Briggs’ analysis of the confession “Jesus is Lord” implicitly indicates the limitations of Searle’s categorization of speech acts. In an attempt to classify the confession of faith according to Searle’s categorization, the theologically relevant properties of confession remain blurred.

In this article, we aim at establishing the categorization of speech acts of faith discourse on the basis of their transformative and communicative dimensions.
