""On The Profit Of The Believing And On The Creed"" is a book by St. Augustine, a prominent theologian and philosopher of the early Christian Church. The book is a collection of sermons and writings on the importance of faith, belief, and the Christian creed.

The first part focuses on the benefits of believing in God and the importance of faith in one's life.

The second part of the book is devoted to an exposition of the Christian creed. St. Augustine provides a detailed analysis of the various elements of the creed, such as the belief in the Holy Trinity, the virgin birth, and the resurrection of Christ. He explains the significance of these beliefs and how they relate to the Christian faith as a whole. Overall, ""On The Profit Of The Believing And On The Creed"" is a profound and insightful work that explores the nature of faith and its importance in the Christian life.
