Our Apostolic Confession

"Our apostolic confession" is equivalent to chapter 7 of seven chapters in the book "A Child of God," designed to give the new believer in Christ an understanding of what salvation is and what our inheritance and position in Christ includes. This last booklet in the series covers how the Bible warns against false doctrines, that the message of the Bible is a revelation, and that the battle always centers in on who Jesus Christ is. It gives a short glimpse into the canonization of the Bible and then leads the reader through each of the twelve parts of "The Apostolic Creed" - an amazingly poignant and short confession of our faith that has stood the test of almost 2000 years of historic times. Jorn Overby is born of Norwegian (Lutheran) missionaries to Bangladesh and spent his childhood on the Indian subcontinent.
