Description: The Westminster Confession is a foundational document for countless churches worldwide. Churches of all sizes claim it as their confession, and hold to it with varying degrees of closeness. Its influence must not be underestimated. However, countless officeholders will have vowed to abide by the Westminster Confession with only the most perfunctory of understanding of its relevance to their situation.

Ligon Duncan has assembled an impressive array of contributors from a variety of ecclesiastical backgrounds. The aim is simple – to enable the 21st Century to understand the confession more fully, and so bring about the same kind of rugged, vigorous, intelligent and self-sacrificing Christianity that was the result of its initial publication over 350 years ago. This important collection of essays seeks to place the work of the Assembly in its historical, theological, political, and social setting, challenge historical assertions commonly made about Westminster in its relation to both earlier and later Reformed theology, provide fresh evaluation of its place in and contribution to the Calvinian tradition, and commend it as a faithful expression of clear-headed Christian thinking. 

In the first of four volumes, the topics covered include:
--Baptists and the Westminster Confession
--Finney's attack on the Westminster Confession
--The Westminster Confession and the Relationship of Church and State
--The Holy Spirit and the Westminster Confession.

"…a most worthy undertaking…that is quite timely not only because of the anniversary of the Assembly but also because of the clear need in Presbyterian and Reformed circles for scholarly work on the Reformed tradition and its confessions."
--Richard A. Muller, PhD. Professor Calvin Theological Seminary,Grand Rapids
