Free Presbyterian Publications
Two more books are now available, both bound as hardbacks. One is volume 11 of the Free Presbyterian Magazine (480 pages, £18.00); the other is Ministers and Men of the Free Presbyterian Church (240 pages, £12.50). The first contains the usual collection of sermons, devotional and historical articles and contemporary comment which is characteristic of the profitable material Rev James S Sinclair put together when he was Editor of this Magazine. Among its notable features, particularly during its earlier years, was the obituary section, which marked the passing of many fine Christian men and women. Volume 11 has its share of these.
To mark the centenary of the Church in 1993, Mr Roy Middleton gathered together 54 of the obituaries written by Rev Neil Cameron during the course of his ministry, until his death in 1932. Mr Middleton contributed a useful account of Mr Cameron’s life and of the formation of the Free Presbyterian Church, and also edited the entire book. Mr Cameron’s writing provides a clear portrayal of genuine godliness. He himself wrote: “How beautiful they were in their fellowship with one another, and in their godly life and conversation in this evil world! . . . Their hearts and minds were taken up with the truth as it is in Jesus, with the cause of Christ in the world, and with the trials and victories by faith of the Lord’s poor people. There was something heavenly about them which made itself felt by all.”
