THE WESTMINSTER CONFESSION: ANCIENT TEXT, AGELESS TRUTHS

FROM YOUNG TO SENIOR, TRUTH FOR ALL AGES.

MAY 5th. SUNDAY SCHOOL COVENANT PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.

 

In 1642 the English Parliament called upon biblical scholars and clergy to provide guidance on issues of worship, doctrine, governance, and discipline for the Church of England. "The most grave, pious, learned, and judicious divines of this island"[1], drew up a comprehensive summary of the doctrines of the Christian faith which came to be known as the Westminster Confession of Faith.

Covenant Presbyterian Church Sunday School invites you for an exciting journey through a few chapters of the Westminster Confession of Faith this Spring. By offering an encapsulation of the doctrines of grace, a comprehensive summation of the Gospel, and a systematic approach to the main doctrines of the Christian faith, the Westminster speaks to every Christian.

We hope this series will speak to you offering hope, encouragement, and assurance from biblical truths brought forth through the arrangement and organization of the Confession
