Talk:Confession of Faith (1689)

message: The list of Westminster Divines suggests that this article is factually incorrect about the authors of the Westminster Confession (i.e. they were not all Puritans), and i suspect of the Savoy Declaration as well. paulgear (talk) 04:56, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Written by Puritans? 

message: I've done this for a number of reasons:
1. The 1689 confession predates the SBC and was heavily influenced by other confessions (Westminster). Therefore it begins with Calvinism.
2. The 1689 confession is used by many Calvinistic baptist churches around the world, not just churches within the SBC.
3. The SBC has a sizeable Calvinist minority, but you would not call the SBC Calvinistic. Since the 1689 confession is about Calvinistic belief, it would be an error to assume that the SBC infobox is more important than the Calvinist one.--One Salient Oversight 07:55, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Now I've remvoed the SBC infobox and replaced it with the Baptist infobox. I didn't know there was a Baptist infobox until now and it is quite obvious that it should replace the SBC one. Sorry SBCer's! --One Salient Oversight 08:10, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

message: This may be an anachronism - Puritans existed before evangelicalism became defined historically. I'm happy for it to be left as "Puritans". --One Salient Oversight 05:26, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

message: This article seems to ignore Chapter 9 and 11 through 15 in the 1689 Confession of Faith with an over emphasis on Calvinism and an under emphasis on the Confession of faith. Those chapters in the confession alone conflict with major beliefs of Calvinism. I'm not suggesting that Baptist and the 1689 Confession of Faith are not directly associated with Calvinism but this article seems to suggest that the Confession is Calvinistic when it does contend with many tenets of Calvinist beliefs.

Is it possible to inform folks about The New Exposition of the London Baptist Confession of Faith of 1689 that is coming out in January 2023 edited by Rob Ventura?
Pls advise.
