Scottish Presbyterians and the Act of Union 1707
Author: Jeffrey Stephen
Publisher: Edinburgh University Press
ISBN: 0748630783
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
Set against the background of post-revolution Scottish ecclesiastical politics, this book addresses the hitherto largely neglected religious dimension to the debates on Anglo-Scottish Union. Focusing predominantly on the period between April 1706 and January 1707, the book examines the attitudes and reactions of Presbyterians to the treaty and challenges many of the widely held assumptions about the role of the church and other groups during the debate. The focal point of the Kirk's response was the Commission of the General Assembly. Through the extensive use of church records and other primary sources the work of the commission in pursuit of church security through its debates, committees and addresses, is discussed at length. The book also examines the church and groups like the Cameronians and Hebronites in relation to the parliamentary debate, the pursuit of alternatives to incorporation, popular protest, addressing and armed resistance.

The Moderators of the Church of Scotland From 1690 to 1740 (Classic Reprint)
Author: John Warrick
Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9780484765572
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 406
Book Description
Excerpt from The Moderators of the Church of Scotland From 1690 to 1740 The character and scope of the pages which follow are sufficiently set forth in the Introduction. The material for each biography has been gathered from many sources. These are indicated in the text. With the single exception of Carstares, of whose biography by Principal Story I have made free use, none of the Moderators dealt with has formed till now the subject of special study. A few meagre notes about Meldrum, Blair, and William Hamilton are to be found in the pages of The Christian Instructor. Scott's Fastz' gives helpful references, but in great measure in every case the information secured has been hunted for in likely and unlikely quarters. Hundreds of books, including the various Club Publications, have been examined in the hope of gaining facts of moment, however small, in order to increase the vividness of the portraits dra Doubtless there are other details of interest still lying undiscovered in printed pamphlet and unprinted manuscript, but the result which I now offer as a contribution to the study of Scottish Church History, is as rich a harvest as I could reap from the fields which were open to me to traverse, and which had practically been untraversed before.
