicene Creed.
