Before we get into the series of posts on 'The Fountain of Our Faith: God or Man?' I want to give some help to those who are still pursuing and hunting down the answers to the last competition, which carries the prize of a first American edition of William Taylor's 'The Scottish Pulpit.' The question had to do with the exegetical society of which Robert Murray M'Cheyne was a part. I was looking for the two books that had a copy or picture of their original charter document. There were a few attempts, but I feel that no one will be able to answer it (does that make it a legitimate offer? more on this in the coming posts).
So...here are your two EXTREMELY helpful clues.
1. One book is about Andrew Bonar and the other book is about M'Cheyne.
2. The Bonar book was published in the late 1800s and the M'Cheyne book in the last 5 years.
If you look up titles online and just throw them all at me until you get it right I may not look favourably upon that.
And one last thing, this will only go until this next Sunday, and I've been offered quite a nice prize myself in exchange for the book. So if no winner by Sunday, I'll take the current offer that is on the table. I'm not like God in that I can and do show favoritism:) More on that in the coming posts as well. Cheerio.

Ok, this is my last shot I promise. I really should get on with some work. How about these two:
The Life of the Rev. Dr. Andrew A. Bonar (1893)
.
"Constrained by His Love: the Life of Robert Murray MacCheyne" (2003)
Truly my last attempt...
