  Adam Gib - LoveToKnow 1911
ADAM GIB (1714-1788), Scottish divine and leader of the Antiburgher section of the Scottish Secession Church, was born on the 14th of April 1714 in the parish of Muckhart, Perthshire, and, on the completion of his literary and theological studies at Edinburgh and Perth, was licensed as a preacher in 1740.
It was chiefly under his influence that it was agreed by this ecclesiastical body at subsequent meetings to summon to the bar their "Burgher" brethren, and finally to depose and excommunicate them for contumacy.
Gib's action in forming the Antiburgher Synod led, after prolonged litigation, to his exclusion from the building in Bristo Street where his congregation had met.

 GOD'S EVERLASTING COVENANT   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
This must mean that - unlike Adam - he would resist the adversary and his temptations: but a further and somwewhat more mysterious thought is expressed, namely that he would be wounded or 'bruised' (as our version has it) in the 'heel'.
The answer is that he himself was to be another Adam, inasmuch as, like the first, he was to be a Covenant Head, sustaining a representative character.
Furthermore, since from Adam's Fall there has been a progressive revelation of the one eternal covenant, we believe this is the one, single, and consistent theme of the Holy Scriptures.

 BUCK'S THEOLOGICAL DICTIONARY
Alexander Moncrief, Thomas Mair, Adam Gib, and others, contended, on the other hand, that the swearing of the above clause was a virtual renunciation of their testimony; and this controversy was so keenly agitated, that they split into two different parties, and now meet in different synods.
The imputation of the sin of Adam to his posterity is also what divines generally call, with some latitude of expression, original sin.--2.
Actual sin is a direct violation of God's law, and generally applied to those who are capable of committing moral evil; as opposed to idiots, or children, who have not the right use of their powers.--3.

Soon after this the Secession Church split into two, the Burghers (who could accept the Burgess Oath, which would recognise an Established Church) and the Anti-Burghers (who could not accept this).
Erskine supported the Burghers and opposed 'Pope Gib', Adam Gib (1713-88) who led the Anti-Burgher party.
In the end it was Gib and his group who excommunicated the Burgher group, still led by Erskine.

 Musical Instruments in the Public Worship of God   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
The preference for Abel’s offering and the rejection of Cain’s was not arbitrary, but based upon past revelation given to Adam and his family.
Adam and Eve, who worshiped God before the fall, used only their voices in the praise of Jehovah.
The fact that new revelation was needed for the introduction of musical instruments into public worship is further proof that for thousands of years, from Adam to the latter part of David’s reign, true and acceptable worship was offered to God without the accompaniment of musical instruments.

The open violation of the law of God shews a daring contempt of his authority, and when no proper check is given to it by rulers and magistrates, the guilt of it is imputable to them.

As to the charge of Erastianism brought against it by the Surveyor, he says, ‘he might as well have charged’ it ‘with Mahometanism;’ and his allegation that it is inconsistent with itself, he asserts, ‘he will never be able’ to prove.

Brother Mackey believed that he had found its origin in the name of the Rev. Adam Gib, who was an antiburgher clergyman of Edinburgh.
But Gib removed only three miles from the city, where, collecting his loyal congregation, he hurled anathema's for five successive Sundays against the Pretender, and boldly prayed for the downfall of the rebellion.
So active was Gib in his opposition to the cause of the house of Stuart, and so obnoxious had he become, that several attempts were made by the rebels to take his life.

Author: Adam Gib (Minister of the Gospel, Edinburgh)
The first edition is worth $950-1250 depending on binding and condition; later editions have little value unless in a fine binding.
Thank you, perhaps it is a mixture of the two and Gib leaned on Spencers work when giving his own sermons.

The same, I fear, cannot be said of those who are mainly responsible for the internal feuds and manifold subdivisions within the church of the Secession.
In this respect it seems to me that Adam Gib was an arch-offender.
His success showed that in any theo-logical or ecclesiastical conflict he was a man to be reckoned with.
