I am one who will be waiting, along with you, to see if the WCF still holds that position—naming the Pope the “Anti-Christ”.

Earlier, I read that in Presbyterian bodies,”only the officers have to subscribe to the Westminister standards”.

If that is truly the case, then at least the officers may agree and not deny the belief that the Pope is the Anti-Christ. As I have previously posted, this position has been posted more than once on these forums and, when posted, was not denied or repudiated.

It may be difficult to understand (though I don’t see why) that Catholics should be more than merely concerned to read that their spiritual leader is named Anti-Christ.

It also appears to me that such is the teaching of men and not to be found in the Scriptures.

ROE, it's been previously denied and repudiated. Both PAR35 and I have addressed your earlier questions re the same, but if you still don't believe the answer given, you can always read ahead, since I'm posting the entire Confession (reformatted for FR) from the same URL for every chapter.

So why do proabortion Catholic politicians take the Eucharist? If I were a Catholic, I'd find that much more disturbing than searching for a boogeyman in other confessions.
