Book Description
Excerpt from Civil Church Law Note. - Under the general title of Civil Church Law it is purposed to edit a series of digests presenting the statute law affecting religious organizations as it is being developed in the American commonwealths. Such law is not now easily accessible to the great body of church people, yet with the rapid development of church as one of the great institutions of American society there is more and more use for it. Again, the time has passed when even the chief features of the civil church law of all the commonwealths could with convenience be presented in a single volume, and those bearing church responsibilities generally need to know only the law directly defining their duties and rights. American statute legislation relating to ecclesiastical organization is developing rapidly. It is evident that we are in the midst of a general movement for the broader introduction of purely ecclesiastical elements into the civil law, creating not indeed a civil establishment of religion, but more and more of a legal establishment of church. In order to set forth this body of law as it develops, in the form best adapted to serve the interests of the whole body of church people, the plan of a series of State digests has been adopted. The type for these digests will be kept standing, and the changes in the law of each State will be presented annually. To extend the benefit of this watch on legislation for churches to the churches themselves it has been arranged that subscribers to any State digest shall receive free of charge for a period of three years after their subscription copy of all further legislation affecting religious organizations. If, however, a general revision of the law should be effected during such a period, the editor reserves the right to bring out another edition.

Book Description
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. This collection reveals the history of English common law and Empire law in a vastly changing world of British expansion. Dominating the legal field is the Commentaries of the Law of England by Sir William Blackstone, which first appeared in 1765. Reference works such as almanacs and catalogues continue to educate us by revealing the day-to-day workings of society. ++++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

Excerpt from Civil Church Law Cases: To Illustrate the Civil Status of American Churches The question very naturally arises whether students of our ecclesiastical institutes, scientific ecclesiologists, will appear, who, having studied existing ecclesiastical phe nomena, will, now, with trained powers, aid in the defense and guidance of the developing uses of liberty of thought and action for the purposes of religion.

Book Description
Excerpt from An Historical Account of the Rise and Development of Presbyterianism in Scotland Throughout the whole history of the Reformed Church in Scotland one of the most outstanding features will be found to be the overwhelming desire to maintain the independence of the Church from all secular control, and the most characteristic feature of the disputes which went on during the reigns of the Stewart Kings (especially James VI and I, and Charles I), was the failure of those Monarchs to appreciate the Scottish sentiments Of Patriotism, Protestantism and Freedom.
