Waldron does give pertinent information regarding the Confession (such as when it varies from the Westminster &amp; Savoy) but the emphasis is decidedly on unpacking the full extent of and biblical basis for each of the positions of the Confession; he sometimes goes beyond what the Confession states and fills out the statements more. The appendices are also excellent and do mostly deal more directly with the Confession. A very good and largely thorough work for someone who wants to better understand Baptist doctrine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An excellent exposition of the doctrines contained in the 2nd London Baptist Confession.
