Authentic Christianity: An Exposition of the Theology and Ethics of the Larger Westminster Catechism

Description of Authentic Christianity: An Exposition of the Theology and Ethics of the Larger Westminster Catechism from the Vision Forum Site:

"Not since 1731 has the Reformed world seen a comprehensive commentary on its most detailed standard of faith, The Westminster Larger Catechism. Even that earlier two-volume masterpiece by Thomas Ridgeley does not rival the depth and breadth of this contribution to Reformed doctrine provided by Dr. Joseph C. Morecraft, III. Culminating a lifetime of learning, preaching, and pastoral care, this five-volume work incorporates the most stalwart of Reformed theology from recent centuries as well as past masters, and exegetes the teachings of the Catechism through potent insight, consistent application, and relentless recourse to God’s Word. In a time when the Church faces many doctrinal challenges, Morecraft’s Commentary calls her back to the foundations of the Reformed faith, directing her to the spiritual power of God’s Word as taught in the Larger Catechism. In a time when even the Reformed lose heart and begin to tinker and modify their understanding of their own standards, Morecraft’s Commentary directs us to a clear confession of faith. In these volumes, Authentic Christianity: An Exposition of the Theology and Ethics of the Westminster Larger Catechism we find relevant solutions to the challenges we face, and the power to transform individuals, families, and entire cultures today.

This 5-volume commentary on The Westminster Larger Catechism practically applies the doctrinal principles outlined in this great document to the ethical considerations of our day. The culmination of a lifetime of study and preaching, Dr. Morecraft’s magnum opus provides potent insights into the core doctrines of the faith as summarized in the Larger Catechism. This monumental achievement by one of the most heroic defenders of the faith alive today is a must for any serious student of theology.

Dr. Morecraft holds a B.A. in history from King’s College in Bristol, Tennessee, an M.Div from Columbia Theological Seminary in Decatur, Georgia, and a M.Th. and Th.D. from Whitefield Theological Seminary"
