Confession of Faith

A Confession of Faith is a formal statement outlining the core beliefs and doctrines of a religious group or denomination. It serves as a framework to articulate what followers believe about God, scripture, salvation, ethics, and other theological issues. Often used in Protestant Christianity, confessions help unify members around shared convictions and guide teaching and practice within the community. These documents can vary significantly, reflecting different interpretations and traditions, and often aim to clarify beliefs, resolve disputes, and provide a foundation for faith and practice.
