The Philadelphia Confession of Faith
The Philadelphia Confession of Faith is a historical Protestant statement of beliefs created in 1742 that outlines core Christian doctrines. It emphasizes salvation through faith in Jesus Christ, the authority of the Bible, and the importance of living a godly life. It also affirms beliefs about the nature of God, the role of the church, and the importance of personal commitment to spiritual growth. Primarily used by Reformed and Baptist churches, it serves as a guide for proper doctrine and practice, promoting unity and understanding within those Christian communities.
