Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Wise's appraisal of church governance in Massachusetts during the early 1700s offers deep insight into the religious and political thinking of the era. Wise sought to evaluate how and whether the churches of New England conformed to the principles set out by the English royal charter of 1630. Since the entire communities were built from scratch as colonies, with most colonists being avowedly Christian, the role of the church was central to daily life. As the generations passed the growth of the settlements, in size and population, altered how the local churches behaved. Questions such as whether each church was independent of another, or where the colonial churches stand in relation to those of England and Scotland, were important by the time Wise wrote this work. The direction of travel of the churches was also concerning to the settlers; should these churches evolve to have a hierarchy, with bishops and other officers? Or should each church retain a sole focus upon their local village congregations? Amicably resolving such debates was paramount in the context of the devout societies of colonial-era New England, and the author sets about doing so eloquently and persuasively.

Excerpt: ... more particular time is best left to the determination of each respective association. 5. That the associations shall direct when there is occasion for this council to convene, on any emergency, and shall direct whether the whole or only a certain number of these consociated pastors and churches shall convene on such occasions. 6. It appears agreeable to the present condition of our churches, and from our beginnings acknowledged, that no act of the councils is to be reckoned as concluded and decisive, for which there has not been the concurrence of the major part of the pastors therein concerned. 7. The determinations of the councils thus provided, for the necessities of the churches are to be looked upon as final and decisive, except aggrieved churches and pastors have weighty reasons to the contrary, in which cases there should be provision for a further hearing; and it seems proper that the council convened on this occasion should consist of such pastors I as may be more for number than the former, and they should be such, as shall be directed to, and convened for this purpose by the ministers of an association, near to that whereto those of the former council belonged, unto which the aggrieved should accordingly apply themselves, and in this way expect a final issue? 8. If a particular church will not be reclaimed by council from such gross disorders as plainly hurt the common interest of Christianity, and are not mere tolerable differences in opinion, but are plain sins against the command and kingdom of our Lord Jesus Christ, the council is to declare that church no longer fit for communion with the churches of the faithful; / and the churches represented in the council are toJ approve, confirm, and ratify the sentence, and...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Vindication of the Government of New England Churches, And, the Churches Quarrel Espoused, or a Reply to Certain Proposals Dear sir, -i have re-read Mr. Wise's book, and think the republication of it by the Congregational Board of Publication very desirable. There is sharp and strong reasoning in it, and it marks our Congregationalism in Massachusetts for a full century. It has been the means of saving to our churches their true inde pendency, and our ministers from combining to exercise a joint in uence over them. It is also the best exposition of the platform that has ever been given, and has wellnigh brought its two faces to look in the same direction. It is the only book of au thority recognized by our courts of law as a reliable commentary on the platform. These reasons seem conclusive.

Drawn from Antiquity; The Light of Nature; Holy Scripture; It's Noble Nature; And from the Dignity Divine Providence Has Put Upon It written by John Wise and published by Gale Ecco, Print Editions. This book was released on 2018-04-25 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century. ++++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.
