Views On Pope
The Confession of Faith taught the typical Protestant view of the time that the Pope is antichrist.
26.4. The Lord Jesus Christ is the Head of the church, in whom, by the appointment of the Father, all power for the calling, institution, order or government of the church, is invested in a supreme and sovereign manner; neither can the Pope of Rome in any sense be head thereof, but is that antichrist, that man of sin, and son of perdition, that exalteth himself in the church against Christ.Read more about this topic: 1689 Baptist Confession Of Faith
