The Adversaries of God's Eternal Predestination / First Error, Part 2 - John Knox John Knox (1514 – 1572) was a Scottish minister, theologian, & writer who was a leader of the country's Reformation. He was the founder of the Presbyterian Church of Scotland. The exact time of John Knox conversion is not known, however it is clear that by the end of March 1543 he was committed to the Christian gospel. At this time he was persuaded to take a more public stand for the gospel and act as the bodyguard for the preacher George Wishart. who had been accused of conspiring to assassinate Cardinal Beaton, the Roman Catholic emissary to Scotland. Only five hours after Knox eventually left him George Wishart was arrested, tried, convicted, and condemned to death. Having been Wishart's bodyguard meant that Knox himself was now in danger. He ended up fleeing to St Andrews where a group of gentry and their supporters had killed Cardinal Beaton and taken over his castle. While in St Andrews Knox was officially appointed preacher, and preached his first sermon on Daniel 7:24-25. It soon became apparent that Knox was prepared to strike at the very root of the Catholic system. When The castle of St Andrews finally surrendered to the French backed forces of Mary Stuart in August 1547, Knox was sentenced to serve as an oarsman in the French galleys. While this was a time of great physical suffering it was also a time of great strengthening spiritually. After his release from the galleys in 1549 he settled in England and became a minister in the Church of England which was then at the height of its own reformation. It was not long after before differences began to show themselves between Knox and those in the Church of England who only wanted a partial reformation of the Roman Catholic system. In 1553 King Edward VI died and was succeeded by his sister Mary who was an ardent Catholic. Knox felt it was time to leave England for continental Europe. Not long after this he was appointed Pastor of an English speaking church in Frankfurt, this did not last long though as the church became dominated by those who insisted upon an Anglican form of worship rather than one with gospel preaching at its center. Knox moved on to Geneva where he began to Pastor the first true Puritan church, a church which held preaching to be the center of church worship. After the death of Queen Mary of England the Geneva church decided to transfer home to England, this allowed Knox to return to his home country of Scotland in 1559. Things were not straightforward for Knox even then. In Scotland Mary of Guise was ruling as Queen of France and Scotland. Knox preached around Scotland gaining support for the reformation, while Mary used French troops in an attempt to gain a decisive military victory over the Protestants. Her victory was not to be, While Mary looked for support from France, The Protestants had secured support from Elizabeth in England. In July 1560 Mary of Guise died and by August 1560 Scotland was declared Protestant by an act of Parliament, a National Reformed church was established and John Knox was active in organizing it. While all of this was going on Mary Queen of Scots was living in France with her husband. In December he died, and Mary was allowed to return to Scotland on the condition that she did not attempt to bring back the blasphemous Catholic mass to Scotland. Mary did not keep to this agreement and was soon using every available subterfuge to promote Catholic influence throughout Scotland. He preached for the last time on 9 November 1572 and was taken ill a few days later and he died on 24 November 1572.
