Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Catechisms of the Scottish Reformation: Edited, With Preface and Notes It is not from the mere love of what is old or national, that I have been led to re-edit these rudimental standards of the Church of Scotland. I wish certainly to preserve them; but not as mere fossils for a museum; not as the footprints of an extinct race; not as relics of an exploded theology, or an obsolete religion. I would reprint them because of their genuine and unaltered value, and as embodying truths which are quite as necessary for us as they were for our fathers. The truths of the Reformation are not obsolete. Their human classification and language may go out of date; they themselves remain. They are not old anchorage-ground, which the elevation of the coast during these three centuries has left dry. Nor are these catechisms old anchors from which the cables have been slipped, and which have been left to rust on the beach or sink into the sands; superseded by modern inventions better fitted to abide the storm. The doctrines themselves are not ephemeral, nor have the formulae in which our fathers clothed them been proved to be either inaccurate or inadequate. In so far as they do not fit in with "the spirit of the age," there is room for fair inquiry as to whether the fault may not belong to the age rather than to the dogmata or formulae.
