He illuminates just how much change and diversity in thought, worship, government and culture these four hundred years have witnessed in the churches - far greater than has traditionally been supposed.

Book Synopsis Scottish Puritanism, 1590-1638 by : David George Mullan
Download or read book Scottish Puritanism, 1590-1638 written by David George Mullan and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2000-09-07 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scottish Puritanism, 1590-1638, is a portrait of Protestantism in the two generations leading to the National Covenant of 1638. This book investigates the construction of a puritan community embracing 'godly' ministers along with significant numbers of lay men and women willing to engage in the practice of a piety which confronted the inner person and the external world, seeking the reformation of both. Topics include attitudes towards the Bible and the sacraments, the nature of the Christian life, the place of the feminine in Scottish divinity, and the development of ideas about predestination, covenanting, and the relationship between church and state. The book addresses the tensions inherent in puritanism, such as those associated with the nature of the church and the extent of freedom, and provides a perspective on the relationship between Scottish and English religious developments.
Book Synopsis The Search for a Common Identity by : Brian R. Talbot
Download or read book The Search for a Common Identity written by Brian R. Talbot and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The Search for a Common Identity' explores the process by which Scottish Baptists came to recognize the need for a union of Baptist churches in Scotland prior to 1869. This book identifies the major leaders in each of the three main Baptist streams in the early nineteenth century and shows how they came to the conviction that it was important for them to establish a common identity. At the heart of their unity was an enthusiasm for evangelism. The Baptist Home Missionary Society was formed in 1827. Its early successes demonstrated the wisdom of cooperation between the different Baptist agencies in Scotland. There had been three attempts to form a union of churches that failed because differences of perspective could not be reconciled. The principal achievement of the 1869 Baptist Union was in enabling Baptists with different theological opinions to come together to promote common practical objectives. In short, a shared sense of purpose led to the growth and establishment of the Baptist Union of Scotland.
Book Synopsis Defending the Revolution by : Jeffrey Stephen
Download or read book Defending the Revolution written by Jeffrey Stephen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 'Glorious Revolution' of 1688-90 played a fundamental role in re-shaping the political, religious and cultural map of the British Isles. Yet, as this book demonstrates, many key elements of the history of the period between the landing of William of Orange and the establishment of the Union between Scotland and England, remain shadowy. In particular, the religious and theological underpinnings of the Revolution in Scotland have received scant attention compared to discussions of events in England, and Ireland. This book sets out to show how the religious dimension of the revolution settlement in Scotland while comprehensively Presbyterian, was not inevitable, revealing instead the degree of political and religious pressure that was brought to bear in order to press for a moderate settlement that took cognizance of the Episcopalian position. However, the outcome demonstrated the ability of Presbyterians to respond to the changing political circumstances and seize the opportunities they offered, enabling them to galvanise their support within parliament and secure a settlement that went beyond what William and Erastian-inclined Presbyterians would have preferred. Traditionally, treatment of the religious outcome in Scotland has been restricted to a bare narration of the significant acts of parliament - this book takes a more thorough and critical approach to explain not only the nature of the final settlement but how it was achieved, and the legacy it left for both Scotland and the newly forged British state.
Book Synopsis Virtue, Learning and the Scottish Enlightenment by : David Allan
Download or read book Virtue, Learning and the Scottish Enlightenment written by David Allan and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a reassessment of the moral and theological foundations of modern Europe. It challenges a number of deeply rooted assumptions about the basis of both Scottish culture and of Enlightenments in general. It argues that the formidable dual influences of humanism and Calvinism forced a discussion about the essentially moral function of scholarship and learning to the very centre of intellectual debate in early modern Scotland, and that this in turn led to the growth of an "e;enlightened"e; community amongst the Scottish literati. As such, the text is a direct challenge to conventional accounts of the Scottish Enlightenment as an unanticipated, short-lived explosion of ideas.
Book Synopsis Nevile Davidson by : Andrew G. Ralston
Download or read book Nevile Davidson written by Andrew G. Ralston and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-09-25 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rev. Dr. A. Nevile Davidson (1899-1976), minister of Glasgow Cathedral for over thirty years, was one of the most distinguished Scottish churchmen of the twentieth century. A living embodiment of the idea of "a broad churchman," he was both a representative of the high church "Scoto-Catholic" tradition and a key supporter of Billy Graham's 1955 evangelistic campaign. Throughout most of his life he kept a detailed diary and for the first time, in this book, this rich source of material is drawn upon, in addition to the reminiscences of those who knew him, giving a unique insight into the man behind the dignified public persona. Nevile Davidson: A Life to be Lived not only paints a portrait of a historically significant figure but reveals him to be a man of vision who was constantly thinking of innovative ways to communicate the church's message to ordinary people and who worked tirelessly for ecumenical cooperation. As such, Nevile Davidson has much to say that is relevant to our own time.
Book Synopsis Scottish Federalism and Covenantalism in Transition by : Stephen G Myers
Download or read book Scottish Federalism and Covenantalism in Transition written by Stephen G Myers and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2016-09-29 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How freely can salvation be offered to people? How do Law and Grace find balance? What influence does federal theology have on the overall theological enterprise? How does a confessional church interact with both the civil government and other religious communions? These are the questions roiling the twenty-first-century church; these were the questions threatening to splinter the Scottish church in the early eighteenth century. In those earlier days of mounting theological confrontation withinthe Scottish church, Ebenezer Erskine - a parish minister renowned for his evangelistic zeal - had a major role to play. Through this examination of the theology and ministry of Erskine, one therefore gains not only a deeper understanding of a man critically important within Presbyterian history, but also insight into the pressing theological disputes of the day. By analysing Erskine's contributions to ongoing theological discussion, greater clarity is gained on the development of federal theology; on the root causes of the Marrow controversy; and on the challenges involved as increasing religious diversity penetrated lands once dominated by national churches. In these areas and more, Erskine serves both to illuminate an obscure era and torefine modern understandings of still controversial theological issues.
