Publisher's Synopsis
The Worship and Offices of the Church of Scotland, originally published in 1882, is a comprehensive guide to the liturgical practices and customs of the Church of Scotland. Written by George Washington Sprott, a prominent Scottish theologian and minister, the book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the history of the Church of Scotland, including its origins, development, and key figures. The second part examines the various worship services and liturgical practices of the church, including the sacraments, baptism, communion, and the order of service for Sunday worship. The third part focuses on the offices of the church, including the roles and responsibilities of ministers, elders, and deacons. Throughout the book, Sprott emphasizes the importance of the Bible as the foundation of the church's teachings and practices, and provides detailed explanations of the theological underpinnings of various aspects of the church's worship and offices. The Worship and Offices of the Church of Scotland is an important resource for anyone interested in the history and practices of the Scottish Presbyterian Church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
