Westminster Confession of Faith in Everyday Language

“As much as I love the Westminster Confession in its original language, I hate seeing people so frustrated and puzzled by this document’s language, or by its complex grammar, that they get distracted from the beauty of what it says about God and the gospel. I’m sure the Confession was clearer to its first readers—but word meanings and writing styles change significantly over time. So, I’ve done something that I hope is helpful and loving. I’m trying to state the meaning of the Westminster Confession of Faith in language that is easier to read and understand and make the content of this Confession accessible to a wider range of people.” – Jimmy Agan
