Certificate in the Westminster Confession

The Westminster Confession, one class per chapter, with the catechisms and the Three Forms beside it.

About the program

Thirty-three classes, one for each chapter of the Westminster Confession of Faith in the 1647 text. Each class gives the chapter with its Scripture proofs, the catechism questions and the continental parallels that teach the same doctrine, a lecture and readings, the history of the doctrine, Roman Catholic teaching in its own words, objections answered and a written assignment. The certificate stands on its own and is also the first unit of every degree, so the credits carry forward.

Admission

Open to all. Students affirm the school's statement of faith (Westminster Standards, 1647 text, and the Three Forms of Unity).

Requirements

  • Complete all 33 classes, including the written assignment of each class.
  • Affirm the statement of faith on enrollment.
