Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of the Lives and Writings of Those Eminent Divines, Who Convened in the Famous Assembly at Westminster, in the Seventeenth Century, Vol. 1 Among such respectable characters, the divines who assembled at Westminster, in the seventeenth century, may be justly ranked. Their names are truly illustrious, and worthy of being enrolled among the most celebrat cd characters of their age, or of their country. Their exemplary lives, and religious experiences, are most ex cellent mirrors of instruction, which may be highly bene ficial to all succheding generations. They willingly spent an active life, in propa ating the gospel of Jesus Christ, and in diffusing pro table and religious knowledge among mankind: and it may very justly be said of them, that they were really eyes to the blind. Whatever their hand could write, whatever their tongue could speak, whatever their head could devise, was most sof lemnly dedicated to the service of God, and to the cause of truth. They did much for the benefit of posterity, when corru iion was deeply rooted, and had widely ex tended it's aneful influence. They flourished, during the time of our Reformation, and were very active in promoting it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of the Lives and Writings of Those Eminent Divines: Who Convened in the Famous Assembly at Westminister, in the Seventeenth Century Biography is highly useful and important. It hath been very generally esteemed: and it is commonly allowed to be, both a very pleasant and profitable method of conveying instruction unto the human mind. But here, I shall willingly borrow, from some celebrated writers, and gratefully acknowledge the debt. Montesquieu said, "What histories can be found, that please and instruct like the lives of Plutarch?" And Plutarch himself hath observed, "I live entirely upon history, and while I contemplate the pictures it presents to my view, my mind enjoys a rich repast from the representation of great and virtuous characters." Another celebrated writer says, "Among the smaller histories, biography, or the memoirs of the lives of great and good men, has a high rank in my esteem, as worthy of the perusal of every person who devotes himself to the study of divinity. Therein we frequently find our holy religion reduced to practice, and many parts of Christianity shining with a transcendent and examplary light. We learn there how deeply sensible great and good men have been of the ruins of human nature by the first apostacy from God; and how they have toiled and laboured, and turned themselves on all sides, to seek recovery in vain, till they have found the gospel of Christ an all-sufficient relief. We are there furnished with effectual and unanswerable evidences that the religion of Jesus with all its self-denials, virtues, and devotions, is a very practicable thing, since it has been carried to such a degree of honour by some wise and holy men.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: into the exegetical and theological underpinnings of the Westminster Confession’s chapter on the law by delivering an in-depth analysis of Anthony Burgess’s Vindiciae Legis . After a brief introduction to Burgess and his historical context, Casselli details the logical course of Burgess’s book considering the law as given to Adam, the law given to Moses, and finally the proper relation between law and gospel. Along the way, Casselli opens up such controverted points as natural law, the covenant of works, the continuing obligation to the moral law, and the diverse administrations of one unified covenant of grace. What we see is a pastoral theology developed in a richly complex environment where technical distinctions were warranted given the polemical context; where the broad history of the Western catholic tradition was deeply respected; where a covenantal hermeneutic was consistently applied to Scripture; and where all theological formulations grew out of detailed linguistic exegesis of particular texts of Scripture in the context of the broader ecclesiastical community. Table of Contents: 1. Introduction 2. The Life of Anthony Burgess 3. Creation and Law 4. Law Given to Moses 5. Law and Gospel 6. Conclusions Appendix A – Sabbath Series Description Complementing the primary source material in the Principal Documents of the Westminster Assembly series, the Studies on the Westminster Assembly provides access to classic studies that have not been reprinted and to new studies, providing some of the best existing research on the Assembly and its members.
