Keach's Catechism

The confession which the catechism was based upon was later adopted by the Philadelphia Baptist Association in 1742 in America.

[1][2][3] It is interesting to note that various editions of this catechism contain different numbers of questions, some containing 114,[4] and some 118.

while the modified version gives, "Where is the obedience of faith given in summary form?"

This change may be theologically significant as the modified edition equates "obedience of faith" with what is commonly referred to as the moral law.

Because some theologians in Reformed Baptist circles have suggested that there are two stages of justification, the final stage of which is dependent on obedience to the moral law, this modification may represent a tendency toward the two-stage justification model.
