The Creeds and Platforms of Congregationalism

The Creeds And Platforms Of Congregationalism is a book written by Williston Walker in 1893. It is a comprehensive study of the history and development of Congregationalism, a Protestant Christian denomination that emphasizes the autonomy of individual churches and the priesthood of all believers. The book examines the various creeds and platforms that have been adopted by Congregational churches over the centuries, including the Cambridge Platform of 1648, the Saybrook Platform of 1708, and the New Hampshire Confession of Faith of 1833. It also explores the theological and ecclesiastical controversies that have shaped the denomination, such as the debates over predestination, revivalism, and slavery. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of religious history, as well as for members of the Congregational Church seeking a deeper understanding of their faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
