The free offer of the gospel and the relation of saving faith to assurance, justification, and repentance were central issues in the Marrow controversy of the mid-eighteenth century. In Offering and Embracing Christ, John Biegel finds an unlikely stronghold of Marrow theology in the Established Church of Scotland: John Colquhoun. Biegel demonstrates that Colquhoun’s evangelical Calvinism reflected the thought of the Marrow men on offering and embracing Christ. Foreword by Sinclair Ferguson.
Charles Jones was born in 1784 in England. He married Ann Townsend and they had eight children, including Ann, Hannah, Charles, William, Sophia, Robert, Benjamin and Louisa. Charles died in 1834 during a cholera epidemic and some of younger children moved to Milton, Ontario with their mother. Jonah Smith married Sarah Jane Fennell, the daughter of Isaac and Clarissa Fennell. Sarah Jane had migrated from Ontario to Nebraska earlier by herself. The children born to Jonah and Sarah Jane were Thomas, Alexander, Edward, John, Rachel, Maggie and Matilda.
