Catechising has lost its appeal today. Many churches and families, even Christian families, have dispensed with it. Rutherford's Catechism is ideal for family or church use. His answers are often pithy, suggestive and always Biblical. The catechism forms a compact Body of Divinity, a little primer of theology. Catechising is an excellent way to teach children beliefs. Rutherford knew its value and was careful to catechise his flock regularly in order to bring them to maturity and understanding in the things of Christ. - Publisher.
This study examines the changes which took place in the understanding of 'religion' and 'the religions' during the Enlightenment in England, the period when the decisive break with Patristic, Medieval and Renaissance notions of religion occurred. Dr Harrison's view is that the principles of the English Enlightenment not only made a special contribution to our modern understanding of what religion is, but they pioneered, in addition, the 'scientific', or non-religious approach, to religious phenomena. During this period a crisis of authority in the Church necessitated a rational enquiry into the various forms of Christianity, and in addition, into the claims of all religions. This led to a concept of 'religion' (based on 'natural' theology) which could link together the apparently disparate religious beliefs and practices found in the empirical religions.
