Presbyterian Creeds and Confessions

The confessions of the Presbyterian Church are the historic and modern statements of Christian faith that form the first part of the Constitution of the Presbyterian Church. "In these confessional statements the church declares to its members and to the world who and what it is, what it believes, what it resolves to do." -  The Book of Order 2.0100
