Confessing the Father's Confession About the Son

“Just admit it; we know it was you!” “How long since your last confession?” “Do you solemnly swear that you will tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?” These are all examples of calls to confess the truth where the one confessing the truth is left on their own to formulate the words. But, when it comes to confessing the truth of the Christian faith, Christians are given the words. We don’t have to formulate them ourselves.
