Inhaltsangabe

The Cloud of Unknowing (Middle English: The Cloude of Unknowyng) is an anonymous work of Christian mysticism written in Middle Englishin the latter half of the 14th century. The text is a spiritual guide on contemplative prayer in the late Middle Ages. The underlying message of this work suggests that the way to know God is to abandon consideration of God's particular activities and attributes, and be courageous enough to surrender one's mind and ego to the realm of "unknowing," at which point, one may begin to glimpse the nature of God.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

The Westminster Confession of Faith was produced by the Westminster Assembly of Divines, a gathering of theologians and church leaders convened by the English Parliament in 1643. The assembly met at Westminster Abbey in London and worked for several years to develop a series of doctrinal standards for the reformation of the church. The confession, along with the Larger and Shorter Catechisms, became central documents in the Presbyterian and broader Reformed traditions and continues to serve as a doctrinal standard for many churches around the world.
