Title:  Thomas Erskine of Linlathen. His life and theology 1788 to 1837
Summary: Thomas Erskine (1788–1870) was a Scottish lawyer-turned-theologian, born into a respected family in Angus. By temperament gentle, reflective, and independent-minded, he never held church office but became one of the most influential lay theologians in early-19th-century Scotland. After studying law and being admitted to the Scottish bar, he inherited the Linlathen estate, which allowed him to leave professional life and devote himself to writing, correspondence, and religious study.
During the period up to 1837, Erskine was already known for his probing, pastoral, and often controversial theological writings. He was deeply connected with figures in the Scottish evangelical movement, yet he kept a distinctive voice marked by moral philosophy, spiritual introspection, and a desire to reconcile divine love with human experience. His home at Linlathen became a noted gathering place for thinkers, ministers, and seekers.
