Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Presbyterian Quarterly and Princeton Review, Vol. 5: July, 1876
Covenant were discussed, was Church Government, Directory of Public Worship, Confession of Faith, and a Catechism. We say general order, because all of them were under considera tion, if not, discussion, simultaneously. The four-fold chord, which was to bind the three kingdoms in peace and uniformity, was not separately woven in its several strands, and then formed into one - it began as one. Our standards in their sev eral parts grew side by side some, indeed, outgrew others, and came to an earlier maturity, but whether in the blade, or in the bloom, or in the ripe fruit, there was one and the same life moving in all the parts all the time, and they are one organ ically and not mechanically. In the first days of the Minutes with which we are now concerned, it is ordered to report the preface to the Directory and concerning the Sabbath-day. The discussion on the Directory continued till Dec. 30, 1644, when it was ordered that the appendix be sent up to-morrow.
