The Princeton Seminary Bulletin, 1984, Vol. 5 (Classic Reprint)

Princeton Theological Seminary
4.9/5 (26780 ratings)
Description:Excerpt from The Princeton Seminary Bulletin, 1984, Vol. 5 The subject of the Teaching Office has special poignancy for those within the Reformed family. In The Institutes of Christian Religion John Calvin set out four offices for the church: pastors, doctors, elders, and deacons. On returning from his Strasbourg sojourn, Calvin presented to the Genevan city council a schedule of ecclesiastical organization calling for a fourfold public ministry of the Reformed churches. The second order, the doctor, was charged with teaching the faithful in wholesome doctrine. Despite this historical foundation, the second office somehow atrophied in the intervening centuries. It did not die. One place where it lived on was in New England. For example, in 1632 the Boston First Church ordained John Cotton as teacher to serve alongside the ordained pastor, John Wilson. The next year the newly organized Church of Cambridge selected Thomas Hooker as its pastor and Samuel Stone as its teacher. The landmark Cambridge Platform of 1648 included provisions for the Teaching Office based not in the school but in the parish.
