Doctrinal Integrity: The Utility and
Importance of Creeds and Confessions and Adherence to Our Doctrinal Standards by Samuel Miller
The Biblical and Logical Necessity of
Uninspired Creeds
by Larry Birger, Jr. (A
humorous and instructive dialogue between Hans [a paleopresbyterian] and Franz
[a neopresbyterian], demonstrating the absolute necessity of uninspired creeds.
Hans shows Franz that Franz's rejection of uninspired creeds is itself an
uninspired creed.)
Of Uniformity In Religion, Worship of
God, and Church Government
by George Gillespie
The Covenanted Reformation Defended
Against Contemporary Schismatics
by Greg Barrow (Greg Price, Reg Barrow and Larry Birger) Contains some of the most useful information
you will find on the original intent of the Westminster Confession of Faith and
how this impacts modern churches. This book, of over 300 [8.5" X 11"]
pages, is also offered as a cerlox bound photocopy [$14.98 US funds] or a
Hardcover photocopy [$25.00 US funds].)
International Covenanted Reformation
or Schism? (A Reply to Doug Wilson) by Reg Barrow
The Canterbury Tales by Kevin Reed
(Refutes James Jordan and others who reject the regulative principle of
worship.)
An Open Letter to an RPCNA Elder by Jim Dodson
Dodson Versus the RPCNA -- concerning
his "Open Letter to an RPCNA Elder" above by Jim Dodson
A Presbyterian Political Manifesto by Michael Wagner
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)
by Andrew Clarkson (The
table of contents contained in this file can serve as a kind of summary of
second Reformation thought concerning the church, state, separation, schism,
worship, civil dissent, church planting, opposition to idolatry and tyranny,
and much more!)
Back to the top of the page.
Why Creeds are a Biblical
Necessity
Proves how and why creeds are just as binding and necessary (when agreeable to the
Word of God) as preaching -- and that they are ultimately necessitated by
Scripture and truth itself. In fact, the statement, "I have no
creed," is itself a creed, and thus self refuting. Price cites a number of
classic Reformation arguments on this subject.
(Cassette) $2.98
The Reformed Confessions,
Heresy, Schism and the Faithful Remnant
This sermon demonstrates that the Apostle John, under the inspiration of the
Holy Spirit, made the truth of the Christian doctrine preached, published or
distributed the determining factor in the evaluation of the faithfulness of any
individual ministry. Price shows how doctrinal fidelity should also be our
prime consideration in deciding where to worship (i.e. in evaluating corporate
or denominational faithfulness), while exhibiting how the church will grow in
faithfulness and strength (as a body) when these Apostolic instructions are
followed. Additionally, Price delves deeply into the biblical teaching
concerning heresy (both of the destructive and damnable varieties), schism, and
the usefulness of the historical testimony of the church -- as found in her
major creeds and confessions. In this sermon Price gives some of the most
practical, specific guidelines you may find regarding what churches to attend,
or when and why to leave churches which promote heresy and schism (i.e.
teachings contrary to the biblical
confessions of the churches of the Reformed faith). Popular modern methods of
evaluating teachers are also shown to be unbiblical and destructive to the
visible church. Calvin, Gillespie and others make frequent
"appearances," tying this sermon directly into both the first and
second Reformations.

The Westminster Confession of
Faith
"The product of Puritan conflict," stated Shedd, reaching "a
perfection of statement never elsewhere achieved.""All that learning
the most profound and extensive, intellect the most acute and searching, and
piety the most sincere and earnest, could accomplish, was thus concentrated in
the Westminster Assembly's Confession of Faith, which may be safely termed the
most perfect statement of Systematic Theology ever framed by the Christian
Church," writes Hetherington in The History of the Westminster Assembly
of Divines (p. 345,
emphasis added). "These are worth an hundred victories on the battle
field. We do not fear to say of them that they are the finest transfusion into
uninspired language of the sublime, awful, blessed truths of the Word of God
which the Church has as yet been honored to make... Never can the Covenanters
be robbed of the immortal honor of having, while at the summit of their power,
published this great principle to the world" noted J.A. Wylie, in praise
of the Westminster Standards (cited in Johnston's Treasury of the Scottish
Covenant, p. 101).
Concerning the Shorter Catechism, which is one of the items also included in
this book, Mitchell, in his Westminster Assembly: Its History and Standards, notes: "...it is a thoroughly
Calvinistic and Puritan catechism, the ripest fruit of the Assembly's thought
and experience, maturing and finally fixing the definitions of theological
terms to which Puritanism for half a century had been leading up and gradually
coming closer and closer to in its legion of catechisms" (p. 431). The WCF
is the greatest of all the creeds of the Christian church. The church of Christ
cannot be creedless and live. Especially in an age of doubt and confusion, it
is her duty to define and proclaim the one true faith. Nowhere has the Reformed
church done this so effectively as in the Westminster family of documents. This
book represents Reformed thinking at its purest and best. It was intended, as
part of the covenanted reformation taking place during its compilation, to be
adopted as the binding confessional standard for every individual, family,
court, church, and legislature in the British Isles. Study it carefully and we
think that you will see why this same goal should be covenanted to by all
serious minded followers of the Lord Jesus Christ. This is the definitive
edition of the WCF and its many related documents. It contains Manton's
"Epistle to the Reader," the Larger Catechism, Shorter Catechism,
"The Sum of Saving Knowledge," "The National Covenant
(1638)," "The Solemn League and Covenant (1643),"
"Acknowledgment of Publick Sins and Breaches of the Covenant (1648),"
"The Directory for the Publick Worship of God (1645)," The Form of
Presbyterial Church Government (1645)," "The Directory for Family
Worship (1647)," an extensive index and more! "Every effort has been
made, by sparing no expense or labour... to render it the Standard
Edition," note the publishers. An essential book for every Christian home,
church, and state! Next to the Bible itself, no other book can furnish you
with as much necessary spiritual information. Related item: William Hetherington's History of the

"I
have been systematically working through reading the Puritan and Reformed CDs I

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

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

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."

"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."
