A Guide to the Westminster Standards will be a great help in understanding the Bible and its most complete summaries, the Westminster Standards." -- Publisher's Annotation. One way to be strengthened and encouraged in times of trouble, discouragement, and depressions is to read pure doctrine to remind oneself of what is, in fact, true. Includes a unique, 100-page topical index to both the Confession and the Catechism that is highly recommended.
