Excerpt from An Exposition of the Shorter Catechism, Vol. 1: Q. 1 to 38; Containing the Summary of Christian Doctrine
The word Catechism comes from a Greek term, which means to utter sound, and so to teach by the voice. A Catechism of religion, therefore, is a book which ives instruction in the principles of the religion ang as it is intended primarily for oral in struction, it takes the form of question and answer.
This one is called the Shorter Catechism, in order to distinguish it from another, known as the Larger Catechism, which was prepared for learners who have already some knowledge of the doctrines of the Christian religion.

Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book concisely presents a summary of Christian doctrine as set out by the Westminster Assembly. It begins by explaining the chief end of man, to glorify God and enjoy Him forever, and the role of Scripture as the guide for achieving this end. The author then explores the nature of God, emphasizing His infinity, eternity, and unchangeableness, as well as His holiness, justice, goodness, and truth. The book goes on to discuss the doctrine of the Trinity, explaining the distinct yet harmonious roles of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit within the Godhead. It then delves into the concept of God's eternal decrees, highlighting His sovereign purpose in creating and governing all things. The author examines the work of creation, emphasizing God's role in bringing all things into existence from nothing. The discussion then turns to the special act of providence God exercised toward man in creating him in His image and entering into a covenant with him, offering life on the condition of perfect obedience. The book concludes by defining sin as any deviation from God's law, leading to humanity's fall from the state of grace in which they were created. Through these insights, the author provides a comprehensive understanding of Christian doctrine, its historical context, and its profound implications for our understanding of God and humanity.
