I Confess... My Ignorance of Westminster

This last week we quoted together from the WCF (Westminster Confession of Faith). Todd said he had to concentrate so hard on 'saying it right' that he couldn't reflect on what it was actually saying about God! So here it is, for all of us to ponder...

Westminster Confession of Faith, 2.2:

God hath all life, glory, goodness, blessedness, in and of himself; and is alone in and unto himself all-sufficient, not standing in need of any creatures which he hath made, nor deriving any glory from them, but only manifesting his own glory in, by, unto, and upon them; he is the alone foundation of all being, of whom, through whom, and to whom, are all things; and hath most sovereign dominion over them, to do by them, for them, or upon them, whatsoever himself pleaseth. In his sight all things are open and manifest; his knowledge is infinite, infallible, and independent upon the creature; so as nothing is to him contingent or uncertain. He is most holy in all his counsels, in all his works, and in all his commands. To him is due from angels and men, and every other creature, whatsoever worship, service, or obedience he is pleased to require of them.

More here if you like this sort of thing.

By the way, I repent: the photo above is actually of Westminster Abbey, whereas the one in last week's post was of the Parliament building. Correction noted by Gavin, venerable world traveler. He went to London with Grandma just last month and visited all these places. So I've never been to London, OK?
