Scripture and Worship


Book Description

The Westminster Standards have long been the confessional benchmark of Presbyterian churches the world over. Many today, however, consider them to be shallow, ignorant, over-systemized documents. Muller and Ward take a fresh look at the Standards, placing them in their historical context and presenting useful background to help modern-day readers understand these important documents. - Publisher.










The Theology of the Westminster Standards


Book Description

For centuries, countless Christians have turned to the Westminster Standards for insights into the Christian faith. These renowned documents—first published in the middle of the 17th century—are still considered by many to be some of the most beautifully written summaries of the Bible's teaching ever produced. Church historian John Fesko walks readers through the background and theology of the Westminster Confession, the Larger Catechism, and the Shorter Catechism, helpfully situating them within their original context. Organized according to the major categories of systematic theology, this book utilizes quotations from other key works from the same time period to shed light on the history and significance of these influential documents.

The Westminster Directory of Public Worship


Book Description

The Westminster Assembly of Divines convened in Westminster Abbey during the time of the Long Parliament, 1643-1648. Commissioned originally to bring clarity to the theological convictions of the Church of England, the Assembly of Divines drafted several important documents that would also influence the Church of Scotland, and the Puritan movement in general. Among those documents were the Westminster Confession of Faith, the Westminster Shorter Catechism, the Larger Catechism, and a Directory for Public Worship. Though lesser used today than the other documents, the Directory for Public Worship nevertheless gives churches a strong and reliable guide for ordering public worship services, including the administration of the sacraments, in the Reformed Tradition.
