SynopsisPhilip Schaff, author of the standard 8 volume History Of The Christian Church, assembles all of the major Christian creedal statements from the early church to today. There is nothing in print as complete as Creeds Of Christendom.
I have nothing against the publisher or the books or their bindings great product; the only thing vile to me is the content that was pushed on mankind by a man who thought he was fighting for God and state and country, Constantine: When he brought church and state together to try and bring the world together with one world order; which consists of church and state under one umbrella, was at that time a novel idea, to try and end all wars once and for all. The only thing wrong with this is that true Apostolic teaching of Jesus Christ our God with us, was lost in the process, with a triune philosophy of men and philosophers of that time; just as in Judges in the 2nd chapter, they raised up a generation that knew not God! The same thing happened there as well, and the true Oneness of God was lost until the 1800's great awakening. I suggest Philip Schaff's eight volume set on the Christians Churches History before reading the History of the Christian Creeds, first before reading this set, so a person can get a since of the timeline that is going on here as well.

The 3 volumes of Schaff 's Creeds of Christendom is one of the most profound assemblies of Theological and Christological teachings in the world. These 3 volumes can be summarized in a statement of 7 words in Greek (12 in English) which come from Theophylact who lived until c.1122 A.D. These words summarize the mystery of the Incarnation of Jesus Christ. .
