EDWAKD IKVING. rj IHE career of Edward Irving, of London, in the earlier part JL of last century, is perhaps well-nigh forgotten. Mention “ ” of the gift of tongues, and of his followers, the Irvingites, who afterward developed into what is now known as the Catholic Apostolic Church, may serve to recall this once world-wide celeb- rity. His sad career has its features of instruction and warning not unsuited to the present day. Irving was born in the small rural town of Annan, in Scotland, in the year 1792. He was of respectable and pious origin. His father was a tanner. On his mother’s side he bore connection with a family of note in the locality. As a boy he was preco- cious mentally, and well endowed. At thirteen years of age he entered the University of Edinburgh and graduated in his eigh- teenth year. He at once set himself to the work of teaching, and became a tutor in Haddington. This was a temporary calling, as he proposed later to enter the ministry. Among his pupils at Haddington was the young girl, Jane Welsh, afterward the wife of Thomas Carlyle. This relation as tutor and young pupil grew into a lifelong friendship. With Carlyle himself, too, he main- tained a cordial intimacy from that time. Companionship and association were afterward interrupted, but they remained friends on a familiar footing until death divided them, and one of Car- lyle’s sketches in his Essays is a pathetic tribute to his early Scotch friend, while in his Reminiscences he speaks of him at yet greater length. At this time Irving was a robust young man, of kindly spirit. 1 -i THE PRISCETOI^ THE OL 0 GICAL RE VIE n of erect and vigorous frame, and like young David, the son of Jesse, “ ruddy and withal of a beautiful countenance and goodly to look; to and like King Saul, too, in his towering stature. He was accounted very handsome in all physical features with the one defect of an unfortunate squint, being violently cross-eyed.* As an instance of his strong physical life, coupled wdth his intellectual avidity, Ave are told that after dismission of his school one eyening he Avalked from Haddington to Edinburgh, a distance of eighteen miles, to hear Dr. Chalmers preach, and back again the same night, appearing fresh and alert for his school Avork in the morning. Even in this early period, Avhile yet in normal mental tone, he was fond of subtle speculations and of broaching fanciful opinions, which subjected him to officious hintings that as a prospective divinity student he might find more profitable subjects.

  • Tlo£Fo9l)J> in Sunni THEOLOGY
    A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF BIBLE OF BARNABAS AND FOUR TRADITIONAL GOSPELS ABSTRACT THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF Bottor of $()tlo£fo9l)j> IN SUNNi THEOLOGY BY SALILA MAHAMAD Under the Supervision of DR. ABDUL KHALIQUE DEPARTMENT OF SUNNI THEOLOGY ALIGARH MUSLIIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 2009 ABSTRACT A Comparative Study of Bible of Barnabas and Four Traditional Gospels Today, there are three major religions on the earth that believe in the existence of a single God or Creator: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. The followers of the two great religions in the world, that is,Christianity arid Islam, have two books that are supposed to be "the words of God." The-holy book of the" Christians is the Bible, Kitab-i muqaddas (holy book). This book consists of two main parts: Old Testament, namely the Torah (Tawrat) Tlie Nebeim and the Khetubeim, and the New Testament, the Injils (The Gospels Acts of Apostles, the Letters of Disciples, or Missionaries to churches communities. Individuals and the Revelation). The holy book of the Muslims is the Holy Qur'an al-karim. The Bible is the Holy Book of the Jews and the Christians while the Old Testament belong to Jews, the New Testament belong to Christians. However, Christian believe on accept both the Old Testament and New Testament as divine, but the Jews reject the New Testament, which was written and collected after the death of Jesus Christ (PBUH) by Jewish apostles turned to Christianity. In the New Testament, there are Four Traditional Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John) which are generally accepted by Christians but there is one, the Gospel of Barnabas, which is not accepted by most of Christians, because the Gospel of Barnabas was traced after the Four Traditional Gospels and there are many things not same and opposed to the Four Traditional Gospels.

  • The Church History of Eusebius. the Rev. Arthur
    The Church History of Eusebius. THE CHURCH HISTORY OF EUSEBIUS. ———————————— vii TRANSLATED WITH PROLEGOMENA AND NOTES by THE REV. ARTHUR CUSHMAN McGIFFERT, Ph.D. PROFESSOR OF CHURCH HISTORY IN LANE THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY, CINCINNATI 3 Preface. Preface. ———————————— ix The present translation of the Church History of Eusebius has been made from Hein- ichen’s second edition of the Greek text, but variant readings have been adopted without hesitation whenever they have approved themselves to my judgment. In all such cases the variation from Heinichen’s text has been indicated in the notes. A simple revision of Crusè’s English version was originally proposed, but a brief examination of it was sufficient to convince me that a satisfactory revision would be an almost hopeless task, and that nothing short of a new and independent translation ought to be undertaken. In the preparation of that translation, invaluable assistance has been rendered by my father, the Rev. Joseph N. McGiffert, D.D., for whose help and counsel I desire thus publicly to give expression to my profound gratitude. The entire translation has been examined by him and owes much to his timely suggestions and criticisms; while the translation itself of a considerable portion of the work (Bks. V.–VIII. and the Martyrs of Palestine) is from his hand. The part thus rendered by him I have carefully revised for the purpose of securing uniformity in style and expression throughout the entire work, and I therefore hold myself alone responsible for it as well as for the earlier and later books. As to the principle upon which the translation has been made, little need be said.

  • Prestige of the Bishop in Eusebius' Ecclesiastical History
    PRESTIGE OF THE BISHOP IN EUSEBIUS' ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY CRAIG W. C. GINN BRS Theology, Mennonite Brethren Bible College, 1985 BA Religious Studies, University of Lethbridge, 1997 A Thesis Submitted to the Council on Graduate Studies of the University of Lethbridge in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree MASTER OF ARTS LETHBRIDGE, ALBERTA February 8,1999 © Craig W\ C. Ginn, 1999 Abstract The Ecclesiastical History is the primary historical source of the Christian Church in the pre-Constantinian era. The History narrates the nature and work of Christ, the highlights of the apostolic age and the advancement of the Christian Church in the Roman Empire up to the principate of Constantine. Investigating the Ecclesiastical History using a quantitative method reveals Eusebius' preoccupation with the office of the bishop. There is almost no subject that Eusebius addresses that does not reflect his portrayal of the bishop's influence and universal presence. This thesis demonstrates the high status and undisputed authority of the episcopate as presented by Eusebius of Caesarea. The research of this thesis contributes to an understanding of the bishop in Roman society before Imperial favour. t Acknowledgements The last two years of study in early Church history have been a rare opportunity for learning. I am humbled by the way that others have invested of their expertise, time and energy: Kathy Schrage for her administrative oversight to the MA program with uncontested cheerfulness and competence. Chariene Sawatsky for taking my graduate program in stride in the midst of keeping the history department running smoothly. My supervisory committee who kept my work accountable to objectivity and clarity - Jim Tagg, Malcolm Greenshields and Rene Boere.
