Samuel Rutherford commissioned the Westminster Assembly. Here he criticizes “pretended liberty of conscience”. In the parable of Lazarus (Luke 16), the rich man who feasted in front of the starving, then suffered a thirsty tongue. Christ would have been an imperfect prophet if he’d failed to warn us of such a “doom”.
How many fans of the teachings of Westminster would sit still for such warnings?
How can you respond to the Lazaruses at your gate?
