I remember a Reformed Minister that I used to be close with explaining some differences between the 3FU and the WCF. He said one for instance, the WCF teaches that assurance of faith is not the essence of faith, but rather is a reflex act of the believer. The Three Forms teach assurance of faith is the essence of faith. He said that this sounds like a minor issue but it has been argued quite persuasively that the Westminster view opened the door for the “second blessing” theology which developed later among some Protestants. So can someone explain these differences of Assurance more deeply to me please? And what is 2nd Blessing Theology?
