1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith

Posted by acts242 on January 2, 2009

1689bcf As a part of our current series, “Questions Answered: An ongoing series on Doctrines”, we will study through the 1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith.  Charles Haddon Spurgeon had this to say about this historic document,

“This ancient document is the most excellent epitome of the things most surely believed among us.  It is not issued as an authoritative rule or code of faith, whereby you may be fettered, but as a means of edification in righteousness.  It is an excellent, though not inspired, expression of the teaching of those Holy Scriptures by which all confessions are to be measured.  We hold to the humbling truths of God’s sovereign grace in the salvation of lost sinners.  Salvation is through Christ alone and by faith alone.”
