A quick definition of Westminster Confession of Faith:

The Westminster Confession of Faith is a document that explains what the Presbyterian Church believes. It was created by a group of religious leaders from Britain and other parts of Europe in 1643. The Scottish Presbyterian Church adopted it as their basis for belief. It is sometimes called the Westminster Confession for short.

A more thorough explanation:

The Westminster Confession of Faith is a document that outlines the religious beliefs of the Presbyterian Church. It was created in 1643 by a group of Protestant divines from Britain and the continent who met at Westminster. The document was later adopted by the General Assembly of the Kirk of Scotland and the Scottish Parliament, making it the basis of the Scottish Presbyterian Church.

The Westminster Confession of Faith is an important document for Presbyterians because it helps to define their beliefs and practices. It covers a wide range of topics, including God, the Bible, salvation, and the church. By following the teachings of the Westminster Confession of Faith, Presbyterians believe that they are staying true to the teachings of the Bible.

For example, the Westminster Confession of Faith teaches that God is sovereign and in control of all things. This means that everything that happens in the world is part of God's plan, even if we don't always understand it. Presbyterians believe that this is an important part of their faith because it helps them to trust in God even when things are difficult.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)

Give it 4 more weeks at least. Everyone in this chat needs to wait longer.
