The main confessions on the Last Judgment?Yes I do find it odd. How could I find where in the confessions it talks of this?
I'm led to believe that it wouldn't be heresy but rather a wrong understanding of scripture?
I was wondering on the intention of your investigation, but this goes beyond Reformed theology to orthodoxy; see Apostles CreedI'll take a look. Thanks.
I wonder if the 39 articles are as Reformed as the WCF?

What confession does he hold onto?I'm a learner. A minister and I respectfully debate/talk about 'Protestant/Reformed Theology.
He said he is partial preterist and believes Revelation 20: 11-15 has either past or is present. Not future.
So I'm exploring it.
I need to ask him more questions. He did say this morning that his church holds to the church of England 39 articles of religion.What confession does he hold onto?
The logical question is that the framers of the article obviously did not see the last day as being past or present in their day. Thus, what has changed since then that we can say the last day is now past or present.Maybe ask your friend to comment on Article 4 (of the Thirty-Nine Articles).
Of the Resurrection of Christ.
Christ did truly rise again from death, and took again his body, with flesh, bones, and all things appertaining to the perfection of Man's nature; wherewith he ascended into Heaven, and there sitteth, until he return to judge all Men at the last day.
I certainly will.Maybe ask your friend to comment on Article 4 (of the Thirty-Nine Articles).

How does the Reformed faith define or determine whether something is heresy?
I certainly will.
I also want to ask my friend when he thinks those verses came to pass. He said all of Revelation has past. Although still believes a bodily resurrection and second advent is still to happen.
I'm sure someone else on pb said this wasn't heresy.
How does the Reformed faith define or determine whether something is heresy?
You may want to ask your friend to clarify. It's quite common in Reformed circles to hold that Rev 20:1-6 is past/present, but that 20:11-15 is future. Perhaps that's his position.How common in the Reformed faith would the belief that Revelation 20: 11-15 has already happened or is taking place now?
