A brief overview of the major works on the offices in the Scottish
Presbyterian Church to-date reveals that there is a need for a
comprehensive historical and theological study on the Presbyterian
offices, which this work intends to provide. Chapter one gives
attention to contemporary documents expressing the views of the
Scottish reformers on the ministry in the local congregation. The
second chapter deals with the question present at the beginning of
the reformation: who represented Christ - the bishop or the
Presbyter? The third chapter considers how the documents of the
Westminster Assembly of Divines determined the future courses of
Scottish Presbyterian ecclesiology. The following chapters analyse
the development of the offices within the context of the
established Presbyterian Church, providing an overview of the role
and functions of the offices of the minister, elder and deacon in
Scottish Presbyterianism. Finally the study considers the
involvement of the Church of Scotland in twentieth century
ecumenical discussions.
