John Anderson (13) (1767–1835)

ANDERSON, JOHN, The Scripture Doctrine of the Appropriation Which is in the Nature of Saving Faith, Stated and Illustrated; in Several Discourses (1793, 1849) (Cerlox Bound Photocopy Series. Edmonton, AB, Canada: Still Waters Revival Books).
" `The following sermons,' writes Robertson, `appear to me the best I have every seen on the subject; and I have authority to declare, that this is the judgement of several ministers, of very respectable character, in the religious society to which I show more belong; and also of several others of different denominations, whose acknowledged reputation, and attachment to the interests of religion, would be a powerful recommendation of these Discourses to the perusal of their Christian friends and connections, both in North and South Britain.' Foundational teaching on salvation and righteousness for which the author declares, `The faith which is described in the ensuing Sermons, prevailed in the hearts of the patriarches and prophets, martyrs and confessors, by which they subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises; it is that faith which leads the soul directly to Christ, as offered in the promise of the gospel, without waiting for any previous qualifications, and to improve him for sanctification as well as justification, by looking unto him for all the endowments necessary thereunto.' Very pertinent to the `free offer' controversy and all Calvinist evangelistic endeavors. Fourth American edition, 180 pages." -- SWRB
