Covenanter History: James Renwick

James Renwick was born in February 1662 in Moniaive and killed in February 1688 just 26 years later. He was zealous for the Truth and ministered to the scattered flock of faithful Covenanters across Scotland often at very large outdoor services called conventicles. He organized The Societies and published powerful documents outlining the spiritual and political teaching of the Covenanters. He was captured in Edinburgh and hung, the last public martyr. #covenanterhistory
