- Creeds of Christendom, with a History and Critical notes. Volume I. The History of Creeds. (Editor)
Description: In 1876, this three volume collection of
cross-denominational creeds was deemed by its publisher a "symbolical
library" well worth visiting. In Volume I, Schaff introduces the creeds
by providing general information regarding their origin, value,
authority, and classification. First, Schaff presents the Ecumenical
Creeds, which contain the most basic doctrines of the Trinity and the
Incarnation. These fundamental creeds are the Apostle's Creed, the
Nicene Creed, the Creed of Chalcedon, and the Athanasian Creed. Next,
Schaff considers the Greek and Roman Creeds, which differ significantly
from Protestantism and from each other. Schaff then explores the
Evangelical Protestant Creeds, which emerged around the time of the
Reformation and are divided into two camps, Reformed and Lutheran.
Schaff concludes by giving some attention to the Creeds of Modern
Evangelical Denominations. Through Creeds of Christendom, Schaff
aims
to
bring understanding to those who adhere to different creeds. Schaff
wisely reminds us that despite varying Christian denominations, Christ
always remains at the center of the creeds.

- Creeds of Christendom, with a History and Critical notes. Volume II. The History of Creeds.
Description: In 1876, this three volume collection of
cross-denominational creeds and confessions was deemed by
its publisher a "symbolical library" well worth visiting.
In Volume II of Creeds of Christendom, Schaff reproduces
the Scripture Confessions as well as the Ante-Nicene and
Nicene Rules of Faith and Baptismal Creeds. He also
presents the Orthodox Confession of the Eastern Church
alongside the longer catechism of the Orthodox Eastern
Church. Finally, Schaff concludes with the Old Catholic
Union Creeds, which include several encyclical letters
from the 19th and 20th century papacies. Schaff spends
several sections comparing different forms of the
Apostle's Creed, which range from the Old Roman African
form to the Old Italian form. Schaff even provides an
extensive table displaying the gradual formation of the
Creed from 200AD to 750AD. This book is an excellent
resource for comparative analysis, as Schaff provides the
documents in their original languages alongside their
English translations. Through Creeds of Christendom,
Schaff aims to bring understanding to those who adhere to
different creeds. He wisely reminds us that despite
varying Christian denominations, Christ always remains at

Description: Philip Schaff's History of the Christian
Church excels at providing an impressive and instructive
historical treatment of the Christian church. This eight
volume work begins with the early Church and ends at 1605
with the Swiss Reformation. Schaff's treatment is
comprehensive and in depth, discussing all the major (and
minor!) figures, time periods, and movements of the
Church. He includes many footnotes, maps, and charts; he
even provides copies of original texts in his treatment.
One feature of the History of the Christian Church that
readers immediately notice is just how beautifully written it
is--especially in comparison to other texts of a similar nature. Simply
put, Schaff's prose is lively and engaging. As one reader puts it, these
volumes are "history written with heart and soul." Although at points
the scholarship is slightly outdated, overall History of the
Christian
Church is great for historical referencing. Countless people have
found
