Basic Christian Doctrine

Drawing on years of experience as a pastor and seminary professor, John Leith provides a brief but comprehensive statment of Christian faith for contemporary Christians. He considers the theologians of the ancient church and affirms the faith of the ancient creeds: the Apostles’ Creed, the Nicene Creed, the Chalcedonian Definition, and the Athanasian Creed. He asserts that we now live in a period of religious revival in which Christian faith is persuasive – it is a gospel that heals the bruised consciences and wounded spirits of human beings.
