http://www.urc.org.uk/union/cus_story.htm

Extractions: Lay Preaching You are in: Reform Magazine A new Church is born The Story of the Congregational Union of Scotland Scottish Congregationalism in common with the rest of Christendom derives from the early Church - the foot of the cross and Pentecost. Contrary to a popular assumption it is not an import, but as native as tartan. With the rest of the Scottish Church it shares the heritage of Ninian, Columba and the Celtic Church, and that church's later translation to an Episcopal, Roman model. Scotland's Reformation was as confused, messy and complex as that of any nation. It was born during forty years of struggling regency. Protracted arm-wrestling between Kirk and Crown on the issues of Presbytery-versus-Bishop and Church-versus-State turned the visionary, Presbyterian Church of the Scottish Reformation by the time of the Civil Wars into an intolerant one. The time was not ripe for a Scottish Congregationalism. Cromwell's New Model Army did attempt to hard-sell Congregationalism to Scotland, during its eight-year occupation, but these efforts barely survived the Restoration. In the 18th Century voices dissenting from the Kirk could be heard in Scotland. The Glasites, the Old Scots Independents and the Berians, three indigenous forms of Congregationalism, came and went as movements concerned to synthesise the primitive New Testament Church. Their example however was still in currency when a more dynamic movement began.

Extractions: Wednesday, September 07, 2005 Currently Available: 25,660 Minutes of Biblical, Reformed Teaching Home Sermons Westminster Confession Puritan Paperbacks ... About Sir, as diverse times before, so now again I must tell you there are two kings and two kingdoms in Scotland; there is Christ Jesus and His Kingdom the Kirk, whose subject King James the Sixth is, and of whose Kingdom he is not a king, nor a head, nor a lord, but a member; and they whom Christ has called, and commanded to watch over His kirk and govern His spiritual kingdom, have sufficient power of Him and authority so to do, both together and severally, the which no Christian King nor prince should control and discharge, but fortify and assist, otherwise not faithful subjects, not members of Christ. This class will attempt to tell the story of two kingdoms in Scotland: Christ's Kingdom, the Church, and that kingdom which also belongs to Christ, but is ruled by the civil magistrate. Man, in his fallen state, is often tempted to assert his autonomy over God. For the civil magistrate, the temptation often takes the form of extending his dominion beyond its proper boundaries.

Next THE FREE CHURCH OF SCOTLAND In Glen Urquhart most of the community supported the Disruption and erected the church and the manse in 1847. In 1900 the minister and most of the congregation joined the Union. However, all the elders and many of the congregation had returned to the Free Church by 1903. The church was destroyed by fire in 1956 and rebuilt shortly after on a much smaller scale. Glen Urquhart: Church located at Oakbank, Milton, 1 mile west of Drumnadrochit on A831 Cannich Road. This church was built in 1844 by the people of the Glen. The story behind the building of the church is common to many Highland communities of the time, when the "Disruption" took place. It was a most heart-warming story. Briefly at the centre of the story is a spiritual movement that was taking place throughout Scotland. This movement meant that people became very aware that the men in the pulpit and ruling over them in spiritual matters (their ministers) ought to be men who believed in, and preached from, the Bible. However the predominant church in Scotland was the Church of Scotland, and in many places the men who occupied the pulpit were not at all interested in the specifics of Bible teaching. Indeed their life styles were far from commending Bible teaching.

The Fishwrapper
Mission partners of the church of scotland working in Northeast Thailand. Contains news of local church developments. Includes many photos.
http://website.lineone.net/~mfucella/

Extractions: As you can read in the latest Fishwrapper we have been settling in to the new and challenging work with the Karen Christians of the 16th Presbytery of the Church of Christ in Thailand. We are finding the Karen to be wonderful neighbors and hosts. Despite all the challenges the people face they are warm and outgoing. Always seeing the positive and always hoping for the best. The Karen people and the Church which is called to serve them are under constant political and cultural pressure. Have a look at some of the linked websites to the left to findout some of the horrific details of the oppression faced by the Karen living in Burma. Recent evictions of this indigeneous people from forest homelands and the fact that many are seen as 2nd or 3rd rate citizens (eg. given only hilltribe status and restricted as to rights of movement) highlights the difficult situation they face in Thailand as well. Klity, where one of the Presbytery's new believers' groups is located has suffered from the exploitative practice of a lead mine.

Extractions: Christianity Subdivisions Page 1 of 6 Printable version of this page The Church of Scotland The Church of Scotland is a mainstream Protestant Christian church, but like all churches it has developed its own authentic and individual character. Greyfriars Kirk, Edinburgh The history of Christianity in Scotland goes back to 400 CE, although the institution itself did not become the established Church of Scotland until 1560, following the Reformation, and the work of John Knox and others. Despite schisms that led to the formation of the Free Church of Scotland, the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland and the United Free Church of Scotland, loyalty to the Church has remained strong. In 2000 Church membership was estimated at 607,714. This figure only represents those officially listed as members. The number of people who consider themselves part of the Church in a more informal way is significantly higher.

Extractions: Post WWII Church of Scotland split, 1843 At its General Assembly in Edinburgh in 1843, the Church of Scotland split when nearly 200 ministers marched out to gather in another hall and form the Free Church of Scotland. The new church included more than one third of all former Church of Scotland ministers. Guided by Thomas Chalmers as their first moderator, within two years the Free Church had built 500 new churches, as well as 712 schools by 1851. Many Scots believed the disruption to have been the most significant event of the nineteenth century, and its effects were felt in Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
