Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves deep into ecclesiastical law, outlining the rules, regulations, governance, and principles that govern the Church in Scotland as set forth in the First and Second Books of Discipline. These texts, composed in the 16th century, established the doctrine and practices that shaped the Scottish Church. The author, Walter Steuart, provides a comprehensive analysis of these texts, shedding light on the origins, development, and significance of the Church's legal framework. The book examines key aspects of Church governance, including the roles and responsibilities of ministers, elders, deacons, and other office-bearers; the process for conducting church trials and imposing discipline; and the rules governing the admission and ordination of new members. It also explores the relationship between the Church and the civil authorities and examines the Church's stance on various moral and doctrinal issues. Through its thorough examination of historical documents and legal principles, this book provides an in-depth understanding of the foundations of the Scottish Church's legal and disciplinary system. It serves as a valuable resource for scholars, church historians, and anyone interested in the development of ecclesiastical law in Scotland.
