Epitome of the Formula of Concord

Epitome of the Formula of Concord

by Jakob ANDREAE (1528 - 1590)

Formula of Concord (1577) is an authoritative Lutheran statement of faith (called a confession, creed, or "symbol") that, in its two parts (Epitome and Solid Declaration), makes up the final section of the Lutheran Corpus Doctrinae or Body of Doctrine, known as the Book of Concord. The Epitome is a brief and concise presentation of the Formula's twelve articles. (Introduction by Wikipedia)
