Battle for the Church (1517-1644) by David Gay

Disobeying the Golden Rule

     I must admit that I turned to David Gay’s new book on the period between “the break with Rome and the rise of the Particular Baptists” with some reserve, knowing that the author has antagonised many by his anti-Trinitarian claim that the Son and the Father had contradictory wills, reflected by irreconcilable contradictions in the Scriptures. My reservations proved to be justified. I have seldom read such a disturbing …

The Free Offer: Biblical and Reformed By David Silversides

The Free Offer: Biblical and Reformed

By David Silversides

Marpet Press, 2005

     Yet another former sturdy defender of the faith now endorses a deceitful gospel which outclasses the errors of older Liberalism. David Silversides has joined such modern apostles as John and Iain Murray, Malcolm H. Watts, Phillip R. Johnson, Errol Hulse, David Gay and Ken Stebbins in their campaign to alter radically the Christian’s view of …

… and pleading with them to believe, that has been my calling since I was a teen-ager!

     David Gay is no doubt a better Calvinist than I am but this is missing the point. Gay’s critical, psychological evaluation of the Trinity and the Word of God make it, I believe, impossible for him to grasp the full height, width and depth of the glorious gospel of salvation. My point is that though Gay would preach the gospel to all, and is to be recommended for his zeal, his mistaken theology …

The Banner of Truth Trust and Antitrinitarianism

… with the works of a number of modern nominal Reformed men in memory, such as those of John Murray, David Gay, K. W. Stebbins who are claiming that their neo-nomenclature of the Trinity is a step back to the true Reformed faith. They thus strive to bamboozle us with talk of the different wills, delights, pleasures, desires within the Trinity so that the Godhead is presented as a chaos of confusion. The only conclusion one can draw from this is that these critics of the Trinity wish to …

Clifford’s New Reformation

… his god of contradictory wills. Those who follow Clifford’s debate with fellow Anti-Trinitarian David Gay notice that their problem is ‘Which of their god’s will did Christ die under?’ May God save us from such confused false teaching concerning He who justifiably sanctifies!

Luke 17:10. ↩

Hawker’s Guidebooks to Zion

… in the logical harmony of Scripture in bringing this salvation home to the sinner, such writers as David Gay are tearing the churches apart and actually boasting that such disunity fosters church growth! What has Hawker to say to these modern contenders for forked paths to heaven? His readers will find that his message is a God-given antidote to this modern plague.

     Hawker was confronted with the very same heresy in his day. This prompted him to write on the Trinity. His opponents …

Anglicans and Presbyterians

… with them. However, it is fashionable to denigrate the Tudors and Stuarts and, as Hanko and Gay, and pronounce Anglican Reformers guilty by association. This argument would weigh equally on the Continentals who were patronised by the like-questionable Prince Maurice. Dutch Presbyterianism was the seat of Arminianism and it cannot be doubted that in 1619 the English Reformation was in better shape.

     The Dutch told Carleton re Episcopacy:

“they did much honour and reverence …
