The BCF Assistant has several extended features to those found in the BCFHelp, program. Some of these
additional features include:
– Original 1677 Confession text.
– The opening letter to “the
Judicious and Impartial Reader” from the 1677 text.
– The Appendix to the
1677 text in which the authors defend their Baptistic Principles and
Convictions.
– Chapter Outlines taken from Samuel E. Waldron’s book, A
Modern Exposition of the 1689 – Baptist Confession of Faith, (Evangelical Press,
1989).
– A section on the Doctrine and Theology of the Confession (various
authors included Pastors Sam Waldron and Greg Nichols, Grand Rapids, MI, USA).
– A section outlining some of the Historical Background of the Confession
and how it came to be, including some biographical information on some of those
who were signatories to the Confession in 1689. This section principally comes
from Dr James Renihan (Institute for Reformed Baptist Studies, Escondido, CA,
USA.).
The opening address to the reader and the appendix are of particular
interest because these are not commonly published in book form along with the
Confession.
