Recovering the Reformed Confession
October 20, 2008
R. Scott Clark has a new book out, published by P&R: Recovering the Reformed Confession: Our Theology, Piety, and Practice.
Here's the heart of it: "It is the argument of this book that the Reformed confession is the only reasonable basis for a stable definition of the Reformed theology, piety, and practice. As a class of churches that profess allegiance to the Reformed theology, piety, and practice as revealed in God's Word and summarized in the Reformed confessions, we have drifted from our moorings. Some of us have lost confidence about what it is to be Reformed, while others of us have lost confidence altogether that Reformed theology, piety, and practice are even correct."
