Description
Excerpt from The Fiend of the Reformation Detected: Part I., The Two Sophisms Detected, Which Have Split the Reformers Into Calvinists, Arminians, Redemptional Universalists, &C., Part II., A Brief Review of the Present State of the Reformed Churches, Their Controversies Sermons Theological Seminaries
In the year 1814, the Rev. James M'Chord, of Lexington in Kentucky, published a book denominated the Body of Christ; the object of which was, to exhibit a new theory of Christ's representative character in the covenant of grace, and of Adam's Representative character in the covenant of works; and to demonstrate the beneficial practical results of that theory. Neither the theory, nor what Mr. M'Chord deduced from it under the name of practical results, were satisfactory to the Associate Reformed Presbytery of Kentucky, of which Mr. M'Chord was a member: so great was their displeasure with Mr. M'Chord's publication, that they preferred a libel against him, containing charges against both the theory, and the results, imputed to it, by its author; which bears date, Lexington, Oct. 13th, 1815. Under this libel Mr. M'Chord was eventually found guilty, and deposed from the office of the holy ministry. He protested against the sentence, and appealed to the General Synod.
