This volume, the first in existence since the mid 17th century, is the 1647 version of the Westminster Confession of Faith, and its subordinate documents which comprise the Larger and Shorter Catechisms, the Form of Presbyterial Church Government, the directories for Public and Private Worship and the Sum of Saving Knowledge; also included is a topical index. The Confession itself is proved by Scripture using, for the first time since it was first penned and finalized in 1647, the 1599 Geneva Bible (the Bible of the Puritans). Whether this volume is owned electronically or in the hardback edition, it is not only needful today (amidst the changes that many denominations have made to the Confession and its standards) but also because such a volume is often in and out of print, it makes it difficult to own something so valuable. Puritan Publications is excited to have the 1647 Westminster Confession combined with the 1599 Geneva Bible for the first time in centuries.The 1647 Westminster Confession of Faith is the best confession produced by the Christian Church. Though the Christian Church takes the whole Word of God alone as her only rule of faith, she must also frame and promote a statement of what she understands the Word of God to teach. Thus, the church should rely on the BEST confession she can make. This is it!
