  • T. F. Torrance on the Centenary of His Birth: a Biographical and Theological Synopsis with Some Personal Reminiscences
    T. F. TORRANCE ON THE CENTENARY OF HIS BIRTH: A BIOGRAPHICAL AND THEOLOGICAL SYNOPSIS WITH SOME PERSONAL REMINISCENCES Thomas A. Noble, PhD Professor of Theology, Nazarene Theological Seminary Senior Research Fellow in Theology, Nazarene Theological College, Manchester [email protected] Abstract: Given as a lecture at the meeting of the T. F. Torrance Theological Fellowship on 21st November, 2013, this paper celebrates the centenary of Torrance’s birth. It begins with the world into which he was born and the ethos of the evangelical missionary movement to which his family belonged. Major aspects of his thinking are considered against his biographical background as they became prominent in the development of his theology: the Reformed tradition and his ecumenical endeavours, his profound analysis of the scientic metho of theolog in relation to the natural sciences his focus on the Incarnation and the Atonement, his engagement with the Greek Fathers, and his place in the Trinitarian revival. The review of Torrance’s thought is interspersed with personal reminiscences from several years as Torrance’s student at New College, Edinburgh in the 1970s and from later contact. To return in thought to 1913, the year in which T. F. Torrance was born, is to return to another world. The German Kaiser, the Austrian Kaiser, the Czar of all the Russias, and the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire all still ruled – not to mention his Britannic Majesty, King George V, Emperor of India, presiding over the largest empire the world had ever seen. His Royal Navy dominated the oceans of the world and had been instrumental in abolishing piracy and the slave trade for ever (or so it was thought).

  • Rothesay Brass Band – Entertaining the Excursionists Fresh Off the Paddle-Steamers on the Isle of Bute
    Rothesay Brass Band – entertaining the excursionists fresh off the paddle-steamers on the Isle of Bute Gavin Holman, 24 February 2021 Rothesay is the main town on the Isle of Bute. It was a burgh of barony from an early period, and it became a Royal Burgh in 1400 by a charter from Robert III of Scotland. In the mid-1800’s it developed as a seaside resort, with all the features and facilities expected of such places. Sitting on an attractive bay, it quickly became popular with visitors from Glasgow and around, which having made the rail journey to Wemyss Bay, took one of the paddle-steamers across to Bute for their excursions to Rothesay, or perhaps they went "doon the watter" [the Clyde] with ships that went direct from Glasgow. Rothesay was also the location of one of Scotland's many hydropathic establishments during the 19th century boom years of the Hydropathy movement. The town also, later, had an electric tramway - the Rothesay and Ettrick Bay Light Railway - which stretched across the island to one of its largest beaches. As the town developed its tourist trade, the need for musical entertainment became clear, and a series of professional bands were engaged to supply this to the visitors in the summer months. In 1873 a bandstand was erected on the Esplanade (which would stand for nearly 40 years until being replaced in 1911) and bands would perform there on afternoons and evenings. The bandstand was gifted by Thomas Russell, who owned the large Saracen Iron Foundry in Glasgow, and who was born in Rothesay.

  • Evangelicalism in Modern Scotland
    EVANGELICALISM IN MODERN SCOTLAND D.W. BEBBINGTON, UNIVERSITY OF STIRLING Evangelicals can usefully be defined in terms of four characteristics. First, they are conversionist, believing that lives need to be changed by the gospel. Secondly, they are activist, holding that Christians must spread the gospel. Thirdly, they are biblicist, seeing the Bible as the authoritative source of the gospel. Fourthly, they are crucicentric in their beliefs, recognising in the atonement the focus of the gospel. Three of these four defining qualities marked Protestants in Scotland, as elsewhere, from the Reformation onwards. They were conversionist, biblicist and crucicentric. Seventeenth-century Protestants, however, were not activist in the manner of later Evangelicals. Typically they wrestled with doubts and fears about their own salvation rather than confidently announcing the way of salvation to those outside their sphere. Hence, for instance, there was a remarkable paucity of Protestant missionary work during the seventeenth century. But from the eighteenth century onwards an Evangelical movement sprang into existence in Scotland and elsewhere in the English-speaking world. Its activism marked it out from the Protestant tradition that had preceded it. Evangelicalism was a creation of the eighteenth century. The customary view of the Church of Scotland in the eighteenth century divides it into two parties. The Moderates are usually described as liberal in theology, scholarly in disposition and strongly attached to patronage. The Popular Party is held to have been conservative in theology, unfavourable to contemporary learning and opposed to patronage. Increasingly, however, it has become apparent that the model does not correspond with reality. Some ministers who were theologically conservative nevertheless favoured patronage.

  • Theology in Transposition Know His Theology Is to Know Him, and Vice Versa
    1 Who Is Thomas Forsyth Torrance? Professor Thomas Forsyth Torrance—TF to his students (to distinguish him from his brother JB), or Tom to those who knew him—was a towering figure in twentieth century theology. His prodigious literary output, translation work, edited volumes, international speaking engagements, and ecclesiastical and ecumenical endeavors cast a huge influence over theology and theologians working with him, against him, and after him. Now in the twenty-first century the impact of his work is still being felt as PhDs are completed on his work, monographs roll off the presses detailing and critiquing aspects of his theology, and societies and even entire denominations are established to disseminate central features of his thought.1 Clearly, the theology of Thomas Torrance, his method and content, continues to be of interest today, and for good reason. To introduce Torrance (1913–2007), a full biography of the man and his life is not in order. Alister McGrath has done an admirable job in providing the interested reader with an intellectual biography.2 However, given Torrance’s axiom that to know God we must know God in God’s act and being, it seems appropriate to apply the same methodology to our exploration of Torrance: to 1. I am referring specifically to the Thomas Torrance Theological Fellowship and its theological journal, , and Grace Communion International, formerly the Worldwide Church of God, Participatio which has adopted Torrance’s Trinitarian theology as the basis of its own theological trajectory. 2.
