Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Scotland, Chiefly in Its Ecclesiastical Aspect, Vol. 2 Thy holy cities are a wilderness, Zion is a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation. Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised Th'ee, is burnt up with fire and all our pleasant things are laid waste. - Isaiah lxiv. 10, 11. The Convention of the Estates of Scotland which met in Edinburgh in August 1560, marks a critical era in the national history. When the Three Estates met on the lst of August, Catholicism was the religion of the country when the Three Estates rose on the 24th of the same month, the Catholic hierarchy was abolished by law, and the Confession of Faith, drawn up by the leaders of the new opinions as a summary of their doctrines, was for mally ratified, and was received as the established creed.

Download or read book History of the Scottish Church Vol 2 Classic Reprint written by W. Stephen and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-15 with total page 762 pages. 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Church of Scotland, Vol. 2: From the Reformation to the Present Time But the chiefs of the Covenanters had now gone too far to recede, or even to remain inactive. They therefore spread abroad a false and malicious report, that the king intended to invade the kingdom with English troops: upon this ground they summoned a meeting, or convention, ofthe noblemen and commissioners of burghs, to meet at lldinburgh on the 20th of February. At this convention a paper was read, which had been drawn up by Balmerino, llope (the king's advocate), and Henderson (moderator of the late Assembly), recommending an appeal to arms, and using such arguments for itsjustification as tended to inflame the passions and prejudices of the meeting. The reasons adduced were declared to be so convincing, to men whose minds were previously made up, that instantly all of them, with one voice, consented to the listing ofan army, and voted general Leslie to be the commander thereof. The reasons hich had been submitted to the convention, and had been found so convincing to tlieui, were immediately published and dispersed to all parts of the kingdom, and the convention ordained, that every minister should read this treasonable do cument from their pulpits, and frame their discourses so as to procure an universal consent amongst their parishioners.

This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Church in Scotland, Vol. 2 When we scrutinize the movement in Scotland, we find no swift or startling change, but a gradual process of enlighten ment, the permeation of society in all its grades and classes by new ideas and ideals and the rise of new relationships, social, economic and political, resulting in emancipation from a bondage which had been due partly to ignorance, partly to isolation, partly to feudal obligations and the barbarisms of clan life. Political historians have frequently ascribed the revolution which took place in 1560 to those diplomatic negotiations which were recorded in State Papers, and specially to the change in the relations of Scotland to France and England; while many Church historians have written as if feudalism and the papacy had been omnipotent in their respective departments, until they gave way before the aggressions of Geneva Protestantism. But in fact these were only consequences, or, at the most, stages, of a trans formation which was assured, if not accomplished, at a time when England was still regarded as the Auld Enemy, ' and before Calvin had set foot in Switzerland.

At first Mary expressed an unwillingness to agree to Murray's terms, which were less easy than those discussed between Norfolk, Lethington, and the bishop of Ross, inso much as they required the absolute resigna tion of the crown; but she allowed herself to be convinced by Melville's arguments, and sent him back to the regent to signify her consent.
