Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of the Sandemanians, a religious movement that emerged in Scotland in the 18th century and spread to England and America. The Sandemanians were known for their literal interpretation of the Bible and their emphasis on the importance of following the practices of the early Christians. This book delves into the history of the movement, focusing on the key figures of John Glas and Robert Sandeman. The author explores the Sandemanians' distinctive beliefs, including their view of faith as a simple intellectual assent to the truth of the gospel, and their unique practices, such as the practice of washing one another's feet and the use of the holy kiss. The book also examines the controversies that surrounded the movement, particularly Sandeman's criticisms of popular preachers and theologians of the day, and the response that he received from those who disagreed with his views. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the religious landscape of the 18th century and sheds light on the importance of literalism and scriptural interpretation in shaping religious movements.
