An explication of the Shorter catechism, composed by the Assembly of Divines, commonly called, the Westminster Assembly. Wherein the several questions and answers of the said Shorter catechism, are resolved, divided, and taken apart into several under-questions and answers; in order to render the whole more plain and easy to be understood, not only by the young arising generation, but also, by the more weak and ignorant, of more advanced years; that they all may be helped forward in their growth in knowledge, and acquaintance with the doctrines of faith, and principles of our holy Protestant reformed Christian religion. By John Thomson, M.A. & V.D.M. in the County of Amelia. [Seven lines of Scripture texts]
