The London Baptist Confession of 1689 and the Westminster Confession of Faith
For my Th.M. thesis at Westminster Seminary in Philadelphia, I wrote a comparison of the London Baptist Confession of 1677/1689 and the Westminster Confession of Faith of 1646. At the heart of the thesis was a harmony of the two confessions, laboriously typed on a portable typewriter by my wife. The thesis explored the differences between the confessions as suggested by the harmony. The point of the thesis was to argue that the Second London Confession was a confession in its own right, and not just a Baptist recension of the Westminster Confession as Philip Schaff suggested. I will be trying, as time and energy permit, to publish in this blog the material from my thesis that supports this argument.
