Confessing the Faith: A reader's Guide to the Westminster Confession of Faith
This accessible
biblical
and thoughtful work digests years of study and teaching into bite-sized sections. Van Dixhoorn's work is historical and practical in its focus. It deliberately presents readers with more than another survey of Reformed theology; it offers a guide to a particular text
considers its original proof-texts
and seeks to deepen our understanding of each paragraph of the Confession.
Confessing the Faith: A reader's Guide to the Westminster Confession of Faith
God's Ambassadors: The Westminster Assembly and the Reformation of the English Pulpit
1643-1653
For more than ten years the Westminster assembly was one of the major institutions of England
Scotland
and Ireland. Members of the assembly were involved in every significant political debate of the decade
and the public blamed or blessed the think-tank for radical changes in the church. At home and abroad
people perceived the assembly to be a powerful patron. Christians wrote from Europe to ask the assembly for advice. Visitors made their way to the abbey
from an unknown Muslim to the elector palatine of the Rhine. Printers and booksellers promoted the works of the synod's theologians and members were paraded down London streets and feasted at banquets. \n\nThe story of the Westminster assembly's accomplishments
as well as its failures
are told in the texts of this edition. The gathering left behind an extraordinary testimony of its reforming activities
and the manuscript minutes constitute one of the most important unpublished religious texts of seventeenth-century Britain. All surviving votes and debates of the assembly are provided here for the first time. This edition documents almost 2
000 examinations of preachers for churches
fellows for colleges
and heretics for heresy. It also includes all known assembly papers
many of them only recently discovered. These texts reveal much of the assembly's work behind the scenes
and explain how the gathering could at once serve as an icon of godly rule
producing classic texts in the history of Christian doctrine and practice
while simultaneously becoming entangled in prolonged debates and the 'democratic anarchy' which characterized the British Revolution.
