What you see is what you get. This is....you guessed it...a book of confessions. (Confessions including creeds, confessions, catechisms, declarations, and statements of faith.) Included in this one are the following:

The Nicene Creed
The Apostles' Creed
The Scots Confession
The Heidelberg Catechism
The Second Helvetic Confession
The Westminster Confession of Faith
The Shorter Catechism (Westminster)
The Larger Catechism (Westminster)
The Theological Declaration of Barmen
The Confession of 1967

There are references/cross references which could be used by those with the intent to study the documents, to verify that the statements are accurately reflecting Scripture. (I didn't look up references.)

Some of these are fairly common and well known. A few show more of these are lesser known. Some are short. Some are long. All are introduced.

My absolute favorites are The Scots Confession and the Heidelberg Catechism.
