Publisher's Synopsis
""The Subordinate Standards: And Other Authoritative Documents Of The Free Church Of Scotland"" is a book that was first published in 1851. It is a collection of documents that are considered authoritative by the Free Church of Scotland. The Free Church of Scotland is a Presbyterian denomination in Scotland that was formed in 1843 when a group of ministers left the Church of Scotland due to disagreements over the relationship between the church and the state. The documents included in this book are known as the ""subordinate standards"" of the Free Church of Scotland. They include the Westminster Confession of Faith, the Larger and Shorter Catechisms, the Directory for the Public Worship of God, and the Form of Presbyterian Church Government. These documents are considered to be foundational to the beliefs and practices of the Free Church of Scotland.In addition to the subordinate standards, this book also includes other authoritative documents of the Free Church of Scotland, such as the Deed of Demission, which was the document that the ministers signed when they left the Church of Scotland, and the Act of Separation and Deed of Demission, which established the Free Church of Scotland as a separate denomination.Overall, ""The Subordinate Standards: And Other Authoritative Documents Of The Free Church Of Scotland"" is an important historical document that provides insight into the beliefs and practices of the Free Church of Scotland in the mid-19th century. It is a valuable resource for scholars of Scottish Presbyterianism and anyone interested in the history of the Free Church of Scotland.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
