Walter Scott on Election, pt.1
Episode 465: As mentioned in the previous episode, development must have taken place with Alexander Campbell concerning the doctrine of election. Perusing the archives of the Millennial Harbinger, I found four (4) articles on the subject of election. However, they were not written by Campbell, but by Walter Scott, his right hand man.

After a brief recap of Campbell’s 1817 “Views” essay, I begin working through Scott’s essays on election.
