reading the... Reformed CDs I purchased. I must say, there is nothing like
them available anywhere. It is the most amazing collection of works I know of

A Testimony Against the Unfounded
Charges of Anabaptism (1997)
by Greg Price (This book
teaches us that "[t]he heresy of Anabaptism lives today! It has infected
the modern church with its cancerous errors and heresies: anti-creedalism,
arminianism, dispensationalism, independency [sectarianism], anti-paedobaptism,
will-worship [anti-regulativism], perfectionism, societal escapism, religious
pluralism and tolerationism [anti-establishmentarianism], denial of the
perpetual obligation of social covenanting, pacifism, pietism, socialism,
premillennialism, and a refusal to recognize *lawful* civil government as the
ordinance of God. These unbiblical positions of the Anabaptists were not
tolerated by the Reformed Churches of the First and Second Reformations, and
neither should they be tolerated by any Church today that claims to be Reformed
or Presbyterian" [Greg Price]. Far to little contemporary Reformed writing
has been directed against the Anabaptists, especially in light of the fact that
many of their heresies have been generally adopted by professing Christians.
Even the "Reformed" community suffers from this contagion. Lord
willing, this book with be an effective antidote to the "AIDS" of
Anabaptist thought and practice. This item is also available as a bound
photocopy for $4.49 [US funds])

indication why the best theologians in the Netherlands were ready to swear the

regarding the civil magistrate [establishments], God's law, anti-tolerationism,
historical testimony, true unity, false teachers, the Sabbath, "Roman
feast days," worship, etc. Translated here for the first time from Dutch

A Short Vindication of our
Covenanted Reformation (1879)
Until the church comes to terms with what is written in this book it will
remain weak and divided. Covenant breakers will not prosper, as this rare item
demonstrates from both Scripture and history. The power packed ordinance of
covenanting, (the National and Solemn League and Covenant in particular), was
foundational to the second Reformation and the work of the Westminster
Assembly. "By the National Covenant our fathers laid Popery prostrate. By
the Solemn League and Covenant they were successful in resisting prelatic
encroachments and civil tyranny. By it they were enabled to achieve the Second
Reformation... They were setting up landmarks by which the location and limits
of the city of God will be known at the dawn of the millennial day... How can
they be said to go forth by the footsteps of the flock, who have declined from
the attainments, renounced the covenants and contradicted the testimony of 'the
cloud of witnesses."...All the schisms (separations) that disfigure the
body mystical of Christ... are the legitimate consequences of the abandonment
of reformation attainments, the violation of covenant engagements." If you
are interested in knowing how to recognize a faithful church (or state), when
and why to separate from unfaithful institutions, who has held up the standard
of covenanted Reformation attainments and who has backslidden (and why), what
it means to subscribe to the Westminster Confession (and why most that say they
do so today do not have any idea of what that means), and much more concerning
individual, family, church and civil duties, this is one of the best books you
will ever lay your hands on. It chronicles "some instances of worldly
conformity and mark(s) some steps of defection from our 'covenanted unity and
uniformity,' " noting how "it is necessary to take a retrospect of
our history for many years; for we did not all at once reach our present
condition of sinful ignorance and manifold apostasy." Presbyterian and the
Reformed churches lay under the heavy hand of God's judgement in our day,
because of the very defections noted throughout this fine work. "We heard
(hear) from various quarters the cry, 'maintain the truth, stand up for the
principles of the Second Reformation;' and yet many of those who are the most
loud in uttering this cry, appear desirous to bury in oblivion those
imperishable national and ecclesiastical deeds, by which the church and kingdom
of Scotland became 'married to the Lord.'" Are we married to the Lord, or
have we thrown off the covenants of our forefathers; are we the chaste bride of
Christ, or a harlot who is found in the bedchambers of every devilish suitor
(whether ecclesiastical or civil) who tempts us with the favors of this world?
Let us cry out, as with "the noble Marquis of Argyle, upon the scaffold,"
when he said, "God hath tied us by covenants to religion and reformation.
These that were then unborn are yet engaged, and it passeth the power of all
the magistrates under heaven to absolve them from the oath of God. They deceive
themselves, and it may be, would deceive others, who think otherwise." Not
for the weak of heart.

Plain Reasons for
Presbyterians Dissenting from the Revolution Church of Scotland. Also, Their
Principles Concerning Civil Government, and the Difference Betwixt the
Reformation and Revolution Principles (1731)
An exceedingly rare and important book now back in print after 265 years! The Contending
Witness magazine (May,
1841) described Plain Reasons
"as the single best volume penned defending the principles of the
second Reformation."
It sets forth "the grounds why Presbyterian Dissenters refused to hold
communion with the revolution church and state," (Reformed Presbytery, Act
Declaration and Testimony for the Whole of Our Covenanted Reformation, p. 154n). The biblical principles
contained in this book still apply today and thus Plain Reasons remains one of the best books explaining
why (and when) an individual (church or citizen) should separate himself (or
itself) from those (in church or state) who do not hold fast to all the
attainments of our covenanted Reformation forefathers. In this regard the session of the
Puritan Reformed Church of Edmonton calls this the one book that best explains
why faithful Covenanted Presbyterians must, for conscience sake, remain
ecclesiastically separate from all Presbyterian denominations that have
backslidden from second Reformation attainments. (This being the classic
corporate Calvinistic application of such commands as "Nevertheless,
whereto we have already attained,
let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing" [Phil. 3:16,
emphasis added]. It is also the acknowledgement that the Lord has clearly
stated in his Word that he "requireth that which is past" [Eccl.
3:15]).
Furthermore, the session of the PRC of Edmonton has noted that this book
"clearly spells out the reasons why to unite with the Revolution Church
(1689) or any of its descendants (The Free Church of Scotland, The Free Presbyterian
Church of Scotland, and American Presbyterian Churches) is to undermine and
subvert the work of the Second Reformation. The argumentation is cogent (with
an abundant supply of documentation). The reading can be divided up into 5-10
pages at a time. Reasons 8 and 9 (pp. 77-91) which speak to the issue of the
covenants are very helpful, as is Reason 14 (pp. 138-140) which covers the
matter of terms of communion. We might also highlight Clarkson's treatment of
ecclesiastical dissent (pp. 172-221 wherein he discusses schism) and political
dissent (pp. 221-280). This is the best apologetic we have read defending
the necessity of Presbyterians to faithfully maintain the attainments of the
Second Reformation"
(emphasis added). Moreover, Clarkson's section on schism, separation and the
nature of the visible church (constitutionally considered) contains over 10
pages of notes and quotes taken from numerous Reformers including: Beza,
Rutherford, Gillespie, Dickson, Durham, M'Ward (Rutherford's disciple), Marshall,
Watson, Cotton, Owen, Burroughs, Fraser, and Case -- demonstrating that his
ideas regarding dissent from corrupt and backsliding civil or ecclesiastical
governments are not new, but merely classic Reformation doctrine. The book also
answers a multitude of pertinent and realistic objections in sections
conveniently located directly after each reason for dissent.
Moreover, the days of the revolution settlement were a time of civil and
ecclesiastical confusion not unlike our own day -- the beast (civil and
ecclesiastical) was attempting to devour the "woman in the
wilderness" by a cunning mixture of half-truths that were designed to
beguile an exhausted and persecution-weary remnant. The consequences of the actions taken in these days, by
both church and state "officials," have been amplified by time and apply directly to our contemporary
civil and ecclesiastical situation ("That which hath been is now"
[Eccl. 3:15]).
The Reformed Presbytery's Act, Declaration and Testimony (p. 47) further explains the original
historical context -- so germane to the thesis of this book -- regarding those
deceptively trying days which followed the "killing times" and final
martyrs' death of that period of persecution (being the death of the covenanted
Presbyterian minister James Renwick, who sealed his testimony with his blood
February 17, 1688).
Of the so-called "glorious revolution of 1688" and the overthrow of
the Royalist tyranny the Reformed Presbytery's measured and discerning comments
read, "for in a few months, God in his righteous judgement and adorable
providence, overturned that (Royalist--RB) throne of iniquity on which they
(the persecuting popish, prelatical, Erastian, antichristian [civil and
ecclesiastical] "authorities" which were then wondering after the beast--RB)
depended, and expelled that inhuman, cruel monster (the duke of York--RB), from
his tyrannical and usurped power, upon the Prince of Orange's (William of
Orange--RB) coming over into England, in the beginning of November that same
year (1688--RB). But although the Lord at this juncture, and by this means,
rescued and delivered our natural and civil rights and privileges in a national
way, from under the oppression and bondage of anti-christian tyranny, arbitrary
and absolute power; yet the revolution, at this time, brought no real
deliverance to the church of God; but Christ's rights (by these [rights--RB]
are not meant the rights of Christ personal. It is not in the power of mortals,
or any creature, to acquire and secure these to him; but the rights of Christ
mystical, that is, of the church, or of his truth, true worship, and religion,
and professors of it as such.), formerly acquired for him by his faithful
servants, lay still buried under the rubbish of that anti-christian building of
prelacy, erected on the ruins of his work in this land; and the spiritual
liberties and privileges of his house remained, and do still remain under the
bondage of Erastianism, supremacy, toleration, etc. For it is well known, that
although this man (William of Orange--RB), Jehu-like, 'destroyed Baal out of
Israel, yet he departed not from the sins of Jereboam, wherewith he made Israel
to sin.'"
As a second witness to the testimony also given throughout Clarkson's Plain
Reasons see pages 55 and
following in the Act, Declaration and Testimony for more on "the grounds of the
presbytery's testimony against the constitutions, both civil and
ecclesiastical, at the late revolution, anno 1689; as also against the gross
Erastianism and tyranny that has attended the administration both of church and
state, since that memorable period; with various instances thereof, etc."
Since these momentous days Antichrist and his minions have sought to bury the
covenanted Reformation and its attainments (upholding Christ's Kingship over
both church and state) under the rubbish of democratic, humanistic, atheistic,
tolerationism and a "detestable neutrality" in the cause of God and
truth -- the same "detestable neutrality" so strongly inveighed
against in the Solemn league and Covenant. Commenting on this defection from
within professing Christendom,
Clarkson writes, "It is also evident from this, that Schism from our
covenanted Church consists in this,
to wit, When the Members of the Church make Defection to the contrary part,
that is in plain Terms, when they associate or incorporate with, assist and
defend the Parties against whom the Covenant (Solemn League and Covenant--RB)
was made and sworn, viz. Papists, Prelatist and their Underlings, Hereticks,
&c. the common Enemies of Reformation; and fall from the Duties of
Preserving and propagating the Reformation of the three Kingdoms; and refuse to
join with, assist and defend those, who adhere to the Covenants, in the
necessary Work of Renewing them, for Extirpation of Popery, Prelacy, Erastianism,
Superstition, Heresy, Error and Profaneness, and whatsoever is contrary to
sound Doctrine and the Power of Godliness; and for re-establishing, preserving,
and propagating the covenanted Reformation, once happily established in these
Lands, and sworn unto by our Covenants. Furthermore, Schism from our covenanted
Church consists in this, viz, When Members, Ministers or others, give
themselves to a detestable Indifferency and Neutrality, in the Cause of God,
namely, in the preserving and propagating the covenanted Reformation of these
three Kingdoms; that is to say, When Men are like so many Gallio's in the Cause
of God, preferring worldly Ease, Honour and Wealth, their own Interest to the
Interest of Christ, become easy, whether the covenanted Reformation in these
Lands sink or swim; and, from a cowardly Disposition in some, and a malignant,
perfidious Temper in others, coalesce and accord in apostatizing from the
Articles of Covenant foresaid, the Cause of God, and its honest-hearted
Friends; and frighted from both, as if they thought it both Sin and Shame to
have it said, that they carried any warm Side to either the one or the other. I
say, All Members of this National Church, who, on Account of any Combination,
Persuasion, or Terror and Fear of worldly Loss, of Sufferings of whatsoever
Kind, are guilty in any of these two Cases, are also guilty of making SCHISM
from the covenanted Church, as is clearly manifest by the 6th Article of our
Solemn Covenant" (pp. 182-184, , emphasis added).
Commenting on the common charge of schism leveled against those who would
maintain the attainments of the covenanted Reformation, Clarkson writes: "Now, upon the
whole of this Objection, as 'tis plain, Presbyterian Dissenters are not
Schismatics, nor deserve to be so called; so 'tis a most groundless and
shameless Reflection, to call them Separatists, tho' 'tis the ordinary Name of
Epithet given them, especially in Print; yet to me, and I judge to many others,
it is a Wonder with what Audacity, Men of Sobriety and Conscience should have
the confidence to speak at such a Rate, unless they intend, in a desperate
Humour, to render their Authority every where, amongst all sober persons,
contemptible: For, if two Persons, walking upon a high Path-Road, on the Brink
of a Puddle, the one of them by a Blast of Wind tumbling headlong into the
Gulf; when weltering amidst the Glare and miery Clay, cries up to his Neighbor
upon the Brink, Sir, unless you tumble over after me, I will look upon you as a
Separatist: Which of the two are to be judged most insnared into the Course of
Separation, whether the Person keeping the High-way, or the poor Man wallowing
in the polluted Mire, Crying upon his Neighbour to unite with him in that his
miserable Estate? Est solatium miseris habere socios doloris, ('Tis Comfort to Persons in Misery to
have Companions.) Have not this present Church thrown themselves over into
the Ditch of Pollution, in complying with these dreadful Apostates of this and
the former times? And,
shall these be judged Separatists, who dare not, who cannot, and may not in
Conscience follow their Example? Can such as join with, and strengthen them, be
able to purge themselves from the Guilt and Judgements, which accompany this
shameful Defection? For an Union here (so much cried up) without Debate, is the
Brotherhood of Simeon and Levi: It is an Union in the Course of Sin and Wrath,
and not in Truth and Duty" (pp. 206-207, emphasis added).
For more of this strong tonic get the whole book -- it is one of the
strongest and clearest calls that we have ever seen for the church to repent of
its covenant-breaking and backsliding and return to its first love at the
corporate level (covenantal and constitutional).
In short, Clarkson's Plain Reasons,
contains the highest quality of Reformation thought regarding the subjects of
which it deals. It is undoubtedly a major Reformation classic and should be
studied by all those who are serious about seeing the destruction of the
present tyranny (which is expressed in the modern civil and ecclesiastical
Babylon erected by those that oppose the covenanted Reformation and the
implementation of the Crown rights of King Jesus over the whole Earth!).
