The faith we confess is the product of an arduous effort to bring the knowledge of the Reformation to our Latin American context. The systematic work of weak men of a great God, such as John Calvin, John Knox, Guido de Brès, Zacharias Ursinus, Caspar Olevianus, James Ussher, Wolfgang Capito, Heinrich Bullinger, and many more no less important, is brought to our language in a complete and clear manner. In this work, you will find the ideas and declarations of faith that ancient Reformers understood from the Word of God. These Confessions of Faith will show you what Reformed catholicity consists of. And at the same time, they will show which doctrines could definitely never be part of Reformed theology. Whoever reads this book will inevitably see firsthand what great theologians have interpreted about the benevolent will of God. The importance of owning this book is greatly appreciated simply by perceiving its thickness. This book is an important, obligatory, and necessary reference when interpreting the Bible. The faith we confess is not meant to replace the believer's prayer and conscientious study of the Holy Scriptures; however, it has good walls and fences of protection, so that the interpreter of Scripture does not wander in it, nor claim to bring today a new interpretation never before seen by the Church. The Reformed Heritage is invaluable. As it is said in our midst: We stand on the shoulders of giants. If with this book we are able to understand how our brothers throughout history appreciated and loved our Lord Jesus Christ, the task of this compendium is completely fulfilled.
