These sermons and accompanying Lord's Table addresses were captured by hearers of the Rev. James Webster (1659-1720), and what they may lack in literary polish, is more than compensated for by their liveliness and unction. Manifestly, they came from lips which had been touched with a live coal from off the divine altar, and a heart aflame with the praises of redeeming love. They were preached in connection with the remembrance of the death of Christ, and set forth the riches of the Covenant of Grace, the glorious person and work of Christ, and the heights and depths of true spiritual experience.
James Webster, of the Tolbooth Church in Edinburgh, was a stalwart of the Scottish Church during the famous times of the Covenanters, and was one of the most eminent and faithful ministers of the Church of Scotland in the early 18th Century.
