Excerpt from Samuel Rutherford
The earliest biographical notices of Samuel Rutherford were written by his secretary and assistant, Rev. R. Macward, and were attached to the first edition of his letters. Later biographies have appeared from the pens of Dr. Thomas Murray, Rev. C. Thomson, and Dr. Andrew Bonar. To all of these and to many other sources - not least to Rutherford's own letters - I am indebted for facts and impressions, and on all of them I have endeavoured to form and express an independent judgment. Dr. Bonar's short memoir of thirty-two pages is written in a style of quaint beauty, and in fine sympathy with the spirit of Rutherford.
On the subject of the Westminster Assembly, the authorities I have consulted have been very numerous.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the life and legacy of a 17th-century Scottish minister, a prominent figure during a turbulent period of religious and political upheaval. Born in Teviotdale around 1600, he rose to prominence as a gifted scholar, preacher, and pastor, leaving an indelible mark on Scotland's religious landscape. The narrative traces his journey from his early days in Teviotdale through his influential ministry in Anwoth, a small parish in Galloway. His unwavering commitment to his faith and his opposition to religious and political reforms imposed by the ruling authorities led to his banishment and confinement. Despite facing adversity, he remained steadfast in his beliefs, finding solace in writing and reflection. The book explores themes of faith, resilience, and the enduring power of the human spirit in the face of persecution. It offers a glimpse into the complexities of 17th-century Scotland, where religious convictions intertwined with political struggles, shaping the destiny of a nation. Ultimately, the book sheds light on the profound impact of one man's unwavering dedication to his principles, leaving a lasting legacy of courage and conviction that continues to inspire generations.
