Book excerpt: Excerpt from Makers of the Scottish Church at the Reformation As the life of John Knox has been so Often written, I had some misgivings as to whether he should appear here for separate treatment, but it was impossible to exclude him - the greatest Of them all, and incalculably influencing all the others. I have not, however, in his case given a biography, but, as stated in the text, have selected certain incidents in his career, features in his character, and aspects of truth he emphasised, which are closely related to the work Of reform. I have also laid stress on his modern Spirit. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Discourse on Scottish Church History: From the Reformation to the Present Time, With Prefatory Remarks on the S. Giles's Lectures, and Appendix of Notes and References And then, as we approach the period of the Reformation, we appreciate and admire the contrast, vividly drawn, between the noble and upward course of the pioneers of the recovery of Gospel Light and Truth - especially Patrick Hamilton, Alexander Alesius, and George Wishart, and the perverse downward course of their opponents, the champions of Darkness and Error - the ill-fated Cardinal Beaton, the double-minded Earl of Arran, and the weak and dissolute King James V. (Lect. 4). In these first four Lectures, it is scarcely necessary for me to say there is little or nothing which we Episcopalians should not have listened to with pleasure, or should have hesitated to welcome, had they been heard from any of our own pulpits; and though, when we reach the Reformation itself, it was not to be expected that this harmony of sentiment would continue to be maintained to the same extent, yet we thankfully observe that the points on which we become constrained to differ from the positions of the succeeding Lecturers, are still very few in comparison with those upon which we can cordially and unreservedly agree with them. With this observation, we enter upon the fifth Lecture, which it is necessary to notice in more detail. No one can be more ready than the present writer (as, indeed, I showed in a discourse preached and published more than twenty years ago on occasion of the Tercentenary in 1860) to pay to Knox the honour he deserved for his "supreme loyalty to the Word of God" (p. 151), his unswerving "vindication of the paramount authority of Holy Scripture" (p. 133). But when it is objected to our "landed gentry," that they "stand aloof from the Church of Knox" (p. 148), I must be permitted to reply that it is Presbyterians themselves who, at the present day, stand further aloof from the Church of Knox than Episcopalians do.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Scottish Church, Vol. 2 The author has much reason to be gratified with the criticisms of the press on the first volume of his history. His statement in the preface that he did not profess to be colourless in his opinions, was interpreted by some critics as an admission that he had written in the spirit and with the design of a partisan. He submits that the words were susceptible of a different interpretation. The writer of Church history, who is aware of his own bias in things ecclesiastical, is the more likely to be on his guard against it, and to steer an even course between divergent lines of historical representation. This has been his honest endeavour in the second volume as in the first. But as the modern period, now brought under review, bristles with controversial matter over which historians have disputed from the Reformation downwards, he has no very sanguine expectation that his treatment of it will escape the charge of partisanship from extreme men of any school. To succeed in satisfying such as are themselves partisans would assuredly be the clearest proof of partisanship. The author desires to express his obligations to the Rev. George Sutherland, Portsoy, the Rev. J. C. Barry. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of John Knox: Containing Illustrations of the History of the Reformation in Scotland Another obscure passage in his Life, related to his offer of promotion in the English Church. Knox him. Self states that he had refused a Bishopric; and DE m'crie thinks it probable that Newcastle, which was then proposed to be erected by dividing the extensive diocese of Durham into two, was the'see destined for our Reformer: this is now found to be an error, and it is ascertained that the Bishopric of Rochester was that intended for Knox, could he have been prevailed upon to accept it. For these important facts in the Life of our Reformer, we are indebted to the recent investiga tions of a distinguished living historian, Mr. Patrick fraser tytler, in the State Paper Office.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Scottish Church Question IN offering the following pages to the public, the writer would preface them with only a few words. The interest he takes in the important question, which he is about to examine, is a universal Protestant one. He considers that the relation between Church and State, which has arisen out of the Reformation in the various countries in which the Reformed Church is established, is still far from satisfying the claims which the Church of Christ on earth is bound by the Word of God to assert for her unfettered efficacy in providing for the spiritual welfare of the souls intrusted to her. He considers these claims to be as widely different from those of the Church of Rome as the headship of Christ himself over his Catholic spiritual kingdom is different from that of his supposed Vicar on earth. On this account they have, on the one hand, the higher authority and purer ends, and, on the other, they do not, if rightly understood, encroach upon the due powers and privileges which are given by God to the civil magistrate.
