Product Review

The Westminster Larger Catechism is well worth our study. It unifies Presbyterians who use it as one of their church standards. It gives us all Christians the meat of the Word of God. It places a greater emphasis on, and gives fuller explanations of, doctrines that maturing Christians need to hear. It emphasizes aspects of the gospel and draws directly from Scripture in a way that other catechisms do not. And the Larger Catechism emphasizes the church, the ministry, preaching, and the sacraments at a time when all Christians—need to hear of them. Spurgeon, a Baptist, found the use of the Westminster Catechisms of tremendous value, even drawing from them in forming a catechism of his own. He extolled their use in the family as a valuable tool in discipling our children. This edition is newly typeset in larger-print and in a large 8.5" x 11" format with wider margins, lending itself to study. It is complete with all full Scripture proof texts supporting each question and its answer.
