Francis young describes how and why the two most familiar Christian creeds came into being. She describes how creeds originated in instruction before baptism and have their roots in the New Testament itself; shows how the rise of Gnosticism and a tendency towards fragmentation in the church made a clear statement of faith necessary; outlines the various controversies which led to particular words and phrases being included in the Creeds as we now have them; and describes the construction of the great Christian doctrines of the Trinity and the Incarnation. Her account will be welcomed both by those who have difficulty with the historic creeds and those who want a clearer statement of traditional Christian faith and will help to make the creeds come alive again in the very different world of today.
