This course expounds the Westminster Standards in the same way, requiring students to coherently express what they learn in each section. Solidifying one\u2019s grasp of the material in this way aids application: the Westminster doctrines become second nature\u2014a part of life, not merely preparation for an exam.<\/p>\n<p>The Confession chapters are presented within a clear framework, referring frequently to the textual references, and appropriate excerpts from the Confession and Catechisms are reprinted for readers\u2019 convenience. Revisions and additions made over the years, including those by American Presbyterians addressing the separation of church and state, are also discussed.
