Book Description
Excerpt from History of the Presbytery of Huntingdon The history of the Presbytery of Huntingdon was suggested more by circumstances of a personal character than of public consideration. The histories of other Presbyteries have been written, Which have not had so long an existence, or more important events to record. It is proper at once to state, that no person is responsible for this history but the writer, though he has received material aid in preparing it from some of the brethren of the Presbytery, With others of the Presbytery of Northumberland, Which was formed of members originally belonging to the Presbytery of Hunt ingaon. For the historical part proper, the dependence has mainly been upon the Records of the Presbytery. External aid has been chiefly in the biographical part of the Work. The names of all the brethren by Whom I have been encouraged and favored With valuable help, are too numerous to mention. But I cannot forbear in this connection acknowledging my obli gations to Dr. Robert hamill, the Stated Clerk of the Presbytery, and also Rev. Andrew D. Mitchell, Stated Clerk of the Presbytery of Carlisle, and the Rev. William simonton, of the Presbytery of Northum berland. When indebted to others for biographical sketches, and other service, the names are usually appended. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

True Christianity
Author: J. Russell Frazier
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 163087339X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
John William Fletcher (1729-1785) was a seminal theologian during the early methodist movement and the Church of England in the eighteenth century. Best known for the Checks to Antinomianism, he worked out a theology of history to defend the church against the encroachment of antinomianism as a polemic against hyper-Calvinism, whose system of divine fiat and finished salvation, Fletcher believed, did not take seriously enough either the activity of God in salvation history or an individual believer's personal progress in salvation. Fletcher made the doctrine of accommodation a unifying principle of his theological system and further developed the doctrine of divine accommodation into a theology of ministry. As God accommodated divine revelation to the frailties of human beings, ministers of the gospel must accommodate the gospel to their hearers in order to gain a hearing for the gospel without losing the goal of true Christianity. This book contains insights for pastors, missionaries, and Christian thinkers on true Christianity from Fletcher, who devoted himself, according to Wesley, to being "an altogether Christian."
