commentary on Apostles Creed

¿Qué es el cristianismo? Para responder a esta pregunta, nada mejor que centrarse en uno de sus textos fundamentales, el credo, en el que la comunidad cristiana ha sintetizado su fe y a través del cual la proclama.

Ratzinger does not disappoint in this well thought and deep dive into Christianity. Far from the introductions typical to draw a neophyte to the Faith, this book is directed to the serious follower to absorb (in very short bursts for me) the significant theme of belief by a pedestrian walk through the ancient (and modern) Apostles Creed. It will be a book I will reread multiple times and recommend to all those who really want to delve deeply, not only in what they believe but why. ( )

Una explicación de las claves del cristianismo. Excelente profundización de nuestra fe ( )

A comprehensive look at Christianity and the heart of the faith makes this truly an Introduction to Christianity. Then Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger writes clearly and with conviction an expounded biblical explanation on human belief in God as a Trinity and its development throughout history. Not only is the book good for theological studies but also for meditation and those who would seek personal enlightenment. In here, the Cardinal presents the basic tenets of the Creeds in a purely Theo-centric perspective. The preface chapters introduced the Profession of Faith as integral and it's essential meaning to the faithful. Introduction to Christianity is a must read. ( )
