Description
Seven important confessional statements produced in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries have been harmonized in parallel columns, and represent three strands of Reformed churches:
1) Dutch-German with the Belgic Confession, the Heidelberg Catechism, and the Canons of Dort
2) Swiss with the Second Helvetic Confession
3) Scottish-English with the Westminster Confession of Faith and the Larger and Shorter Westminster Catechisms.
Also provided are a historical introduction to the confessions and an extensive annotated bibliography of Reformed theological writings.
