Westminster Confession Defended

This little book by WGT Shedd is a mini-masterpiece. In it, Shedd reprints a number of articles written for various reformed publications during one,of the many,disputes between strict-subscriptionists to the Westminster Confession(like Shedd)and those who would water it down. History has proven Shedd right as the "loose-subscriptionist" party eventually discarded the Confession entirely and carried the manistream Presbyterian church(save for the conservatives who left and founded other denominations)into apostasy. Even though this was written for an earlier controversy, this same issue is alive today in many denominations (like the Presbyterian Church in America-PCA) where confessionalists clash with those who value church attendance statistics over the truth.
