After the Reformation, the Marrow Controversy of the eighteenth century is noted as one of the most significant and defining events in the Scottish church. However, until now, there has not been a serious analysis of the theology of the Marrow Men as it relates to churches in Scotland during the aftermath of the controversy. In this important study, William vanDoodewaard identifies characteristic understandings of Marrow theology on the atonement, saving faith, and the free offer of the gospel and traces them out in the theology of the Seceder tradition. In doing so, he presents substantial evidence for the continuity of Marrow theology in the Associate Presbytery and Associate Synod in Scotland during the eighteenth century. He ably demonstrates that while Marrow theology was not the primary cause of the Secession churches, the Seceders were aware of the significance of Marrow theology and consciously made it an integral part of their churches.

“I warmly welcome The Marrow Controversy and Seceder Tradition, a fine piece of academic research. Dr. William VanDoodewaard provides us with a careful study of The Marrow’s influence, with an even-handed and judicious treatment of the issues and personalities involved in the Marrow controversy. An added bonus is the effective way he has woven into his narrative the teaching of leading but now forgotten ministers and theologians in the Scottish Secession tradition. I hope it will encourage theological students and ministers to wrestle with the issues involved in the Marrow controversy. If they do, they may well find, as Thomas Boston did, that the exercise adds a special ‘tincture’ to their preaching of the gospel.” Sincalir B. Ferguson, First Presbyterian Church
