Philadelphia Confession of Faith

The Philadelphia Confession of Faith, adopted in 1742, is a statement of faith used by Reformed and Baptist churches. It outlines core Christian beliefs, including the nature of God, the authority of Scripture, and salvation through Jesus Christ. It emphasizes the importance of grace, the role of the Holy Spirit, and the church's practices, such as baptism and communion. This confession serves as a guiding document for faith and practice, reflecting a commitment to theological clarity and communal agreement among believers, particularly within the contexts of the Reformed tradition and Baptist teachings.
