On a serious note; the Westminster divines understood the central message - God created - but what they missed was the literary means by which God tells us this. This was not their fault, just one of those things.
Actually, all joking aside, I am not "happy" to deny that point, I have wrestled with it for years, but am not presently convinced I could swear to that in good conscience. Therefore, for the sake of integrity, I must take an exception.
