I am concerned about WCF #9.. It states:

Westminster Confession of Faith
Chapter 9

IV. God did, from all eternity, decree to justify all the elect,[11] and Christ did, in the fullness of time, die for their sins, and rise again for their justification:[12] nevertheless, they are not justified, until the Holy Spirit doth, in due time, actually apply Christ unto them.[13]

How could they come up with such error as this? Justification at the point of regeneration or faith? WOW
The WCF is biblically correct in its teaching on justification; no error there whatsoever. The decree to justify, the atonement which secured justification and the APPLICATION of all that the atonement secured unto justification are inseparable but mutually exclusive, i.e., they are not synonymous but rather different elements of the whole of God's salvation of the elect.

I would highly recommend you read John Murray's most excellent book, Redemption, Accomplished and Applied.

A couple of articles here on The Highway that deal with a couple of these issues are:

1) Eternal Justification by Louis Berkhof
2) Justification by Faith Alone (The Relation of Faith to Justification by Dr. Joel Beeke

No, you aren't reading the WFC wrongly, but rather, you have erred! [Linked Image]
