The third (and final) volume, covering chapters 23-33 of the Confession, treats the civil magistrate, marriage and divorce, the church and communion of the saints, baptism and the Lord's Supper, church government, and the final judgment and afterlife. Also included are indexes to the three volumes. - Publisher.
