Rule of Faith

The rule of faith (Greek: κανών της πίστεως, Latin: regula fidei) is the name given to the ultimate authority in Christian belief or fundamental hermeneutic (interpretive) standard (e.g., for biblical interpretation.). It was used by Early Christian writers such as Tertullian. The phrase is sometimes used for early creeds.
