In 1845 he became See also:minister of St See also:Paul's, See also:Dundee, and in 1849 of Kettins, in Strathmore, where he remained for six years. In 1854 he was appointed See also:principal of St See also:Mary's See also:College, St Andrews. The See also:appointment was immediately followed by the See also:appearance of his See also:Burnet See also:prize See also:essay on See also:Theism. At St Andrews, where he held also the See also:post of See also:professor of systematic See also:theology and See also:apologetics, his See also:work as a teacher was distinguished by several features which at that See also:- TIME (0.

time were new. He lectured on See also:comparative See also:religion and treated See also:doctrine historically, as being not a fixed product but a growth. From the first he secured the See also:attachment and admiration of his students. In 1862 he was appointed one of the clerks of the See also:General See also:Assembly, and from that time forward he took a leading See also:part in the See also:councils of the See also:- CHURCH

Church of See also:Scotland. In x878 he was chosen See also:moderator of the Assembly. He did much to widen the See also:national church. Two positions on which he repeatedly insisted have taken a See also:firm hold—first, that it is of the essence of a church to be comprehensive of various views and tendencies, and that a national church especially should seek to represent all the elements of the See also:life of the nation; secondly, that subscription to a creed can bind no one to all its details, but only to the sum and substance, or the spirit, of the See also:symbol. For three years before his See also:death he was convener of the church interests See also:committee of the Church of Scotland, which had to See also:deal with a See also:great agitation for disestablishment. He was also deeply interested in the reorganization of education in Scotland, both in school and university, and acted as one of the temporary See also:board which settled the See also:primary school See also:system under the Education See also:Act of 1872. He died at See also:Torquay on the 13th of See also:February 1886.
Tulloch's best-known See also:works are collections of See also:biographical sketches of the leaders of great movements in church See also:history, such as the See also:Reformation and See also:Puritanism. His most important See also:book, Rational Theology and See also:Christian See also:Philosophy (1872), is one in which the See also:Cambridge Platonists and other leaders of dispassionate thought in the 17th See also:century are similarly treated. He delivered the second See also:series of the Croall lectures, on the Doctrine of See also:Sin, which were afterwards published. He also published a small work, The See also:Christ of the Gospels and the Christ of History, in which the views of See also:Renan on the See also:gospel history were dealt with; a monograph on See also:Pascal for See also:Blackwood 's See also:Foreign See also:Classics series; and a little work, Beginning Life, addressed to See also:young men, written at an earlier See also:period.
