Calvin, Close Communion and the Coming
Reformation (a book review of Alexander and Rufus... by John Anderson [1862]) by Reg Barrow (Shows how Calvin
practiced close communion and how the biblical view of this ordinance is
intended to purify the individual, church and state. Refutes the Popish and
paedocommunion heresies (regarding this sacrament), as well as all views of
open communion. Also argues that Arminians, anti-paedobaptists, anti-regulativists,
and all those who openly violate the law of God [and are unrepentant] should be
barred from the Lord's table -- as a corrective measure ordained of God for
their recovery. This is Reformation History Notes number two.)
Steve Schlissel Versus Reformation
Worship (http://www.swrb.com/Puritan/steve-schlissel.htm)
Publisher's Preface to The
Covenanted Reformation Defended Against Contemporary Schismatics (1998) by Reg Barrow (An overview of the
landmark work The Covenanted Reformation Defended
Against Contemporary Schismatics,
focusing on some of the most controversial points found therein. Contrasts the
many differences between the faith of the original Reformers with that which
goes by the name of the Reformed faith today -- with many examples from source
documents exhibiting the differences between the neopresbyterians [RPCNA,
OPC, PCA, BPC, etc.] and the paleopresbyterians [like those at the Westminster
Assembly]. Informs the
reader, in summary form, why the The Covenanted Reformation Defended "conclusively and irrefutably
demonstrates that those churches which today call themselves Presbyterian [and
even many which claim a more general Reformed heritage] have grievously
departed from the Scriptural standards and principles of these previous Spirit
led Reformations [i.e. the great Reformations of the 16th and 17th
centuries--RB]." Also shows that "when the testimony and evidence is
weighed in light of Scriptural verities, it is entirely safe to say that the
original Reformers would not only have sought negative ecclesiastical sanctions
against our modern pseudo-Reformers, but in many cases negative civil sanctions
as well." This
resource, of 23 [8.5" X 11"] pages, is also offered as a cerlox bound
photocopy [$1.98 US funds] or a Hardcover photocopy [$14.00 US funds]).
Pornography, the Anabaptists, and Doug
Wilson's Civil Antinomianism (1997) by Reg Barrow
(Pointed but irenic, Barrow decisively refutes the view of Doug Wilson (cf.
"Cyberporn: A Case Study" [Credenda/Agenda, vol. 7, no. 5, p. 11]), many modern
Theonomists and the civil libertarians, that the production and distribution of
pornography is not a crime (and thus not subject to negative penal sanctions by
the civil magistrate). Barrow demonstrates that Wilson's view of civil
government (which logically results in such a monstrous conclusion) is actually
a overly strict view of the regulative principle. This
"hyper-regulativism" (denying lawful inferences, or what Samuel
Rutherford calls "logical consequence") is then wrongly applied to
the civil magistrate, rather than to worship (when rightly interpreted). He
also points out the link between Wilson's view and the principles of the
Anabaptists, Libertines and other antiestablishmentarian forces. With an
impressive array of historical citations (primarily John Calvin, George
Gillespie, Samuel Rutherford, and the Westminster Confession of Faith), and a
cogent analysis and application of relevant Scripture passages, Barrow shows
clearly that Wilson's view of civil government "gives birth to
illegitimate offspring in the case of pornography, contradicting as it does
common sense (the light of nature), our reformed fathers in the faith, and the
express commands and approved examples of Scripture. In short, it is anything
but the 'classical Protestant' position, and anything but biblical." This
item is also available as a bound photocopy for $1.99 [US funds]) and is
appendix "B" excerpted from Saul in the Cave of Adullam: A Testimony Against the
Fashionable Sub-Calvinism of Doug Wilson (Editor of Credenda/Agenda Magazine; and, For
Classical Protestantism and the Attainments of the Second Reformation.
Saul in the Cave of Adullam: A
Testimony Against the Fashionable Sub-Calvinism of Doug Wilson (Editor of Credenda/Agenda Magazine); and, for Classical
Protestantism and the Attainments of the Second Reformation by Reg Barrow
Doug Wilson and others at Credenda/Agenda used their magazine to publicly attack and slander Reg
Barrow (President of Still Waters Revival Books) in a column that they call the
"Cave of Adullam." This invective was Credenda's response to Barrow's comments on Knox
Ring (where Barrow noted that John Calvin would have excommunicated John Frame
for the apostasy that he manifests in his new book on worship). Numerous
private attempts were unsuccessfully made (by Barrow and others) to call Wilson
to repentance for this slander. Ultimately, charges for violation of the ninth
commandment were brought (in accord with Matt. 18:15-17) against Wilson by
Barrow. This book recounts the salient points of the controversy (and the
Matthew 18 proceedings) between Wilson and Barrow -- in their actual email debates!
Also included is Barrow's demonstration of why Calvin would have excommunicated
Frame and Greg Price's Testimony Against The Unfounded Charges of Anabaptism. These debates are a classic example
of the differences that exist today between paleopresbyterians (Barrow) and
neopresbyterians (Wilson). Wilson's
charges against Barrow, of Anabaptism, separatism, etc. are all refuted under a
mountain of quotations from Reformation source documents. Barrow's refutations
of Wilson's spurious charges bring to light many aspects of Reformation thought
that have been lost or forgotten in our day. Besides the initial controversy
(over Frame and worship) and the restoration process (set forth in Matthew
18:15-17), this book should be of special interest to all of those who love the
"old paths" of truth -- trod by our forefathers in the Reformed faith
-- for some of the most pressing issues of our day (regarding the individual,
church and state) are addressed herein. Classic statements, cited by Barrow, not
only exhibit the wisdom which God granted the best Reformers of both the first
and second Reformations, but also specifically demonstrate how Wilson and many
other modern Protestants actually reject the Reformation at many points (all
their protests not withstanding). "And they that shall be of thee shall
build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many
generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer
of paths to dwell in" (Isa. 58:12). This item is also available as a bound
photocopy for $3.98 (US funds).
FREE PDF FILE: Saul in the Cave: A Debate
between Doug Wilson and Reg Barrow on Worship, Church Government, etc.
Would John Calvin Excommunicate John
Frame? by Reg
Barrow
(In this short letter Reg Barrow replies to an inquirer [on Knox Ring] asking
for comments concerning John Frame's claim [in his book on worship] that the
traditional Puritan view of the regulative principle is a
"minimalist" view of worship. Also noted in the this post was James
Jordan's assertion that the classic view of the regulative principle is
sectarian. Barrow, in the short space allotted on KR, begins to demonstrate how
both Frame and Jordan have apostatized and would have been rejected by the
Presbyterian and Reformed wing of the Reformation.)
Doug Wilson's Five Questions on the
Regulative Principle of Worship Answered by Reg Barrow
(Barrow answers five questions that Wilson has been repeating in opposition to
the classic, creedal, Presbyterian and Reformed understanding of the regulative
principle of worship. Excerpted from: Saul in the Cave of Adullam: A Testimony Against the
Fashionable Sub-Calvinism of Doug Wilson (Editor of Credenda/Agenda Magazine); and, for Classical
Protestantism and the Attainments of the Second Reformation.)

A Contemporary Covenanting Debate; Or,
Covenanting Redivivus
by Reg Barrow (Joe Bell
[an independent, Baptist, and professing Reconstructionist] kicked Reg Barrow
off his email discussion group because the subjects of Divine Right
Presbyterianism and the Covenanted
Reformation were too hot
for him to handle. This is Barrow's final answer to Bell [which Bell censored
from his list]. No one, including Bell, has yet to attempt an answer. Barrow
answers many specific questions regarding the permanence of covenant
obligation, national Reformation, historical testimony and many other doctrines
which were prevalent during the period of the second Reformation. A wealth of
original [Reformation] texts are cited throughout and this spirited debate
should help to generate interest in many of those biblical attainments which
were won during those glorious days in which major nations openly covenanted
themselves [as moral persons] to Christ.)

The Absurdity and Perfidy of
All Authoritative Toleration of Gross Heresy, Blasphemy, Idolatry, Popery, in
Britain (1797, 1803 edition)
The sub-title reads: "In two letters to a friend in which the doctrine of
the Westminster Confession of Faith relative to Toleration of a False Religion,
and the power of the civil magistrate about sacred matters; and the nature,
origin, ends and obligation of the National Covenant and Solemn League are
candidly represented and defended." Here Brown deals with three major
Reformation attainments (anti-tolerationism, establishmentarianism and the
obligations of lawful covenants as they biblically bind posterity) that Satan
has always been especially concerned to overthrow -- in every major demonic
move to open the floodgates of lawlessness, anarchy and misrule. Fletcher, in
the preface to the 1797 edition, relates this truth as it comes to bear on
various religious professors, stating, "Papists were enemies to our
covenants because they were a standard lifted up against their system of
abominable idolatries. Episcopalians were enemies to them, because they were a
standard lifted up against their anti-scriptural church-officers and inventions
of men in the worship of God. Some Presbyterians are enemies to them in our day
through ignorance of their nature and ends; and others through fear of being
too strictly bound to their duty" (Cited in Johnston, Treasury of the
Scottish Covenant, p.
486). It is also interesting to note the long list of backsliders and heretics
that often oppose one or more of these points. "The ancient Donatists, a
sect of Arian separatists, who appeared about the beginning of the 4th Century,
seem to have been among the first who held out these opinions to the Christian
world. Feeling the weight of the arm of power for their schismatical practices,
by way of reprisal, they stript the magistrate of all power in religion;--maintaining
that he had no more power about religious matters than any private person, and
refusing him the right of suppressing the propagators of doctrines different
from those professed by the Church, or the observers of a different form of
worship. From them the German Anabaptists adopted the same views. Then the
Socinians (i.e. an early form of Scripture-denying liberals--RB) and
remonstrant Arminians, whenever the magistrate ceased to patronize their cause.
The English Independents during the time of the Long Parliament were the
zealous supporters of the same opinions. In their rage for liberty of
conscience, they formed the strongest opposition in the Westminster Assembly
which the Presbyterians had to encounter. Through their influence that
venerable body was much embarrassed (hindered-- RB) in their proceeding; and by
their means (in collusion with that "Judas of the Covenant,"
Cromwell--RB), certain passages of the Confession of Faith never obtained the
ratification of the English Parliament. The English Dissenters of the present
age are generally in the same views, especially the Socinians, the Arians, and
the Quakers, who have most to dread from the Laws of the Land against their
blasphemies. And who knows not that the high reputation of Mr. Locke as a Philosopher...
has given these opinions such an air of respectability, that many youth in the
Universities have been thereby inclined to embrace them?" (Preface, pp.
vi-vii). In our day the tree of toleration (and the anti-Scriptural principles
which logically grow out of it) has spread its branches in ways that could have
never been envisioned by those that took the first steps away from biblical and
covenanted uniformity. What Brown is fighting against here is an error so
foundational that when left unchecked it permeates all of society, cutting out
the foundational roots that are necessary for all national Reformations. And
"if the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?" (Ps.
11:3). Furthermore, as the preface notes "liberty of conscience and of
opinion" are "the great idols of the day." Here Brown takes out
his covenantal hammer and smashes these idols with an inconoclastic zeal worthy
of our earlier Reformed forefathers. This book is especially useful in
answering the persistent fear and questions that always arise when these old
Reformed views are discussed: that is, the questions dealing with religious
persecution. Brown spends much time in clearing the Westminster Divines of such
false charges, while also setting these controversial Reformed teachings on a
thoroughly biblical foundation. Interestingly, in the section defending the
continuing obligation of the National and Solemn League and Covenant, we also
note that the Westminster Assembly considered the Solemn League and Covenant an
"everlasting covenant." Brown cites the following as proof,
"That the body of the English nation also swore the Solemn League and
Covenant, is manifest. The Westminster Assembly and English Parliament, affirm,
'The honourable house of Parliament, the Assembly of Divines, the renowned city
of London, and multitudes of other persons of all ranks and quality in this
nation, and the whole body of Scotland, have all sworn it, rejoicing at the
oath so graciously seconded from heaven. God will, doubtless, stand by all
those, who with singleness of heart shall now enter into an everlasting
covenant with the
Lord'" (p. 161, emphasis added). The footnote tells us that the section
Brown was quoting was taken from "Exhortation to take the Covenant,
February, 1644." Brown also includes a helpful section on a point some
modern day malignants are once again attempting to use to overthrow the
biblical attainments of the covenanted Reformation. This section shows that the
"(t)he intrinsic obligation of promises, oaths, vows, and covenants
which constitutes their very essence or essential form, is totally and
manifestly distinct from the obligation of the law of God in many
respects" (p. 120,
emphasis added). Finally, we cite a portion of Brown's dying testimony to his children given in the
introduction (p. xix). Such testimonies, from notable Christian leaders, often
contain singularly pertinent charges to their hearers. (For another notable
example of this see James Renwick's dying testimony, as he was about to be
martyred for his adherence to the Solemn League and Covenant, when he recounts
what was later to become most of the terms of communion in Covenanted
Presbyterian churches. This testimony can be found in Thompson's A Cloud of
Witnesses for the Royal Prerogatives of Jesus Christ Being the Last Speeches
and Testimonies of those Who Have Suffered for the Truth in Scotland Since...
1680). Here are Brown's
dying words to his children: "'Adhere constantly, cordially and honestly
to the Covenanted Principles of the Church of Scotland, and to that Testimony
which hath been lifted up for them. I fear a generation is rising up which will
endeavour silently,' (O how prophetic!) 'to let slip these matters, as if they
were ashamed to hold them fast, or even to speak of them (as with many
"reformed" publishers and preachers today, who dare not touch the
topics Brown deals with in this book--RB). May the Lord forbid that any of you
should ever enter into this confederacy against Jesus Christ and his cause!
This from a dying father and minister, and a witness for Christ' (Signed) 'John
Brown.'" If you have the courage to compare the original Reformed faith
with that which is often promoted under its name today (and in many ways the
old Reformed faith bears little resemblance to the "new light"
Reformers and innovators of our day), then this is an ideal book to obtain and
study. 213 pages.

Observations on the Public
Covenants Between God and the Church (1799)
Greg Barrow calls this "one of the best books on covenanting." It
contains general observations on God's covenantal relationship with His bride
(the church) and makes a number of practical inferences related to covenants
and covenanting. Mason is careful to clearly state that "(i)f any actions
cannot be traced up to the precepts of God's word, or to the approved examples
recorded in the Scripture, as their warrant, they are reprobate silver, and
must not have a place in the church's bond to obedience; but whatever actions
are agreeable to his law, these may and ought to have a place, either in
general or in the detail, within the church's covenant engagements" (p.
63). He also delineates between God's testimony (in His Word) and the testimony
of the church for the truths contained in God's Word. Additionally, he notes
that, "(t)he church's testimony must comprehend her public declaration
both for the things of God, and against those things which are opposite
thereunto"(p. 103). It has often been pointed out that it is particularly
this testimony against the specific sins of the day that stirs the dragon
(through both civil and ecclesiastical antichrist and other misguided
"independents") to persecute the "woman in the wilderness."
Satan has always shown a special hatred for those who seek to keep -- by God's
grace -- their covenant obligations pure and entire. Moreover, Mason
demonstrates that when present covenant obligations, which have long been
ignored or forgotten are once again brought to public notice, a familiar
pattern (experienced by all the saints) of false accusations and worse are
stirred up by the Devil, in opposition to covenant renewal. But, in spite of
the rage of the wicked one against the ordinance of covenanting (whether through
"open enemies or professed friends of this divine ordinance") Christ
will most certainly have the victory, in our day and in that which is to come.
This book should be especially encouraging to the remnant of contemporary
Covenanters (in our day of gross corporate declension from covenanted
Reformation attainments and the open highhanded sin of national
covenant-breaking), for as Mason points out, God "will not finally cast
off a covenanted people; but will remember mercy for them, deliver them from their
low estate, and restore them to the enjoyment of his special goodness as their
covenant God" (p. 84). 104 pages in length, this item is also included in
Mason's larger book The Fall of Babylon the Great, by the Agency of Christ,
and Through the Instrumentality of His Witnesses: In Four Discourses).

"These
Puritan resources are the greatest I've ever seen. These eyes have never seen anything
greater than what you have produced except that old King James Bible" (Email from a Customer in Georgia, USA).
Some
Additional Customer Comments on SWRB's CD sets (Reformation, Calvinism,
Protestant, Puritan).
"This collection
of… CDs is a truly astounding accomplishment. There is nothing like this
available to the ordinary Christian on the whole face of the earth. Now, for the first
time ever, ordinary Christians can have direct and near effortless access to the
very cream of Puritan and Reformed, as well as Covenanter, literature... What they used
to say of the Puritan John Flavel's preaching, can be said of these CDs: they
are 'hissing hot'! ... more" (emphases added).

"The
purchase of (SWRB's) CD's is proving to be one of the wisest investments that I
have ever made.
They are much more than I expected!! I am having a wonderful time reading and
studying."

"The
greatest collection of classic Reformation resources on one CD set ever!"
"In
reading this mornings mailing I noticed that you also do the Reformation
Bookshelf CD's so I went to your web site to see what was out -- I was in
ecstasy!!!"

Full
SWRB CD comment from Dr. McMahon:
"I
have been systematically working through reading the Puritan and 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 in one package to date.
In
my opinion, it far surpasses Ages Software and their collections.*
The
Puritan and Reformed material presented on these CDs is exceptional.
I
am continually amazed at the depth and breadth of information in both
collections, and the rarity of works that I now have at my fingertips.
You
have done an immeasurable service for the Kingdom of Christ in making these CDs
available, and every pastor and theologian should own them without question
(they would be foolhardy to pass them by)."

* It is SWRB's
opinion that Ages has done an excellent job in making various Reformed works
available on CD, so much so that we also distribute a number of their CDs at
discounts. Thus, please don't make more out of our publishing this comment than
is warranted, as this is a comment we received from one of our customers and it
expresses his opinion. As for Ages' work, we rejoice whenever the truth is
published, whether through others or through SWRB (as we play only a very small
part in the revival of classic Reformation, Puritan and Covenanter thought that
is now taking place worldwide through God's marvelous grace). The publication
of the best Reformers and Puritans of the past is one of the greatest needs of
our time, as this extends the blessings that come through faithful preachers
and authors into our day and into the future. Lord willing, the growth in the
publishing of faithful works from the past will help stem the tide of the great
declension and unfaithfulness which we are now witnessing all around us, even
(sadly) among many churches that still call themselves "Presbyterian"
and/or "Reformed." So please pray together with us that our Lord will
multiple the number of faithful publishers and publications, and that He will
give many the heart to stand for the truth no matter the consequences (as He
has done for our faithful forefathers, who resisted Satan and sin unto blood
and even to martyrdom in many cases). -- RB.
"SWRB's
Puritan and Reformation CD libraries are an invaluable source for the study of
the history and theology of classic Reformation theology. The collection is remarkable
not only for depth of content, but also for the rarity of many of the works.
Most seminary libraries will not have even a percentage of the works available
on these CD-ROMs. I cannot imagine anyone working in Reformation /
historical theology that would not want to use the Puritan and Reformed
libraries!"

"I
just received your CD collection. One bit of advice: you should instruct your
customers to take about 1 week off just to peruse the tables of contents for
these CD's, followed by another week off, in order to recover from the
state of shock in which they will find themselves.
In
all seriousness, this collection is almost impossible to describe. It has to be
seen to be believed. As a pastor, my library has just increased
dramatically.
As a Ph.D. student in Puritan and Post-Reformation studies, I have immediate
access to many of the same works for which I would normally need to access
through rare book rooms of theological libraries.
Thank
you for this labor of love. Thank you for making it accessible, both
financially and technologically. May the Lord richly bless you for this service
to his people."

"You
all are doing a wonderful service by making all these materials so readily
available. Having them on my hard drive is BETTER than having access to a
rare book library with all of them in hand... I have found the CD set
invaluable as a tool of scholarship. So once again I commend you brothers for making
it available."

"It's
been several weeks now since I received the CDs and have had some time to
digest some of them. All I can say is, "WOW!" This is truly a
library like no other, and has already paid great dividends not only in my own
personal worship and study, but in my teaching as well. I first balked at the
price, but after seeing the vastness of the material, I almost feel as though
I'm robbing you!
I
pray that the Lord will allow you to get these materials into the hands of as
many ministers as possible."

Full
SWRB CD comment from Dr. Moore:
This
collection of 62 CDs is a truly astounding accomplishment. There is nothing
like this available to the ordinary Christian on the whole face of the earth.
Now,
for the first time ever, ordinary Christians can have direct and near
effortless access to the very cream of Puritan and Reformed, as well as
Covenanter, literature.
These
books are often in fascinating first editions and many are electronically
linked and indexed for the first time. The ordinary Christian may here dig
into a simply staggering wealth of literature, from devotional and sermonic
material to technical and scholarly works. Even in the days of the Long Reformation
itself ordinary Christians didn't get to see this kind of library -- most
couldn't read for a start, and even those who could, would never have been able
to afford to buy even a hundredth part of the material on these CDs. Truly we
are without excuse!
And
the significance of this collection goes even beyond that. No longer do we have
to wait for modern Reformed publishing houses to predict that a particular
Reformation or Puritan book will be sufficiently popular to make it economical
to reprint, or to deem it "safe" enough to be let loose on the modern
evangelical church. Rather, we are now able to see for ourselves the whole
range of the Puritan and Reformed publishing enterprise, including views that
are usually suppressed by most modern devotees of "Puritan" piety!
Buy
these CDs while you can, and find out for yourself what the First and Second
Reformations were really all about! You'll be truly amazed, and, by God's
grace, will grow from being an ordinary Christian to being an extraordinary
one. What they used to say of the Puritan John Flavel's preaching, can be
said of these CDs: they are "hissing hot"!

"This
side of eternity I'll never be able to repay the favor you have done mankind by
bringing these... CDs together.
The
first week of reading I grew more as a Christian reading those rich, pure
Gospel Commentators than I have in 18 years of Christian life. After reading some of
the Puritan CDs I have to get the Reformation set if it kills me. A fire is
burning within me. These... CDs are liable to start a revival fire unseen in
any generation... the Gospel in its pure form is seen in these... CDs.
Sir,
I cant say enough. What a treasure! I'll never be able to repay you this side
of heaven, but when we get there I am sure you will see the rich fruits of your
labor. God bless you for not being money hungry but wanting to see Christians
grow in the Lord... I love you even though we have never met, you have
helped me in my Christian walk tremendously with these... CDs.
I
am not bragging on the flesh, I am just giving honor where honor is due. The
Holy Ghost will take these CDs and light a fire unseen and unheard of. God
bless you all at Still Waters."

Email from the USA
"Thank
you so very much for the CDs.
I am amazed at the quality and quantity of
the literature...
I
cannot imagine any other single thing being done by any man or group of men in
the earth today that is of such extensive, present, and enduring value as
this CD work is.
God
be praised that he uses sickly and weak men to forward his kingdom, that the
work may not be mistaken to be wrought by the might of men, but by his Spirit.
His strength is perfected in weakness."
