I’ve had a copy of this excellent work that was published by the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland for many, many years and have marked it up extensively and so, it is not in the best of shape. I inherited my brother’s copy and gave that one the same treatment. But then it went out of print. I looked up used copies but they mostly cost $100.00+! I don’t have that kind of money. I bought a Kindle version, but that is not the same thing as holding a copy in my hands. When I saw that it had finally been republished as a hardback I rejoiced. I bought a copy and found that it also contained the 1788 American revisions as an appendix along with larger and more easily read print! Definitely added plusses! I’m going to recommend each family in my church purchase a copy. And me? I look forward to marking up this new copy!

Thanks to Rev. Jason Burns I discovered Banner of Truth and I’m blessed that I have. This edition of the Westminster Confession of Faith is superbly done and the quality of workmanship cannot be flawed.

I recommend to all brethren faithful to the AV1611 to get this book. In this age of apostasy you need a doctrinally sound confession more than ever.

God bless.

What a joy to find this masterwork published with new formatting. This is the best edition of the Westminster Confession and related documents on the market. For years I’ve used the edition printed by the Orthodox Presbyterian Church, which in my opinion was the best hardcover edition. This edition is superior. First, it is printed by Versa Press, a American quality printer who also prints excellent editions for the Liberty Fund. Their craftsmanship and attention to detail are commendable: the font and layout are aesthetically pleasing and easy to read. Second, this edition is from 1857, eliminating modern many modernizing adjustments and getting closer to the original documents. Third, the book’s size is big enough to make it easy to read but small enough to not be too cumbersome. I appreciate these critical documents getting a fresh and well-though out reformatting. Anyone who reads the Westminster Confession should acquire this edition of it. Thanks Banner!

I simply love this whole volume. I love the Confession. But my old copy was hard to read, and not very attractive. I bought this have read it daily ever since. I found the other documents included interesting as well. Particularly the Public and Private Directories of Worship. Convicting and encouraging at the same time. If you are a confessional Christian, get this volume and keep it on your reading desk. It is attractive, easy to read, has all the Scripture references, and, well, its your confession too.
God Bless
