摘要:This article analyzes the conception of Education in the Westminster Confession of Faith, document written in Westminster Abbey, in England, in 1647. The text was prepared by Calvinist theologians and served as doctrinal and confessional manual of the Reformed Church. The confessions of faith are typical of Modernity in Western Europe and appeared in a context of the rising of the modern states and the new Christian churches, which were directly related to the processes of confessionalization lived by the Christian religion in Western Europe in the 16th and 17th centuries. It’s a document widely used by the churches of Calvinist orientation, and their educational proposals, pedagogical strategies and conception of education had wide influence in the regions where it was used.
