‘For centuries Christians have formulated and stated their beliefs in creeds, confessions and statements of faith. The FIEC Doctrinal Basis, which dates back to 1922, stands in the tradition of evangelical statements of faith that encapsulate the core convictions which define and unite evangelicals. Dr Cross has performed a valuable service by expounding its brief paragraphs, explaining their meaning and implications, and showing how they faithfully reflect the teaching of Scripture. He has helpfully ended each section with a verse from
an appropriate hymn, which reminds us that theology is not just an
intellectual exercise but ought to touch our emotions and lead to reverent worship of God. It is accessible to new believers and would also be suitable as the basis for an introductory course on doctrine for use by small groups.’
John Stevens, FIEC National Director

‘It is important for Christians to know what they believe and to understand the Bible’s teaching. In this book, Timothy Cross explains the primary doctrines of the Christian faith very clearly and in a way which is
accessible to all who are followers of Jesus. Anyone wanting to know more about what the Bible teaches will also find this book helpful. Reading the book will give you a glimpse of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ and move you to worship him.’
