The lectures contained in The Fatherhood of God were first delivered in 1864 as part of the Cunningham Lecture Series in Edinburgh, Scotland. Candlish revised the lectures for book form, adding detailed notes at the end of each lecture. The following lectures are included: • “The Original Relation of Man to God” • “The Fatherhood of God, as Manifested in the Person of Christ, the Incarnate Word” • “The Fatherhood of God, as Revealed and Known Before the Incarnation” • “The Teaching of Our Lord on His Own and His Brethren’s Sonship” • “The Manner of Entrance into the Relation; Adoption, as Connected with Regeneration and Justification” • “The Privileges and Obligations of Sonship”
