To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To the use of this last-mentioned (Athanasian) Creed, there are sometimes objections made. Persons ima- gine it to be uncharitable in its declarations. This Creed commences thus: "Whosoever will be saved^ before all things it is necessary that he bold the Cath- olic faith. Which faith except every one do keep whole and undefiled, without doubt he shall perish everlastingly. " And it concludes with these words : " This is the Catholic faith, which except a man be- lieve faithfully he cannot be s...aved, " These declara- tions are objected to, as being harsh and uncharitable. But surely this is a mistaken notion. The words of the Creed are, in fact, little else than the words of our Lord Himself. The Creed says, Except a man believe the Catholic faith, "he cannot be saved, " and "shall perish everlastingly :" Christ says, " He that belie veth not, shall be damned, "^ This creed, then, in its state- ment, merely repeats our Lord's own declaration. There can be nothing uncharitable in this. The words are simply used as a grave warning, solemnly remind- ing members of the Church of what the fatal con- sequences to their own souls must be if they renounce the essential doctrines of the Christian faith.
