Synod at Scone

 

Synod at Scone

In 906, the Synod at Scone united Scottish Christian pastors for gospel reformation without the interference or authority of Pope Sergius III in Rome.

The 19th century Scottish Historian J.A. Wylie wrote:

"In the sixth year of the reign of Constantin (A.D. 906), a great church assembly was held at Scone. It was presided over by Constantin the king and Kellach the bishop. It was attended, we are told, by the nation of the Scots, that is, by both clergy and laity. The object of this national convention was the reformation of religion, in accordance with the laws and discipline of the faith, the rights of the Church, and the precepts of the Gospel."
