Synopsis The Place of the Westminster Assembly in Modern History (Classic Reprint) by : John De Witt
Excerpt from The Place of the Westminster Assembly in Modern History In the modern world, this great idea began its mission in the Pro testant Reformation. But the Protestant Reformation at the begin ning did not give to it the place it soon afterwards assumed. The sovereignty of God in the history and destiny of every soul was the belief of Luther, as centuries before it had been the belief of St. Augustine. It was not, however, until the Institutes of the Chris tian Religion were written by John Calvin, that the great truth of the sovereignty of God was formulated and correlated to the other doctrines of Christianity in precisely the mode in which it became the great historical force it afterward proved to be in the spheres of religion and politics. For Luther followed St. Augustine, and there 1s an important dis tinction to be made between the place which predestination holds in the doc'trinal system of Augustine, and the place which the eter nal purpose holds in the doctrinal system of Calvin. The profound experience of sin and grace of the North African father brought him to the conviction that God alone is the author of man's salva tion, for man is unable not only to effect it, but to begin the new creation, from death to life. And therefore the one ultimate explanation of the fact that regeneration is not universal is for him to be found in the sovereign and absolute predestination of God.

Synopsis A Short History of the Westminster Assembly (Classic Reprint) by : William Beveridge
Excerpt from A Short History of the Westminster Assembly This little work is nothing more than what it professes to be, a short history of the Westminster Assembly. It is hoped that the work will be found a fair and accurate statement of the historical facts associated with the Assembly. The author has done his best to work over for himself and with his own eyes the materials on which the history is based. These materials are abundant, and it is only too probable that much has escaped his notice and research. The Westminster Assembly was an epoch in the creed forming age in which it met, and the results of its deliberations have been far-reaching. Recent events in Scotland, notably the decision of the House of Lords on August lst, 1904, in the Free Church of Scotland Appeals Case, have given a fresh interest to the Assembly and its work, more especially the Confession of Faith. Attention may, therefore, be directed to two Notes appended to Chapter IX. These Notes have arisen directly out of the judgment of the House of Lords, and contain matter which may be of some interest to students of the Assembly.

Synopsis The Westminster Assembly by : William Wirt Henry
Excerpt from The Westminster Assembly: The Events Leading Up to It, Personnel of the Body, and Its Method of Work; An Address The church in Great Britain shared in the corruption of the church on the continent. Richard the Lion-hearted, his brother John, and Henry II., attempted indeed to defy the papal power, but each was made to cower before it, and J ohn and Henry were craven enough to hold their kingdoms as a gift from Innocent III., and to pay him trib ute. As his vassals. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
