Thanks , Dr. Clark. This was wonderful. I appreciate you saying that De Bres “paid for his faithfulness with his life.” The BC is so clear on justification; De Bres thought it worth dying for. We (I am sure myself included) are so quick to minimize justification or to take it for granted, forgetting that this precious doctrine has been passed down to us through blood.
Overall, the Belgic Confession continues to be my favorite confessional standard (though I also really appreciate the other confessions and catechisms and their distinctive strengths).
God bless you and Westminster Seminary, Dr. Clark. Thank you for your faithfulness. May He richly bless you and WSCAL with continued simplicity of faith in Christ.
