Scottish Theoloy: in Relation to Church History John Macleod

Jacket Description/Flap: 'It has been my endeavour to handle my theme in a free and familiar fashion so as to avoid a coldly technical and stiff treatment of it, and to make it as instinct with human interest as the case permitted. This called for setting forth a theological discourse in a setting of real church life. Thus discussion and exposition are woven into a fabric of narrative. I need hardly say that I write from the standpoint of one cordially attached to the faith and witness of the Reformed churches. Though that faith is, for the time being, largely under an eclipse, its friends live in the hope that with a resurgence of evangelical godliness in days of reviving it will have an ample vindication, so that its future will in glory and in power surpass the best and brightest days of its past.' PRINCIPAL JOHN MACLEODReview Quotes: 'Reading "Scottish Theology" will prove an enlightening, heart-warming, and sobering engagement with the past and will enable us the better (hopefully) to "contend for the faith once for all delivered to the saints" in the present.' -- Ian Hamilton "https://banneroftruth.org/us/store/history-biography/scottish-theology/"
