This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1863 edition. Excerpt: ... the congregation must be informed of it, and must have an opportunity of giving in objections; but that the church courts, if they think the reasons of objection ill-founded, are entitled to intrude ministers upon reclaiming congregations; while we maintain that, under these provisions, the refusal of the consent, or the positive dissent of the congregation, was a conclusive bar to the settlement. Now, here we may observe, that a very great antecedent improbability attaches to the notion that the Second Book of Discipline gives to the people only a right of stating objections of which another party is to judge. The First Book of Discipline gave them the right of election. We know of no ground for believing that in the interval there was any material change of sentiment in the church on this point; and, therefore, even if we were forced to admit that the Second Book took away from them the initiative, we would naturally expect that it would still leave them the right of giving or withholding their consent. We never could suppose, without very conclusive evidence, that the church would sink so rapidly from the high Protestant principle of the right of the people to choose their own ministers, down to the lowest depths of Popery and Moderatism, and give them only a right of objecting on cause shown. When the Second Book holds up the standard of the apostolic and primitive kirk, and denounces so strongly the corruptions introduced on this subject by Antichrist, it is surely in the highest degree improbable that it should give the people no higher rights than what Mr Robertson concedes to them, and what no Papist has ever in theory denied to them. Our opponents, indeed, sometimes speak as if there was something so essentially absurd about our...

How can we learn to relate better to one another across the differences and diversity that we find in our church communities? This five-session course is designed to help identify the roadblocks that can so easily hinder us from understanding each other better and loving each other more deeply. The course encourages us to find creative ways to grow and learn together in the love of God. The course is based on the Church of England’s Pastoral Principles for Living Well Together. These Principles identify six ‘pervading evils’ that hinder our growth as Christians, hurt other people and create barriers that stop our churches from growing into Christian communities of welcome and belonging. Each session focuses on one or two of these ‘evils’ and includes resources for Bible study, refection, discussion and worship. Free accompanying videos are available via www.churchofengland.org/PAG By exploring these in our everyday lives and relationships, the course helps us to play our part in seeking unity in our church communities as well as in the wider community. It can be used to explore particular topics about which there is disagreement, or used simply as a means of becoming a community that lives more fully in the way of Christ.

The author of this work, Isaac Ojutalayo, has done his research on the subject of leadership and church growth. The contents of this book are the written evidence. The eleven chapters embrace some of the most important and necessary things that leaders should learn and practise, whether they are ordained ministers or lay workers in the church. The principles he has written about can also be applied in circular organisation. This book reveals Dr Isaac Ojutalayo’s academic achievement and experimental development. He has divided each chapter into readable sections that can be easily discussed and studied. The book is suitable for individuals and groups who are called by God to lead His people. Dr Isaac Ojutalayo is passionate that leaders be men and women of excellence, whether the congregation they lead is large or small. He stresses communication, generosity, honesty, and continuing education with the highest level of trust, all essential elements of church growth. He points out repeatedly that the church and the world community are suffering from a crisis of leadership, that bold and honest leaders are needed in the church and in the marketplace, as well as in the home. In my analysis he has called for transformational leaders to rise up and effect change. It is very clear that he is saying that many leaders work within situations. Transformational leaders change what can be talked about, whereas many other leaders talk about pay-offs. Transformational leaders talk about goals. Many leaders bargain, whereas transformational leaders appeal to a common vision. Dr Isaac Ojutalayo argues that desperately needed Christians and transformational leadership will not emerge until we have a model of a transforming leader. I believe that Jesus Christ was and is the most effective leader the world has ever known. It is with unreserved joy that I recommend this publication to those who are interested in church leadership. Professor Clinton L. Ryan, ThD
