The Reformed Quarterly Review 1884 Vol 31 Classic Reprint

Excerpt from The Reformed Quarterly Review, 1884, Vol. 31 After referring to the marked reticence of the New Testament in reference to little children, and quoting an important passage bearing upon the question of their salvation (mark 10 13 the article proceeds to give a succinct historical review of the doctrine held by Augustine and the Roman Church, by the Reformers, but especially by the Calvinistic theologians of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Augustine connected salvation mechanically with the sacrament of baptism, and drew the inference that unbaptized infants were lost, though their punishment was of the mildest sort, -the loss of heaven rather than the torment of hell.

Excerpt from The Reformed Quarterly Review, 1887, Vol. 34 IT has been thought proper to insert the following addresses in this review, because Dr. Nevin was its first editor. The review was called into existence in the early days of the history of our institutions at Mercersburg. The founding of the first college and seminary was an event of great significance for the Reformed Church. It naturally called forth a great deal of interest throughout the church. These institutions were to be come both the centre and exponent of her life and spirit. It soon began to appear that the church had a life as well as a history of its own which could not be a mere copy of any other church.

Excerpt from The Reformed Quarterly Review, 1891, Vol. 38 To say that we opened the book with many misgivings, is to say but little. We had conceived a decided prejudice against the writer. We had gotten the impression that he was a cold and heartless rationalist. A chilly fear stole over os lest we might be doing worse than wasting the time devoted to him. There was reason for this, for as he tells us himself, hints had been thrown out that he was bordering on atheism. One critic had gone so far as to ask him, what would be the title of the book in which he would advocate the doing away with Christ ianity?

Excerpt from The Reformed Quarterly Review, 1892, Vol. 39 The Bible is the Book. This title, which it has acquired for itself the world over, implies that it is unique as compared with all other books. It is the book in a preeminent sense. The first construction that might be put upon this title is, that it is the book containing the record of a religion, the Christian re ligion. AS the Vedas contain the religion of the East, or the Koran the religion of Mohammad, so the Bible is the authority for the religion of Christ.

Excerpt from The Methodist Quarterly Review, Vol. 36: 1884 But, although his studies had been pursued with a design to enter into the holy orders of the ministry, yet upon the very threshold of this work he was startled, horrified, and dis gusted by the necessity he would be under to subscribe to the doctrine of predestination. His conscience in this respect was not so elastic as that of some of our modern ministers who, professing to be Arminians 1n their theology gulp down the whole Calvinistic system without a qualm.

And it is a happy co incidence that this exposition occurs during the present year, during which we of the Reformed Church are celebrating the centennial of our independent existence in this country, when it is particularly fitting that we should give an account of our selves and of our standing as a Christian denomination, both to ourselves and to the religious world around os.
