By connecting the deep theological conflicts of the early Church with the conflicts and questions facing Christians today, Johnson shows that faith is a dynamic process, not based on a static set of rules. Written in a clear, graceful style and appropriate for Christians of all denominations, The Creed is destined to become a classic of modern writings on spirituality.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Luke Timothy Johnson</note> <subject> <topic>Catholic Church -- Doctrines</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Christian doctrine</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Creeds -- History and criticism</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">238.142</classification> <classification authority="ddc">J66-L95</classification> <identifier type="isbn">9780385502474</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/14948/73.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/14948/73.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071425.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
