rdfs:comment
  • The Westminster Confession of Faith is a Reformed confession of faith in the Calvinist theological tradition. Although drawn up by the 1646 Westminster Assembly, largely of the Church of England, it became the 'subordinate standard' of doctrine in the Church of Scotland and has been influential within Presbyterian churches worldwide. With selected changes it has also been adopted by some Congregationalists and was the basis for the 1689 London Baptist Confession.
