About this book
Faith, forgiveness and the examination of conscience run through Hugh Binning's collected sermons and religious writings. The volume brings together a practical catechism, forty sermons on the eighth chapter of Romans, discussions of fellowship with God and a treatise on Christian love. An account of Binning's life and an editor's preface place these works alongside the divisions of seventeenth-century Scotland, where he served as minister of Govan.
In the sermons, biblical passages lead into close arguments about belief and conduct. Binning distinguishes seeking pardon from seeking a changed heart, then turns to the difficulty of knowing oneself. Readers interested in Presbyterian thought can follow how Binning connects doctrine with inward reflection and everyday moral responsibility. The collection also offers historical context for the relationship between religious conviction and public disputes during his short life.
