Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Lectures on the History of the Church of Scotland: Delivered in Edinburgh in 1872 I have prefixed to these Lectures a Sermon preached in Old Greyfriars´ Church at the kind invitation of the Rev. Dr. Wallace, Minister of the Parish, on January 7, 1872. It indicates the spirit in which I would wish the subject in the Lectures to be approached, and on that account seemed a not unfitting introduction. I have also wished to retain it as a record of the revival of a custom which had for a considerable period fallen into disuse, but which once was well recognized both in the Church of England and the Church of Scotland. It had long been my intention to avail myself of the liberty of preaching in the sister Church, which the law of both Churches allows, and had only waited till a fitting opportunity occurred. It is sufficient in illustration of this liberty, to refer to the interesting passage at the close of the twentieth edition of Dean Ramsays´ "Reminiscences of Scottish Life," as regards the practice and feeling at the beginning of this century; to Bishop Ewing´s admirable vindication of the principle in the "Sermon on Christmas-time," intended to have been preached before the University of Glasgow; and to Principal Tulloch´s able essay on the "English and Scottish Churches" in the "Contemporary Review," in December, 1871.
