Belhar Confession Series

The Christian Reformed Church is currently considering the addition of a new confession to stand beside the Belgic Confession, the Canons of Dordt and the Heidelberg Catechism.  This confession is called The Belhar Confession. Since the CRC Synod of 2009 will be considering adoption of this confession, the churches of the denomination have been asked to study and respond to The Belhar Confession.

Belhar Briefing February, 2009
A significant increase in the discussion of the Belhar Confession will begin during the spring meetings of the various classis of the CRC and RCA.  Classis Pacific Northwest is hosting an open presentation by Dr. David Rylaarsdam, Associate Professor of Historical Theology at Calvin College on Wednesday evening March 11 (7:30 pm, Second Lynden CRC).  We encourage you to attend that discussion.
