This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 650 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Westminster Confession of Faith Examined on the Basis of the Other Protestant Confessions The body of this work contains, besides the explanation and proof of the propositions prefixed to it, the explanation and proof at large of certain statements made in a treatise published by the author in 1866, under the title 'The Biblical and Patristic doctrine of Salvation.' The propositions prefixed to this work were first sketched in 1855, to be laid before the Session of St. Giles's Church, Edinburgh. The author deemed himself fully justified in resolving to take this step, by certain circumstances stated in detail in the first Appendix, which rendered it still more necessary for the vindication of Christian truth, than of his own rights as a Christian and citizen; though he deemed the latter to have been grossly outraged.

This book was released on 2016-04-14 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Westminster Confession of Faith is the greatest of all the creeds of the Christian Church. Since its first publication in 1646 it has remained absolutely unsurpassed as an accurate and concise statement of Christian doctrine. Among all the shifting sands of theological opinion here is solid truth, for it has its foundation in the unchanging truth of Scripture--witness the copious references from the Bible which are printed on each page. Because of its faithfulness to Scripture the Confession has permanent worth and abiding relevance. The Church of Christ cannot be creedless and live. Especially in an age of doubt and confusion, it is her duty to define the Christian faith and to proclaim it to the world. Nowhere has the Reformed Church done this so effectively as in The Westminster Confession of Faith. While always recognising the supreme place of the Word of God in all matters of faith and practice, one can always turn to the Confession as one's subordinate standard. Here readers will find spiritual treasure; here too they will find comfort and strength. Also contained in this volume are the magnificent Larger and Shorter Catechisms, The Sum of Saving Knowledge, The National Covenant, The Solemn League and Covenant, The Directory for the Public Worship of God, The Form of Presbyterial Church Government, and The Directory for Family Worship.

Its more controversial features include the covenant of works with Adam, the Puritan doctrine that assurance of salvation is not a necessary consequence of faith, a minimalist conception of worship, and a strict sabbatarianism

Book excerpt: by The Westminster DivinesDownloadin EPUB format, also available for Kindle or in PDFThe Westminster Confession of Faith is a Reformed confession of faith, in the Calvinist theological tradition. Although drawn up by the 1646 Westminster Assembly, largely of the Church of England, it became and remains the 'subordinate standard' of doctrine in the Church of Scotland, and has been influential within Presbyterian churches worldwide.In 1643, the English Parliament called upon "learned, godly and judicious Divines", to meet at Westminster Abbey in order to provide advice on issues of worship, doctrine, government and discipline of the Church of England. Their meetings, over a period of five years, produced the confession of faith, as well as a Larger Catechism and a Shorter Catechism. For more than three centuries, various churches around the world have adopted the confession and the catechisms as their standards of doctrine, subordinate to the Bible.The Westminster Confession of Faith was modified and adopted by Congregationalists in England in the form of the Savoy Declaration (1658). Likewise, the Baptists of England modified the Savoy Declaration to produce the Second London Baptist Confession (1689). English Presbyterians, Congregationalists, and Baptists would together (with others) come to be known as Nonconformists, because they did not conform to the Act of Uniformity (1662) establishing the Church of England as the only legally-approved church, though they were in many ways united by their common confessions, built on the Westminster Confession.

This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How Shall We Revise the Westminster Confession of Faith?: A Bundle of Papers There seems to be an increasing interest in the ques tion of the Revision of the Westminster Confession of Faith. Many papers and numerous pamphlets have been published relating to this subject. The first question to be determined is whether there is to be a revision at all. This question seems to have been decided already by the Christian public, and by the votes of the presbyteries of the Presbyterian Church, in favor of Revision. It mat ters little how great the majority for Revision may be, the Revision movement has already succeeded. The next question that arises is, How shall we revise the West minster Confession? There is little agreement at this point among revisionists. It is important that this ques tion should now receive some attention. This question is the theme of the Bundle of Papers that is now presented to the public in this volume. These papers were prepared by men of kindred spirit. Some of them have been pub Iished in other forms in the periodical literature of the day. Others were delivered in debate on the floors of presbyteries. These have been revised by their authors for this volume. But at least one-half of the material was. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
