Nor is that my intention (to pit one against another). But what Van Dixhoorn noted does help to explain why at least the Westminster Divines thought that Calvin's Catechism or the Heidelberg Catechism was not sufficient.
The heart of Calvin's theology is certainly present in the 3FU and Westminster Standards, of that there is no question.
