The Westminster Confession of Faith contains a simple
exhibition of the truth, based upon the Word of God; but its several
propositions are laid in opposition to the heresies and errors which had been
disseminated in various ages. It has, therefore, been a prominent object of the
author of the Exposition to point out the numerous errors against which the
statements in the Confession are directed. The reader will thus find the
deliverance of the Westminster of Divines upon the various errors by which the
truth has been corrupted in former times, and will be guarded against modern
errors, which are generally only a revival of those that had previously
disturbed the Church, and that had been long ago refuted.
Robert Shaw, The
Reformed Faith: An Exposition of the Westminster Confession of Faith, from the
preface.
