The Helvetic Consensus Formula

The Swiss Reformed churches

Read elsewhere

What it is

A confession defending limited atonement against Saumur theology and asserting the inspiration of the Hebrew vowel points as part of the original text.

Why it lasted

The last confession of Reformed orthodoxy and a case study in over-reach: its claim about the vowel points was untenable and it was abandoned within decades.

Where to read it

Public domain and free to read in full, though not held here. The archives below have it.

These open a search on each archive rather than a direct link, which is the honest way to point at an edition nobody here has checked line by line.
