History has a way of repeating itself.
And when it comes to Church History, false teachings have a way of repeating themselves, too.
That was definitely the case at the time of the Reformation. As Lutheran Reformers sought to positively make the case that their confession was historic and purely biblical (nothing new, nothing innovative), they had to intentionally distance themselves from all sorts of contemporary groups pushing unscriptural teachings - outside and inside the Church. That type of positive and negative argumentation is what we begin to see in the first two articles of the Augsburg Confession.
In Article I, the Lutheran Confessors reiterated their affirmation of the biblical doctrine of the Trinity - that God is one divine essence in three distinct persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
In Article II, the Reformers underscored the biblical doctrine of Original Sin - an unparalleled "disease" that (as the Bible clearly teaches) renders us unable to either save ourselves or cooperate in or contribute to our salvation.
