We are thrilled to announce that Reformed Christian Politics is now available. The book’s main thesis is that: Civil government must promote true religion. Written by three American Presbyterians (two ministers and a layman), the book outlines Reformed political theory in general, before guiding the reader through the doctrine of the civil magistrate in a specifically American context, with the American revisions to the Westminster Confession of Faith examined along with the writings of 18th- and 19th-century American Presbyterians. This volume addresses theonomy and how to handle the law of Moses in terms of politics, as well as giving a summary of Stephen Wolfe’s previous book, The Case for Christian Nationalism.

The Masoretic Text forms the basis of our cherished Old Testament, and we are all familiar with it to one degree or another. As part of the Word of God, it is worth defending. Many make the mistake of viewing the Masoretic Text with suspicion as they believe that the Hebrew therein is a corrupted production of rabbinic Judaism, which is anti-Christian in nature. Yet we ought not to be ashamed of Biblical Hebrew, or entertain false accusations of Judaizing. The Hebrew Old Testament is, after all, very much a Christian book, insofar as it was written by Christ, and prophesies of him throughout.
In this volume, Joseph Weissman proves that it is that the Hebrew Scripture that God breathed was not lost in time; rather, that God preserved it in the Masoretic Text and kept it pure throughout the ages: exactly as he promised in his Word.

At a time when the church is fragmented, and controversies abound, The Shorter Ecclesiastical Writings of Franciscus Junius assure us that the church is the body of Christ, and that as such, we much honor one another and so glorify the Lord. These previously untranslated writings include his Irenics, Ecclesiastics, A Singular Little Book on the Church, and Theses on the Church of God. Encouraging and refreshing, Jonathan Tomes’ translation is a valuable treasure for the church today.

Before he signed the Declaration of Independence, John Witherspoon was a thirty-year-old minister in the Church of Scotland. In 1753, he anonymously wrote this withering satire on the Moderate Party, then ascendant in the Presbyterian Church. Ecclesiastical Characteristics is a satirical manual, instructing Moderates how to trade the Confession of Faith for the polish of a fine gentleman. In it, Witherspoon condemns the Moderates in their own voice. It is an enjoyable yet sorrowful must-read in a day when churchmen are likewise tempted to follow the Moderates’ playbook.

In Domestical Duties, William Gouge exposits that part of Scripture wherein we find domestical duties set forth, namely: Ephesians 5:21-6:9. He goes on to detail the right way that husbands and wives should be joined together in marriage, and their mutual duties. Gouge then sets forth the particular duties of wives, husbands, children, parents, servants, and masters. With over 3,000 footnotes, including several fresh translations, this book is an excellent resource for pastors and laymen alike.

The goal of Berith Press is to republish some of the finest works of the First and Second Reformations, and so draw new readers into the old paths, forsaking them not. We seek to edify the church with the truth, and so assist pastors and laymen alike. In addition, we aim to provide resources to further reformation in our nation, in our churches, and in our families. At Berith Press, we provide the perfect blend between modern style and antiquarian substance. We modernize spelling and syntax of old works, while retaining Hebrew, Greek and Latin terms, as well as including copious footnotes. By joining some of the finest minds of the Protestant past with some of the keenest readers of the Protestant present, we hope to help the future of Protestantism shine brightly – and all by God’s grace and to his glory.
With a preface from Dr. Todd Ruddell of Whitefield Theological Seminary, these new volumes brought to print enable the Reformed world to access Francis Roberts’ work afresh – newly typeset for the first time in over 380 years, and edited only for readability. Original Hebrew, Greek and Latin phrases have been preserved. These volumes are set to be 6”x9” with a digital cloth cover, complete with a dust jacket as illustrated here.
Francis Roberts produced the most vast Reformed work ever brought to print on covenant theology. Quoting copiously from Calvin, Perkins, Augustine, and others, as well as regularly citing Scripture, Roberts’ volumes contain several thousand footnotes, which have been carefully and diligently placed into these volumes also.
Roberts divides the Covenant of Grace into two main phases: the Old Covenant being the Covenants of Promise, citing Ephesians 2:12, and the New Covenant being the Covenant of Performance, citing Luke 1:72. The Covenants of Promise are, in turn, sub-distinguished into six covenant “expressures”: firstly with Adam after the fall, secondly with Noah, thirdly with Abraham, fourthly with Moses, fifthly with David, and sixthly with the exiles in Babylon. In all these covenants, Christ was set forth in a promissory manner, and salvation was through faith in Christ alone.
Roberts deals with controversies such as whether the Mosaic Covenant was properly a Covenant of Works, whether the Noahic Covenant was merely a universal covenant with mankind, justification by faith as the condition of God’s Covenant, Christ as the formal party with whom God covenants (the church being covenanted as Christ’s body and seed), and also the nature of the Covenant of Works in Scripture – as well as dealing in depth with the Mosaic judicial, moral and ceremonial law, and how the law is and isn't applicable for us today.
Here is an overview of each volume within this set – the first three volumes are coming soon.
Volume 1: Covenant Theology in General; the Covenant of Works; the Covenant of Grace as Expressed unto Adam; the Covenant of Grace as Expressed unto Noah.
Volume 2: The Covenant of Grace as Expressed unto Abraham.
Volume 3: The Covenant of Grace as Expressed unto Moses.
Volume 4: The Covenant of Grace as Expressed unto David; the Covenant of Grace as Expressed unto the exiles in Babylon.
Volumes 5: The Covenant of Grace in its Performance by Jesus Christ, that is: the New Covenant.

In The Elements of Logic, Pierre Du Moulin explains the building blocks or “simple notions” in a man’s understanding, how these notions are used in argumentation, how arguments can be arranged into syllogisms, how one may use syllogisms to prove a point, and also explores various sorts of logical fallacies. This work is very useful for ministers, laypersons, and students alike.
