In Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones' sermon on the Scottish Reformation, delivered at Usher Hall in Edinburgh in April 1960to mark the 400th anniversary of the Scottish Reformation, he emphasizes the importance of looking to our past for answers in the present. Many Christians today lobby against using past precedents to teach us, either saying that the past has nothing to teach us in this different time or that the history of the church should not be brought up, lest it cause acrimony. In response to these claims, Dr. Lloyd-Jones states that first, we are not different in nature or being to the men and women of the Reformation and therefore, cannot dismiss their accomplishments, and second, that the past should be explored and understood rather than suppressed. With this said, Dr. Lloyd-Jones demonstrates the two ways that one can view the Scottish Reformation. The first way is to simply explore the events that took place in the Scottish Reformation. The second is by using the actions and events that took place to further our walk with God today. So, what exactly can we learn from the Scottish reformation? Dr. Lloyd-Jones states that the best way to do so is by looking at the men who led such a movement. But who were these men? Well, these were godly men who believed in the sovereignty of God and the need to worship him. These were men who realized Christ's sacrifice and dedicated their lives to him because of it. For example one of the key figures in the Scottish reformation, John Knox, demonstrated fearless resistance towards the mighty Catholic Church. Dr. Lloyd-Jones emphasizes that Knox did not stand up against the Church by his own power, but by the power of God. John Knox realized the absolute greatness of God and consequently preached with power. So, we must ask ourselves, Where is the God of John Knox? Where is this God that can give us such power? To this, Dr. Lloyd-Jones replies, he is here and present, just as he was in the time of John Knox. And if we have accepted Jesus as our Lord and Savior, we have the same God, we must only realize his greatness and react accordingly.

Explore the final article of John Knox's Scott's Confession as we discuss the gifts freely given to the church, the true marks of a biblical church, and the role of the church in Christian perseverance. Dive into the importance of confession, absolution, and boldness in proclaiming the gospel. Learn how Knox's theology applies to modern church life and why the church is central to every believer's faith journey. In this episode of the Reformed Brotherhood, Tony and Jesse conclude their series on John Knox's Scott's Confession by exploring the final article, "The Gifts Freely Given to the Church." They discuss the significance of the church as the central place where God's gifts, including the gospel, sacraments, and discipline, are administered to His people. Knox's theology highlights the role of the church in sustaining believers and ensuring their perseverance in faith through the power of the Holy Spirit. The conversation emphasizes the importance of confession and absolution as key elements of worship and spiritual renewal within the community of faith. The brothers also reflect on Knox's prayer at the conclusion of the confession, which calls for the confounding of God's enemies, the boldness of His servants in proclaiming the Word, and the spread of the gospel to all nations. They explore how this prayer encapsulates Knox's vision for the church as a place of purity, worship, and mission. The episode considers how theology must translate into action, shaping the lives of believers and their engagement with the church. Finally, Tony and Jesse encourage listeners to persevere in their faith by remaining actively engaged in the life of the church. They emphasize the importance of daily worship, prayer, and regular participation in the church's ministry as means by which believers are sustained and renewed in their walk with God. The discussion ties Knox's historical theology to the challenges and opportunities faced by contemporary Christians. Key Points: The Church as the Center of God's Gifts: Knox emphasizes that the true church is where the Word is rightly preached, the sacraments are faithfully administered, and discipline is executed according to Scripture. The church is the primary means of grace for believers. Perseverance of the Saints: Knox's theology underscores that true Christians will persevere to the end, not because of their own strength but through the sustaining power of the Holy Spirit, often mediated through the church. Confession and Absolution: The importance of regular rhythms of confession and the assurance of absolution within the church is highlighted as critical for spiritual renewal and growth. Knox's Vision of Purity and Mission: The final prayer in the confession calls for the purity of the gospel, the boldness of the church in proclaiming it, and the spread of God's truth to all nations. The Role of the Church in Christian Life: The episode explores how the church is central to the believer's faith, not just as a place of worship but as a community where believers are encouraged, challenged, and spiritually nourished. Questions for Reflection: How does Knox's theology challenge modern views of individualism in the Christian life? Why are the true marks of the church—preaching, sacraments, and discipline—so important for sustaining believers? In what ways can you actively participate in the life of your church to grow in your faith? How can Knox's final prayer inspire your own prayers for the church and its mission? What role does confession and absolution play in your understanding of worship and renewal?

The second of three episodes inspired by David Campbell's mini-series on three remarkable brothers who ministered in 19th Century Scotland. This week we consider Horatius Bonar (1808–1889), pastor, author, and hymnwriter. We read David Campbell's article on him, an excerpt from Iain H. Murray, and then read a piece by Bonar himself critiquing the idea of 'religion without theology'. We close with a rendition of Bonar's hymn, Everlasting Light.   Featured Content: – 'Horatius Bonar—The second of the three Bonar brothers', David Campbell, Banner of Truth Magazine, Issue 722, November 2023. – Excerpt from 'Horatius Bonar (1808–1889) and his Writings', Iain H. Murray, Banner of Truth Magazine, Issue 314, November 1989. – 'Religion Without Theology' (taken from the preface of Catechisms of the Scottish Reformation, edited by Horatius Bonar, London 1866), featured in the Banner of Truth Magazine, Issue 93, June 1971. – 'Everlasting Life', a hymn of Horatius Bonar (public domain).   Featured Hymn: Everlasting Light 1 O everlasting Light! Shine graciously within; Brightest of all on earth that's bright, Come, shine away my sin. 2 O everlasting Truth! Truest of all that's true; Sure guide of erring age or youth, Lead me, and teach me too. 3 O everlasting Strength! Uphold me in the way; Bring me, in spite of foes, at length To joy, and light, and day. 4 O everlasting Love; Wellspring of grace and peace, Pour down Thy fullness from above, Bid doubt, and trouble cease. 5 O everlasting Rest! Lift off life's load of care; Relieve, revive this burdened breast, And ev'ry sorrow bear. 7 Thou art in heav'n our all; Our all on earth art Thou; Upon Thy glorious name we call: Lord Jesus, bless us now.   We are grateful to Mr. Jack Adair for singing this hymn.   Explore the work of the Banner of Truth: www.banneroftruth.org Subscribe to the Magazine (print/digital/both): www.banneroftruth.org/magazine Leave us a voice message: www.speakpipe.com/magazinepodcast

How did the Scottish Rebellion happen, and what effect did this have on the Church of England? In episode 6 of our series on the Puritan movement, we learn more about how the separation but shared monarchy of England and Scotland causes political and religious issues. The Scottish Reformation had produced a Presbyterian church, so when Charles I tries to unite England and Scotland in worship practice, the Scots rebel. Hear how Charles's dicey relationship with Parliament comes to a head during this time, how Charles decides to deal with the rebellion, and how the Catholics make this situation even more tenuous. Rev. Dr. Cameron A. MacKenzie, Professor of Historical Theology at Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, Indiana, joins Andy and Sarah for our nine-episode series on the History of the Puritan Movement in England.

CHURCH HISTORY 2 #NormanKissinger #NK #RTTBROS #nightlight Church History 2 Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations: ask thy father, and he will shew thee; thy elders, and they will tell thee." - Deuteronomy 32:7 (KJV) In our fast-paced, forward-looking world, we often neglect the importance of knowing our spiritual heritage. Many modern churches, in their pursuit of relevance, have inadvertently disconnected themselves from the rich tapestry of church history. However, as believers, we must recognize the value of understanding our roots. A powerful illustration of this comes from the life of John Knox, the 16th-century Scottish Reformer. Knox's theology and actions not only shaped the Scottish Reformation but also had a profound impact on modern governance. His ideas about the right of the people to resist tyrannical rulers and the importance of education for all citizens influenced the development of democratic principles. These concepts, rooted in his understanding of biblical teachings, later found their way into the political philosophies that shaped nations like the United States. This example demonstrates how studying church history reveals the profound impact Christianity has had on the world. Many of the values and institutions we cherish today - from human rights to modern democracy - have their roots in Christian thought and action. The church, despite its flaws, has been a powerful force for good in the world. By exploring the lives of great Christian thinkers, reformers, and missionaries of the past like Knox, we gain inspiration for our own walk with God. Their dedication, their insights, and even their mistakes can guide us as we seek to live out our faith in the present. Let us not neglect this vital aspect of our faith. Instead, let's embrace the study of church history as a means of strengthening our faith, deepening our understanding, and equipping ourselves to be more effective witnesses for Christ in our own generation. As we do so, we'll discover that we are part of a grand, ongoing story - the story of God's redemptive work in the world through His church. https://linktr.ee/rttbros Be sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out. https://linktr.ee/rttbros

WHAT ABOUT CESSATIONISM? During my research for Glory Through Time, Vol. Two, I ran into something that really surprised, even shocked me, because it was so unexpected. I discovered a powerful outpouring of a spirit of prophecy during the Scottish Reformation. I describe this in Volume Two, Chapters 1-10. I had been taught that the […]

It took more than chutzpah to open a contraceptive clinic in 1920s Aberdeen. Family planning pioneer, Fenella Paton had money, connections and courage. Dr Alison McCall shows us why the clinic was needed and how it made a difference. Dr Christine Whyte of Glasgow University takes us far out to sea where terrified children were rescued from enslavers, but what happened to them next? Humanitarian intervention can be a tricky subject. Statue smashing - a favourite intervention of the 16th century Scottish Reformers who also liked to burn artworks and chop them up - but what did people feel about that at the time, and what did the authorities mean to do about it? Dr Bess Rhodes of St Andrews University takes us to a pivotal moment for the Scottish Reformation.

The Prince of Darkness wrought havoc on the souls of seventeenth-century Christians living throughout the Atlantic world. Whether they called him Satan, the Devil, Beelzebub, or by any other name, Lucifer tempted men and women to break their covenant with God in Heaven and do his dark bidding on Earth. At a time of great religious upheaval, when the Protestant Reformation swept through Europe and across the ocean to England's American colonies, fears of Satan's malevolent influence and the search for signs of his deeds were particularly intense in Scotland. A Reformation driven largely by the Scottish clergy and gentry inspired Scots to see the Devil's works in their everyday lives, question their salvation, and steel themselves against the possibility of eternal damnation. And just like in Salem, Massachusetts in the 1690s, Scots saw witches among them. Between the mid-1560s and early 1730s, Scots accused nearly 4,000 people of being in league with Satan. They executed many of the alleged conspirators. On today's show, Dr. Michelle D. Brock helps us understand why Satan held such powerful sway over Reformed Scotland, how Scottish witch hunting compared to the colonial New England experience, and perhaps the ultimate question: In dealing with the supernatural, how do we know what we know. About Our Guest: Michelle D. Brock, Ph.D., is Associate Professor of history at Washington & Lee University. She is the author of Satan and the Scots: The Devil in Post-Reformation Scotland, c.1560-1700, (Routledge, 2016). She is co-director, along with Chris R. Langley of Newman University of Mapping the Scottish Reformation, a digital prosopography of the Scottish clergy between 1560 and 1689. About Our Host:  Jim Ambuske, Ph.D. leads the Center for Digital History at the Washington Library. A historian of the American Revolution, Scotland, and the British Atlantic World, Ambuske graduated from the University of Virginia in 2016. He is a former Farmer Postdoctoral Fellow in Digital Humanities at the University of Virginia Law Library. At UVA Law, Ambuske co-directed the 1828 Catalogue Project and the Scottish Court of Session Project.  He is currently at work on a book about emigration from Scotland in the era of the American Revolution as well as a chapter on Scottish loyalism during the American Revolution for a volume to be published by the University of Edinburgh Press.

In this interview with Dr Chris Langley and Dr Michelle Brock, we discuss their on-going project 'Mapping the Scottish Reformation' : a forthcoming database which will offer a first port of call and, hopefully, a catalyst for understanding and linking the lives of clerics in the early modern period. Mikki and Chris share their enthusiasm about this project, suggest how it might be used by researchers and hobbyists, and undcover some interesting themes they have discovered.

On Today in Church His-Story (Episode 41) we learn about a young preacher whose life was cut short. But from this stump came many fruitful branches of gospel preachers. Patrick Hamilton was the first martyr of the Scottish Reformation. He preached the pure gospel before George Wishart and John Knox. He wrote a work entitled Patrick’s Places, an affirmation that salvation is by grace alone in Christ alone. On this podcast we discover Patrick’s place in history. (Music on this Podcast furnished by Bensound, Mid-Air Machine)

Scottish Awakening – The Lollard movement also went north, to Scotland, where it eventually produced the Scottish Reformation. Leaders in Scotland, called into the prayer of faith in God's word, were to experience spiritual regeneration on a scale not known for centuries. During the time of George Wishart, John Knox, John Welch and Andrew Melville, […]

Though not as well known as John Knox, Knox himself was shaped by this man’s bold declaration of God’s truth. Meet the forerunner to the Scottish Reformation, George Wishart.

This address was delivered by Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones at Usher Hall in Edinburgh in April 1960 on the occasion of the 400th anniversary of the Scottish Reformation.

 This year for Reformation Sunday I did a biography of John Knox. He is one of the bravest men I have ever read out and is the father not only of the Scottish Reformation but also of Presbyterianism.

In this episode of 5 Minutes in Church History, Dr. Stephen Nichols finishes his 3 part series on the Scottish Reformation with the story of Jenny Geddes and what she threw at her minister.

In this episode of 5 Minutes in Church History, Dr. Stephen Nichols continues his introduction to the Scottish Reformation with the story of an 82 year old martyr, Walter Milne.

In this episode of 5 Minutes in Church History, Dr. Stephen Nichols introduces us to Patrick Hamilton and the beginning of the Scottish Reformation.

There’s nothing quite like sitting down to write a novel about a man who, to quote Marie Macpherson, is blamed for “banning Christmas, football on Sundays,” and the like. What is one to do with such a subject, never mind making him interesting and sympathetic? Yet this is exactly what The First Blast of the Trumpet (Knox Robison Publishing, 2012) does for John Knox–best known as the dour misogynist who spearheaded the Scottish Reformation. Macpherson approaches Knox sideways through the character of Elizabeth Hepburn, a reluctant nun installed at the uncanonically young age of 24 as prioress of St. Mary’s Abbey to ensure the continued dominance of the earls of Bothwell (whose family name was Hepburn) over the abbey and its resources. Elizabeth’s determination to craft a life that suits her never wavers, despite the conflicting claims of her family, the lure of court politics, and the opposition of a male clergy bent on keeping women in their place. This wonderfully researched novel mixes history and fiction to reveal Scotland during its last century of independence in all its complexity, depravity, and richness; and as Elizabeth’s career increasingly intertwines with the childhood and youth of John Knox, the need for reform in the Scottish Catholic Church becomes ever clearer. The First Blast of the Trumpet is volume 1 of The Knox Trilogy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This wonderfully researched novel mixes history and fiction to reveal Scotland during its last century of independence in all its complexity, depravity, and richness; and as Elizabeth’s career increasingly intertwines with the childhood and youth of John Knox, the need for reform in the Scottish Catholic Church becomes ever clearer. The First Blast of the Trumpet is volume 1 of The Knox Trilogy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

John Knox was known as the "Thundering Scot" for his intense preaching. Although Knox cried in fear and confusion when first called upon to preach, he became the leading force among the Scottish Reformers, shaking his nation with his dramatic oratory skills. Forced while he was a galley slave by the Catholics to worship a statue of the Virgin Mary, he instead threw it overboard. This fearlesssness would make him a dramatic leader in the exciting times of the Reformation in Scotland.

In this video, we discuss the impact that John Knox and the Scottish Reformation had on Presbyterians throughout history. We specifically identify 6 lessons we can learn from God's work of revival, renewal, and restoration.
