| Σύνοψη: | The London Baptist Confessions of 1644/1646 have identical articles denying that a sinner can be prepared to receive the grace of God for conversion. These articles deny that the 'terrors' of the Law of Moses should be used and that a person should come to Christ as a 'naked soul'. But these same articles also state that those who are converted come to Christ as those who are 'sinners and ungodly'. But if the Law of Moses is not a means of preparation, how do sinners know themselves to be sinners? This paper explores the tensions within these confessions and its anti-preparation doctrine. |
