The Augsburg Confession: LITERALLY TRANSLATED FROM THE ORIGINAL LATIN WITH THE MOST IMPORTANT ADDITIONS OF THE GERMAN TEXT INCORPORATED: TOGETHER WITH THE GENERAL CREEDS; and AN INTRODUCTION, AND NOTES

The Augsburg Confession is the foundational confession for the Lutheran faith. Written in 1530, this document continues to define what Lutherans believe in opposition to other branches of the church. This volume includes Charles Porterfield Krauth’s translation of the Augsburg Confession, along with an extensive historical and theological introduction. At the end of the volume, Krauth includes his comments on the Confession, and corrects some common misunderstandings of its teaching. This edition has been sightly modified so that it is easier for the modern reader.
