Synopsis
This book explores the events that led to the disruption of the Presbyterian Church in Canada in connection with the established Church of Scotland. During the Scottish Enlightenment, patronage had increasingly been exercised as a civil right. Despite petitions, this practice remained unchanged until 1834 when the Church of Scotland passed the Veto Act, empowering congregations to vote against unwelcome ministerial candidates. This book covers the heated debate that followed as the General Assembly sought to reverse this decision and parliamentarians, such as Fox Maule, debated the legality of the act. In addition, the author examines the secessionist movement and the arguments made by both those who remained with the established church in Scotland and those who went on to form the Free Church. It also explores the Evangelical and Moderate parties that emerged within the church and their impact on the church's direction during this period of great change.
