Does every Christian have a right and title to choose, according to the dictates of his conscience, what it is he shall believe and practice before God? Or does the Word of God, as contained in the Old and New Testaments of the Bible, have the first and final word?These and many other questions of a similar nature are addressed in this book Conscience, Liberty and God's Word (previously titled A Free Disputation Against Pretended Liberty of Conscience). Penned in 1649, it is the most comprehensive treatment of the relation between conscience and Word of God the world has known. The name of its author, Samuel Rutherford, may well speak for itself. Known and confirmed throughout the centuries since his life and death as one of the brightest ministers of the gospel Christ has given to his church upon earth, his books, treatises and sermons are read and loved by faithful Christians everywhere.
