What do Lutherans believe? The summary of what we believe the Bible teaches us is found in a book called The Book of Concord. Fully published in 1580 (34 years after the death of Martin Luther), The Book of Concord contains several items:

• The Creeds: Apostles’ Creed, Nicene Creed, and Athanasian Creed

• The Augsburg Confession

• The Apology of the Augsburg Confession

• The Smalcald Articles

• The Treatise on the Power and Primacy of the Pope

• The Small Catechism

• The Large Catechism

• The Formula of Concord
