Cox and Knox
Nov 3
A letter written to the Bible League Quarterly concerning Richard Cox and John Knox.
Sir: Writers of biography have always to guard themselves against presenting their subject so that he stands in exaggerated contrast to his fellow-beings. Knox, of course, is of great interest to students of the Reformation but in presenting him, John Brentnall has painted some of those around him in too sombre colours. For …
… and shameful to hear his gospel for hirelings. The joke book and Vaudeville has replaced their Bible preaching!
3. Music and Singing
That leads us to another modern church-destroyer, that of orchestrated and instrumentalised singing and musical atmosphere-making performances in worship. Nowadays, there is little affinity between New Testament worship and our own. The Established Church perverted worship with the organ. Spurgeon deplored this but his denomination followed …

… Word for the Right Doctrine
When William Tindale began work on his translation of the Bible around 1525, he found the English language at times most inappropriate for the task. There was very little of what might be called the language of Zion in English as the current Bible was in the Latin words of the Vulgate, of which many monks and priests were as ignorant as the common people. As it was deemed an evil thing by the Roman Catholic hierarchy for the common people to have the …
… at Affirmation 2010 in a good number of Christian magazines and digital publications has moved The Bible League Trust to over-react with an eight point, five-paged rebuttal claiming that all such criticisms are unfounded, ill-conceived, fallacious, confused and indicate a departure from sound teaching. In their condemnation of honest criticism, they sarcastically denigrate the intelligence, integrity and orthodoxy of their critics. Besides choosing to exonerate themselves by ridiculing those …

… Anglicans in anti-Scriptural liberalism, sacramentalism and Pelagianism. Recent studies (Baptist Quarterly 8/2000), show how historically, traditionally and doctrinally, the Baptist Movement is a sacramental system and therefore Liberal and Pelagian. Most Baptists view their major rite as being a declaration of what the sinner performs rather than what God does. General Baptists abound in Arminianism; Reformed, Strict, Grace and Particular Baptists are riddled with Baxterism, Amyraldianism …
… less dependent on Scripture, we tend to look for historical roots for our support. So many once Bible-believing churches who scorned tradition are now looking to the past to prove their validity as churches via historical succession and inherited authority. This is not only true of Rome but of an increasing number of former nonconformist denominations. My recent reading has shown Christians looking back to the Albigensians, to the Waldensians, to the Lollards, to the Celtic Christians, to …

… and Henderson’s Radicalism and that scandalously intolerant, anti-Christian Solemn League and Covenant with its Trent-long anathema-list of punishments for non-acceptance. Mercifully, the Assembly’s seditious Counter-Reformation bubble burst but Cromwell’s equally evil purge of Presbyterianism began. Though Cromwell diplomatically rejected the crown, he was given full royal powers by the ravaged Rump Parliament which fostered his megalomania and imagined eschatological …

The totalitarian manifesto of the Solemn League and Covenant
The Scottish Presbyterians furthermore, through their Solemn League and Covenant, sought to enforce a reign of terror and totalitarianism on the British people which was fully akin to Marian Roman Catholic terrors in the century before. They preached and passed through Parliament that the mighty Scottish armies, trained in the Continental Thirty Years’ War were …
