• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Just wondering if any of the largest Protestant groups have their own catechisms? The Catholic catechisms are helpful in getting an overview of their major doctrines & practices.

Searchable PDFs preferred, no HTML please.

But to All - I am not going to convert from Mahayana, just studying what goodness is there in Christian branches.

NO MORE NOW - AS OF 12 OCT.

Not interested in the study in your first link, but the actual large one by Luther is dandy!

You might find the Book of Concord website easier to navigate Just use the left side panel to click to the different sections.

Small Catechism:
The Small Catechism - Book of Concord

Large Catechism:
The Large Catechism - Book of Concord

EDIT: My bad, it seemed you wanted searchable PDFs. There's a link to a pdf version of the Small Catechism in the first link. It would seem others have already provided links to pdf versions of the Large Catechism.
