• The Belgic Confession
• The Canons of Dort
• The Heidelberg Catechism

The Christian Reformed Church subscribes to the following three ecumenical creeds:

• The Apostles' Creed
• The Athanasian Creed
• The Nicene Creed

* Article 9 of the Belgic Confession names three writings, dating from the first centuries of the Christian church, that we willingly accept as creeds: the Apostles' Creed, the Nicene Creed, and the Athanasian Creed. The adoption of the Belgic Confession by the synods of the Reformed churches in the Netherlands during the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries implicitly approved the three creeds mentioned above. They are call ecumenical (general, universal) because they have been approved and accepted by nearly all Christian churches.
