Part I surveys pertinent nineteenth century intellectual and ecclesiastical challenges and the response of contemporary Evangelical thinkers. The development of the College’s tradition is recounted in the light of its founder’s intention. Part II attempts to define Principal Jones’s place in the Evangelical spectrum of the day, including the two additions of the latter half of the nineteenth century, namely a premillennial expectation of Christ’s return and the holiness teaching of Keswick. A fresh examination of the sources does not find the narrow outlook usually attributed to him and to his legacy. Part III, on Principal Davies, locates him in the Evangelical spectrum as broadened by the liberal theological ideas prevalent in Cambridge at the turn of the nineteenth century. It explores for the first time the degree and limits of his liberal convictions. It notes the tensions created, which culminated in a noteworthy election of a new archbishop in 1933, and resistance to him in his early years. Part IV examines the thought of Principal Hammond, whom it locates in the same part of the Evangelical spectrum as Jones, and as sharing with him the Keswick holiness addition, but not premillennialism. His broad-ranging thought and scholarship was not characterised by a sectarian outlook, nor by the same emphasis on piety as Jones. His focus was on what was biblical and Reformation Anglican. The thesis concludes that the thought and influence of the three principals was in clearer harmony, or less, with the College founder’s intention, as each represented a more conservative part of the Evangelical spectrum, or more liberal. These case studies not only caste light on evangelicalism more generally. Since the College played a key role, they also throw light on the Anglican character of the Diocese of Sydney.","abstract_html":"The thesis explores the spectrum of Evangelical (Anglican) doctrine taught at Moore Theological College and the Diocese of Sydney, under three historically significant heads of the College – Nathaniel Jones (1897-1911), DJ Davies (1911-1935) and TC Hammond (1936-1953).
