Extractions: THE CHURCH OF SCOTLAND AND HOMOSEXUALITY Click Here to Visit our Sponsors. Following the union of the Crowns of Scotland and England in 1603 CE , attempts were made to forcibly conform the Church of Scotland to the Church of England (Anglican) model. The resultant conflict ended in 1690 with the establishment of the Church of Scotland as a Presbyterian denomination. As of 2000-JAN, a law in Great Britain prohibits schools from teaching about homosexuality. It is called " Clause 28 ", and is a part of the Local Government Act (1986). There are indications that England and Wales are planning to repeal the law. However, some business people and the Roman Catholic Church in Scotland are attempting to keep the ban in place. The Church of Scotland 's education committee supports the repeal of Clause 28. They conclude that the school curriculum should: " Cover the whole range of orientation sensitively through sex education aimed at developing respect for others; self respect and understanding, but always in consultation with parents.

http://www.reformed.com/epcc/epcchist.htm

Extractions: By the providence of God, the Free Church of Scotland, as the predominant form of Presbyterian Christianity in mid-nineteenth century Canada, had a profound impact on Toronto and what became Ontario. But in 1875 the four branches of Presbyterianism in Canada joined together. Thereafter, although the Free Church heritage continued to manifest itself, the Free Church as a distinct body ceased in Canada. Mr. MacKenzie served diligently through the 1920s and well into the 1930s. From time to time, ministers and students of the Free Church came to Toronto (as well as to nascent congregations in Fort William (now Thunder Bay), Vancouver and Detroit), at the invitation of our grateful predecessors in this place, to conduct services and otherwise provide encouragement. Throughout this period, the Colonial Committee of the Free Church kept a watchful and sympathetic eye and assisted as it was able. The seriousness with which these men and women took their responsibilities directed by passages like Deut. 12:32 and chapter 21.1 of the Westminster Confession is clearly shown by the terms of the trust under which the trustees took the property (and under which our trustees today continue to hold our property). For example, the sixth condition of the trust is:

Extractions: Established form of Christianity in Scotland, first recognized by the state in 1560. It is based on the Protestant doctrines of the reformer Calvin and governed on Presbyterian lines. The church went through several periods of episcopacy (government by bishops) in the 17th century, and those who adhered to episcopacy after 1690 formed the Episcopal Church of Scotland, an autonomous church in communion with the Church of England. In 1843 there was a split in the Church of Scotland (the Disruption), in which almost a third of its ministers and members left and formed the Free Church of Scotland . By an Act of Union of 3 October 1929 the Church of Scotland was united with the United Free Church of Scotland to form the United Church of Scotland. There are over 680,000 members of the Church of Scotland (1998).

Extractions: Ron Lahav , 31 January 2005 The dove was the seal of the Seceders, one of the two bodies that merged into the UFC. The burning bush is the principal symbol of Scottish Presbyterianism generally. It appears before the St. Andrew's cross on the seal of the established Church of Scotland. Without the St. Andrew's cross, it is the emblem of the Free Church of Scotland. The majority of the FCS merged with the Seceder United Presbyterian Church in 1900 to form the United Free Church. The remnant, which retains the name Free Church of Scotland, and is known as the "Wee Frees," still uses the plain burning bush, while the UFC of S combines it with the Seceders' dove. Basically the Seceders, who split from the mainstream Church of Scotland in dissent from the main body's established status as the state church in 1733, and the Free Church, which split from the Church of Scotland over the issue of clerical patronage.

Extractions: edit The Church of Scotland has around 1,400 active ministers, 1,200 congregations, and its membership at approximately 600,000 comprises about 12% of the population of Scotland. However, in the 2004 national census, 42% of Scots identified themselves as Church of Scotland by religion. Although it is the national church, the Kirk is not a " state church ", and in this, and other, regards is dissimilar to the Church of England (the established church in England). Under its constitution, which is recognised by acts of Parliament, the Kirk enjoys complete independence from the state in spiritual matters. It is thus both established and free. The British monarch (when in Scotland) is simply a member of the Kirk (she is not, as in England, its "

http://www.forerunner.com/forerunner/X0531_Bios-_Scottish_Coven.html

Extractions: Increasing persecution by the Catholic authorities against the Scottish Reformers in the 1500s led them to adopt a form of public prayer proclamations or "covenantal lawsuits." The intent of these prayer proclamations was to implore their enemies to come to the knowledge of salvation. If the wicked rulers refused to repent of their murders and idolatries, the Church, acting as an ecclesiastical court, was giving them over to hell. These declarations warned their oppressors to repent or suffer the consequences of facing a militant uprising led by the Church of Scotland. The text of one such proclamation reads as follows: "To the generation of Antichrist, the pestilent prelates and their Shavelings within Scotland, the Congregation of Christ Jesus within the same, sayeth, "Yea, we shall begin that same war which God commanded Israel to execute against the Canaanites; that is, contract of peace shall never be made till ye desist from your bloody idolatry and cruel persecution of God's children. And this we signify unto you in the name of the eternal God, and of his Son Jesus Christ, whose verity we profess, and Evangel we will have preached, and holy Sacraments rightly ministered, so long as God will assist us to gainstand your idolatry. Take this for advertisement and be not deceived." The Scottish Covenanters refuted the idea of the "Divine Right of Kings" arguing that the King himself is in covenant with God. The people, as the king's subjects, were also a part of the covenant. Yes, God ordained earthly rulers, but only those who were just and obedient to God's law. If a king broke covenant with God, the people were obliged to throw off the shackles of tyranny - otherwise the people would be guilty of submitting to the unjust commandments of wicked rulers. John Knox implored the earthly rulers to submit themselves to God's authority:

http://www.mundus.ac.uk/cats/14/1032.htm

Extractions: Scottish Society Berliner Missionsgesellschaft? East Africa Scottish Mission? Administrative/Biographical history : The history of the overseas missionary work of Scottish societies and churches during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries is a complex one, informed by the convoluted nature of Scottish church organisation during this period. The earliest work was carried out by the Glasgow and Edinburgh Missionary Societies, both of which had been founded in 1796 (the latter changing its name in 1818 to the Scottish Missionary Society). These Societies represented both the Church of Scotland and the Secession Church, and initiated evangelization in West Africa, the Caribbean (from 1800), the Caucasus (from 1802), India (from 1823). As the nineteenth century progressed their work was gradually taken over by the better-supported Foreign Missions Committees of the Scottish churches. In 1824, following decades of campaigning by evangelicals and advocates such as George Hamilton and Dr Thomas Chalmers (1780-1847) the established Church of Scotland resolved to enter the missionary field by appointing a committee to inaugurate overseas mission work. This resulted, in 1829, in the assignment of the first Church of Scotland missionary to India.
