The Creeds of Christendom by Phillip Schaff • 1998 Edition • Three Volume Set
“A symbolical library’ that contains the creeds and confessions of all Christian denominations fills a vacuum in theological and historical literature. It is surprising that it has not been supplied long ago. Sectarian exclusiveness or doctrinal indifferentism may have prevented it. Other symbolical collections are confined to particular denominations and periods. In this work, the reader will find the authentic material for the study of Comparative Theology – Symbolics, Polemics, and Irenics. In a country like our, where people of all creeds meet in daily contact, this study ought to command more attention than it has hitherto received.” (copied from Preface)
