I am currently listening to a lecture on the Belgic Confession by my friend, the Revd Angus Stewart. This first lecture is an introduction concerning the historical background of the Belgic Confession and discusses its reception by John Calvin et al. One point around the 26 minute mark struck me as interesting. The Revd Stewart notes that the Belgic Confession names Paul as the author of the letter to the Hebrews, but he argues that this statement is not part of the doctrine of the Confession. He also claims that Calvin agreed with the doctrine of the Belgic Confession, but that Calvin did not concur that Paul wrote the book of Hebrews.
