Same in Substance, Different in Expression

There are modern claims made by some Calvinistic Baptists that the theology of the First and Second London Baptist Confessions of Faith differs in substance from one another, particularly regarding each Confession's view of the perpetuity of the Ten Commandments. But these claims are assertions with no historical warrant. The framers of the Second London Baptist Confession themselves claimed in the most sober terms that, while the two Confessions were different in expression, they were identical in substance. We examine these claims in this message.
