Course Description
The Westminster Assembly was convened by the British Parliament in 1643 to produce the Longer and Shorter Catechisms. To quote the Encyclopedia Americana, the Westminster Confession of Faith is "the most widely influential Protestant theological formula in the English-speaking world."
One of the most pressing concerns of the Reformers was that the articles of the "Protestant Faith" should be passed on to the children of believers and new converts. This took the form of short doctrinal summaries such as the Westminster Confession of Faith. Using the Bible and a commentary on the Westminster Shorter Catechism as the main text, students will learn the classical outline of systematics in theology. A few of the main headings are: the Doctrine of God, the Doctrine of the Person and Work of Christ, and the Doctrine of the Application of the Work of Redemption. “The Decree of God In Prophetic Interpretation” by D.O. “Oliver” Woods serves as an online supplement to the Reformers sketchy development of Bible prophecy.
