The Eagle 1895 (Easter) Easter Term 1895 NOTES FROM THE COLLEGE RECORDS. (Colltinuedfrom p. 346.) R John Tayler, from whose correspondence we select a few letters, was Master of St IID 38 to John's from July 15 1546. He was originally of Queens' College (B.A. 1523-4). He was learned, eminently pious and greatly esteemed as a preacher, and was one of the Compilers of the Book of Common Prayer. But his reign in St John's was neither a peaceful nor a happy one. Baker's account of the matter is not very easy to understand. The majority of the Fellows were not satisfied with the justice of Tayler's rule. Dr Tayler became Rector of St Peter's, Cornhill, in London in 1536, and the fo llowing letter from Edmund Bonner, Bishop of London, gives a curious glimpse of that prelate acting as tax collector to Henry VIII.

Gr&ttdLiY Guinness, D.D. Fellobv R^oyal ^/islronomical *S ociety DR. H. GRATTAN GUINNESS'S works on prophecy are widely known. This is a graphic story of the gradual unveiling of the meaning of the Apocalypse in the light of the events of history. It traces this development through eighteen centuries, from the days of the apostolic and martyr Church to those of the mediaeval Church, the Reformed Church, and the Church of modern times. It is a history of the gradual evolution during eighteen centuries, under the influence of historical facts, of that system of interpretation which has commended itself to the most temperate and enlightened minds, including those of Sir Isaac Newton, and Jonathan Edwards in his history of Redemption, as in harmony with the Word and Providence of God. The work is the outcome of many years of study, and is written in a clear and attractive style. FLEMING H. REVELL COMPANY JVetv JJoHf 158 Fifth Aue. Chicago: 80-82 W abash A-Ve.

  • Catalogues, Shelf Marks and Other Evidence for the History of the Collection 1785-1952
    LAMBETH PALACE LIBRARY: CATALOGUES, SHELF MARKS AND OTHER EVIDENCE FOR THE HISTORY OF THE COLLECTION 1785-1952 This guide to sources for the history of the Library continues from the previous guide which covered the years from the foundation of the Library in 1610 to the death of the long-serving Lambeth Librarian, Andrew Coltee Ducarel, in 1785. PART A: 1785-1862 The Library under Archbishops Moore and Manners-Sutton, 1785-1828 In the years from 1785 to 1828 the Library was under the direction first of John Moore (Archbishop 1783-1805) and then of Charles Manners-Sutton (Archbishop 1805-28). Amongst the principal developments in this period were the accession of a substantial collection of pamphlets in, or soon after, 1802, and the gift by Archbishop Manners-Sutton of the Carlyle Greek manuscripts as well as a significant collection of Bibles and other printed books and manuscripts. During this period the Library continued to be housed in the building constructed for Archbishop Sheldon in the 1660s around the four sides of the cloister court at Lambeth Palace. Engravings published in 1806 provide an external view of the north, east and west sides overlooking the cloister court, and an interior view of the north and east galleries on the lower floor of the Library showing the shelving and Library furniture. See E.W. Brayley and W. Herbert, A Concise Account ... of Lambeth Palace (London, 1806), plates following pp. 20, 60. During the primacy of Manners-Sutton, however, there was some re-arrangement of the two rooms on the upper floor which housed the Manuscripts Library.

  • The President's Page
    Journal of the Adventist Theological Society, 9/1-2 (1998): 1. Article copyright © 2000 by Norman R. Gulley. The PresidentÕs Page Norman R. Gulley, President Adventist Theological Society The 1998 double issue of JATS you hold in your hands contains some of the best papers and addresses from the 1998 Jerusalem Bible Conference, all peer- reviewed by two or more referees. Those who were there will never forget that wonderful week, but memories of papers heard is fleeting. Now all subscribers can read the complete versions, including notes. Many are groundbreaking. All are useful and interesting. May you be blessed as you study. I’m pleased to welcome Ed Christian as the new editor of JATS. He was elected managing editor in Jerusalem and brought the 1997 double issue on Revelation to completion. Last summer, following Frank Holbrook’s retire- ment, he was elected editor. Like C. S. Lewis before him, he is an English pro- fessor by occupation who brings that literary training to his teaching and writing about the Bible, approaching it, as it were, on its unprotected flank rather than head on through the usual well-armored medium of seminary studies. I think you’ll find that, also like Lewis, he helps us see the Word in fresh ways. I’m also pleased to welcome two new associate editors on whom Dr. Chris- tian will be leaning for technical and theological expertise: William Shea, re- cently retired from the Biblical Research institute, and Roy Gane, Old Testament professor at the SDA Theological Seminary at Andrews and also associate editor of AUSS.

  • Part 2: the Iconoclast Controversy and The
    HISTORY OF THE PAULICIAN ICONOCLASTS Part 2: The Paulicians Falsely Labeled ‘Heretics’ "They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service." By Rand Winburn n Part One we examined the beginnings of idolatry in the visible Christian I Church. The eighth century was particularly tumultuous, due to the wars waged between the idolaters and the image breaking iconoclasts. A. D. 787 proved to be a watershed prophetic date, whereby image worship, a mark of the Beast, (Rev. 13:14), became a visible mark of false Christianity, as instituted by Nicene Council II. The apostate Eastern Orthodox Church holds to this council's dictates to this day, proving their genealogy to also be from that of the serpent. It is at this juncture that the writer wishes to digress slightly by answering a question which was posed to one of our readers recently: Of what import is knowledge of the past, particularly the crimes of the Roman Catholic Church, to us today? Why not concentrate on the present and forget the past? 'Forgive and forget,' they say. Why dredge up bad memories? Why We Must Never Forget the Past Crimes of the Catholic Church (1) The Lord wills we remember, otherwise He would never have detailed the crimes of the Roman Catholic Church and her papal Antichrist in Scripture. In the Revelation, chapters 9, 11, 13, 17 and 18, for example, our just and holy God has given us this written record, beforehand, which will never pass away.

  • Data Collected on C.I. Scofield
    The GOSPEL TRUTH ANALYZING Scofield http://www.gospeltruth.net/scofield.htm WHY WE PUBLISHED THIS BOOK After sixty-five years of ordained ministry and studying and teaching the Scriptures around the world, I am convinced that C. I. Scofield was taken in by an immense deception that he unwittingly believed and included in his Bible notes to the detriment of all who believe in them. If the Church is to be built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets with Jesus Christ the Chief Cornerstone, then the presumptions and errors of the Scofield Reference Bible must be exposed. We are not his judge. But concerning the Scriptures, we are compelled to judge, 1Th 5:21. We are publishing this booklet that others might be able to know the facts as we have found them to be. C.G.W. INTRODUCTION It is incredible that only one book has been written about one of the most influential men in Evangelical history. That book is "The Life Story of C. I. Scofield" by Charles Trumbull, Oxford University Press, New York, 1920. In 1960, William BeVier, a Master's student at Southern Methodist University, completed a thesis, "A Biographical Sketch of C. I. Scofield." This has not been published, but it is found in some Evangelical school libraries and contains important information. In 1942-43, the late Arno Gaebelein wrote a series of articles for Moody Monthly, "The Story of the Scofield Reference Bible." Until 1984, these were the only sources offered by Evangelicals for material on the life and credentials of their most prominent Bible teacher whose notes have influenced the church and changed its direction.

  • John A. Oddy, "Bicheno and Tyso on the Prophecies: a Baptist
    BICHENO AND TYSO ON THE PROPHECIES 81 A Baptist Generation Gap APOCALYPTIC EUROPE Inquiring visitors to Ickworth House, the magnificent National Trust mansion near Bury St Edmunds, will learn that its unusual shape - a large central rotunda from which branch out two curving corridors, each terminating in a wing - was dictated by its designer's desire to live in the rotunda and display his art treasures in the galleries formed by the corridors and wings. He was Frederick Augustus Hervey, fourth Earl of Bristol and the Bishop of Derry. Unconventional (who else would award beneficei to the winners of a curates' race along the sands?), popular with both Irish Romanists and Presbyterians, admired as a continental traveller (think of those Hotels Bristol named in his honour), immensely opulent, superbly tasteful, he was one of the eminent persons captured in 1798 when a French Revolutionary army occupied Rome. Though freed, he lost £20,000 worth of treasures he had collected. I Another, even more eminent, person taken was the aged and troubled Pope Pius VI. He, dragged from place to place in Italy and then over the Alps to France, lost his life, dying at Valence the next year .. An army's seizure of the Pope would be astonishing news even today, but in 1798 many people saw it as literally apocalyptical, and with good reason. ' For the Pope's seizure was part of the extraordinary series of events seen since 1789, a series comparable in magnitude with the Reformation and having a conspicuous religious dimension. France, the Roman Catholic superpower, persecutor of Protestants and a threat to Protestant Britain, had been overtaken by revolution.
