Introducing the Belgic Confession
The Belgic confession is like a roadmap pointing out the essential features of biblical geography to help us on our way. And it is more like a digital map than an old paper one; it invites us to keep zooming in by opening our Bibles and finding in it treasures new and old.
A God Worth Trusting {Belgic Confession, Article 1}
Idolatry is the entertainment of thoughts about God that are unworthy of him. True religion requires repenting of idolatry and thinking rightly about God.
How Can I Know God {Belgic Confession, Article 2}
We can’t know everything that God is. But through general and special revelation we can know enough to trust and obey.
What Is the Bible? { Belgic Confession, Article 3}
What kind of book is the Bible? Is it merely an ancient document written by men inventing a religion? Is it like our Constitution, a useful guide that can be amended when needed? Is it special like other great writings that reveal the human condition and help us see divinity in the world?
What Is the Bible About? {Belgic Confession, Article 4}
From Genesis to Revelation the Bible is a cohesive story written by dozens of human authors over hundreds of years. The sum of the story in a single word is redemption. What is corrupted by sin can be restored in Christ.
Why Should I Believe The Bible? {Belgic Confession, Article 5}
It is appropriate to have questions about Scripture. So ask them. Read the Bible expecting God to help you believe and do what he says.
