For centuries, Baptists have published confessions of faith as formal statements of their beliefs. Chief among these is the Second London Baptist Confession of Faith of 1689. This doctrinal statement is a spiritual treasure trove worthy of our fresh attention. In this new study, more than twenty contributors unpack its timeless biblical truths, â¿things which are most surely believed among usâ¿ (Luke 1:1). Our prayer is that the Lord will use this volume to richly edify and sanctify His people worldwide, and to assist the churches in pursuing biblical holiness and doctrinal purity. May these labors send Godâ¿s people back again and again to the Bible, which isâ¿as the confession statesâ¿the â¿only sufficient, certain, and infallible rule of all saving knowledge, faith,and obedienceâ¿ (1.1).
