The Second Helvetic Confession is a historic document written in 1562 by Swiss theologian Heinrich Bullinger. It outlines the core beliefs of Reformed Christianity, emphasizing the authority of Scripture, salvation through faith in Jesus Christ, and the importance of church discipline. It was created to unify Protestant churches in Switzerland and beyond during a time of religious upheaval. The confession is respected for its theological clarity and remains influential among Reformed Christian communities today, serving as a statement of faith that guides doctrine and practice within many churches.
