The Scottish Covenanters (VHS video casette)

This video explores an important era in Scottish religious history as we meet a people who lived in seventeenth century Scotland and who covenanted with God for the good of all. The Scottish Covenanters are often overlooked today. This video covers the story of fifty years in the seventeenth century to help us understand why they acted as they did. Their conflict was basically spiritual. Due to prevailing and constant persecution, they were drawn into deeper conflicts and complexities. They fought long and hard for the crown rights and prerogatives of Christ over His Church with devastating results upon themselves. They suffered fierce opposition that left them bereft of property and possessions. Hundreds died during these years as the State Records show. They were counted as outlaws, rebels and fanatics in order to procure their freedom. This video probes the major personalities, incidents, causes and results of this remarkable movement.
