It does not seek to set a remit for our future Bishop, but indicates to the Candidates, the Provincial Panel and the Diocesan Electors a requirement for mutual discernment on the key aspects of the nature and purpose of episcopacy, as understood within the whole church but with particular reference to the Scottish tradition, accepting that discernment involves a step of faith enabling us to conceive something that God will bring about, which is not yet objectively visible. Each is looking for the direction where God is leading – a path on which we are being invited to set foot together. In order that there is some cohesion, as we journey together, what is offered here are the markers or signposts gathered from a rich tradition of theological reflection. Suggestions for further reading are found at the end of this section. 1. We seek a bishop as both local and universal through the College of Bishops and the universal church. We are not seeking a bishop for Glasgow and Galloway alone, but for the whole Church. 2. All authority in the Church is exercised in conformity with the mind and example of Christ. Episcopal authority is not of the individual or arbitrary, but, within the sensus fidelium is given to one person over the freedom of others. 3. A bishop is the primary guardian of the Apostolic and Catholic tradition of the Church, which is a channel of the love of God and must be constantly sought anew and refreshed in prayer and study - in which a bishop leads the Church. 4. A bishop and the synodical nature of the local church complement one another. In accordance with the canons, a bishop calls the Synod whose nature and model is framed by the Eucharist. It is through the Eucharist at which a bishop presides that the Synod seeks to discern the will of God in its mission. 5. A bishop’s leadership is a ‘sign’ of God’s own leadership of ministry and mission from within the Church. The identity of the Church is secured by leading from the centre, in collaboration with all who follow and with Episcopal colleagues, modelling Christian discipleship by ministry of Word and Sacrament. A bishop ensures that Word and Sacrament constantly inform one another by the role of teaching and preaching. 6. It is a ‘theological’ ministry, guiding the thinking and action of the Church. A bishop must have the wisdom to discern, and clarify, whatever is authentic and fruitful for the life of the Church, provided for within the contribution of theological reflection. A bishop need not be a professional theologian but ought to be able to articulate the questions of faith, illuminate the liturgy, and teach the Apostolic tradition. 7. Although a bishop may not necessarily be in the professional sense a theologian, it is a bishop’s calling to encourage, reflect upon and draw together the theological reflection of God’s Church as this underlies all of its moral, intellectual and spiritual life. A bishop is thus a teacher and a counsellor before being a manager or administrator, and a teacher 3 Diocesan Description 2018 United Diocese of Glasgow and Galloway who speaks from the traditions of the Catholic and Apostolic Church. Though this is often actually not the case, the discourse and debates of the Church in Synod and at every level must be driven by a prayerful and informed theological leadership rather than one driven by business models or political expediency. There are times when such leadership may not be popular or convenient. So be it. 8. Bishops are called to ‘oversee and care’ for the Church in succession to the apostles who were sent out by Christ, and this is effective only when they are found to be ‘people under authority attentive to the Holy Spirit who leads us into all truth’. The spiritual practice of a bishop is vital for it is an energising, imaginative and inventive focal point, preparing a leadership which has at its core the work of prayer, of common worship, of study of scripture, and the ability to articulate praise in a variety of ways. 9. The Scottish Episcopal Church (SEC) has a remarkable vitality that it often fails to recognise in itself and communicate to wider society. Scottish bishops do not have the burden of establishment and government of Anglican bishops in England. This freedom is important and gives a bishop and the College of Bishops an important voice within the spiritual life of Scotland. The role is essential in asking what God is calling us to be in the condition in which He has set us. A bishop is the key to articulating this calling. Episcopacy has a radical missionary dimension ̶ a ministry of proclamation of the Gospel to those both inside and outside the community of the faithful. 10. A community with much life will have many leaders, and needs them all; but it needs just one bishop, to help the leaders work with one another. This requires personal skill, and the associated gifts, to recognise the need for consultation, and negotiation, allowing all to feel connected to the intention and purpose of hearing God’s call to unity.

THE anthropomorphic habit of thought manifested in the polytheism of the Greeks and the mono- theism of the early Jews has been responsible, one supposes, for the familiar expression, "the body politic." But if the capital of a country be regarded as its head, there are few large states which have answered con- sistently to the anthropomorphic image.

Richard Torrance and Other unidentified members of the Society Copyright The Scottish Genealogy Society 2007 The Scottish Genealogy Society Library & Family History Centre 15 Victoria Terrace Edinburgh EH1 2JL Tel: 0131 220 3677 http://www.scotsgenealogy.com SCOTTISH GENEALOGIST Index Volumes 1-52 1953-2005 INTRODUCTION Over the existence of the Scottish Genealogy Society indexes to the Scottish Genealogist have been published at regular intervals and distributed to those who were members of the Society at the time of publication. The index to the first 28 volumes was one large index with no sub-divisions. As a great number of queries were published it was decided to include these in a section of their own from volume 29 onwards. From volume 41 the index was split into the following sections: General index; Article Titles; Contributors; Reviews; Work in Progress; Queries. A separate section for Illustrations was included in the index for volumes 45-52. NUMBERING There has not been uniformity in the numbering format used by the different compilers of the indexes. A volume covers one year during which 4 journals were issued usually in March, June, September and December. In the current index these have been harmonised to follow the most commonly used pattern: Volume number - Roman numerals capitals Journal number - Roman numerals lower case Page number - Arabic numerals Example: XXXIX.iv.116 -Volume 39, December issue, page 116. Page numbering Page numbering in the journals has not been consistent over the years.
