This volume is a biblical theological critique of the Apostles' Creed and a developemnt of the role of the Holy Spirit in the church, the world, and the personal experience of Christian faith. It addresses the Creed as a historic document, an artifact of early Christian theological development, and a long-standing guide for the form and content of the faith tradition. This book is an appreciation of the Apostles' Creed in terms of its persistent pastoral effect in the church. It is also a criticism of aspects of thcreed that are unbiblical and crafted for political or extraneous theological reasons by the bishops of the ancienct ecumenical councils.
