How to Learn Reformed Theology for Free - Feedback

[TheInquirer]

Hi all,

I put up a page on "How to Learn Reformed Theology for Free" on a site I recently launched:

https://www.4elect.com/learn-reformed-theology-for-free/

What I am trying to do is offer people of various knowledge about Reformed Theology to go deeper - from someone who knows next to nothing to someone who wants to study in-depth.

I am currently only looking for free resources for this particular page.

If you have any suggestions on how to improve, or great free resources to add, I would love to hear it.

Thanks in advance.

Jim, I think this is great! We totally need more materials to build up those coming into Reformed Theology. Thank you for putting the time into making this.

Please add the creeds and also more confessions - especially the Canons of Dort, the 2nd Helvetic Confession and 39 Articles. These are a must and included among the most common Reformed confessions. Also please list the original WCF and BC, not just the USA versions where sections are deleted. Under #7 and the RPW, please list the Directory for Worship (Public and Family). Link for all the info here:

Adding a section called Bible Commentaries would probably be super helpful. Here, please link Calvin's Commentaries, Matthew Henry and John Gill - all free. Matthew Poole is also free and brief. The Geneva Bible on BibleGateway has the notes which are helpful.

Travis' website is super helpful: https://reformedbooksonline.com/
David's website is great and has hard to understand Bible verses explained too: http://commongracedebate.blogspot.com/2016/12/scripture-index-of-common-grace-texts.html

I would like to suggest perhaps a website style with a left column where topics can be selected, rather than a blog-ish style that focuses on the last post. This will make it easier for readers to find information on the topic they are looking for.

Thanks for the feedback and encouragement psychieves. Once the site gets more content, the navigation will change quite a bit. It is brand new and only has about 30 pages so far.

I skipped the 2nd Helvetic Confession since it seemed like from the info I gathered it wasn't in very wide use today. I tried to stick with the most popular statements currently in use and not overwhelm readers with every possible historical example to chase down. I am not trying to go for comprehensiveness but "best of" representative examples for each section. Canons of Dordt would be a good add. I will also add links to the original versions of the confessions you mentioned.

Unless I am mistaken, I think the Second Helvetic Confession is one of the most widely used and recognized Reformed confessions across Europe.

Thanks Taylor, I'll add it. Wasn't aware of that.
