Shepherdism

"True, the Hindu writers describe their Apollo, in the full enjoyment of a pastoral scene, worthy the birthplace of the Georgics; but the stern realities of Indian shepherdism form a woeful bathos to all this ."

"In the wide sheep pastures on the S. E. corner of Scotland, and those of England immediately bordering with it, where all the branches of the business of shepherdism are well understood, and diligently pursued, the active and intelligent occupants of sheep farms have, for some time, been in the custom of drawing small drains through all the moist parts of their pastures, to lead away the superfluous water which arises from springs, or descends from the hills in rains;"

"All these streams of thought—Biblical theology, Reconstructionism, the New Perspective on Paul, Shepherdism, Roman Catholicism, Gaffin and Bavinck, Vantilianism and Neoorthodoxy—- have contributed to the flood of Neolegalism in the churches ."

"Shepherdism accepts the reality of human power but seeks to integrate that power into a comprehensive view of human-nature relations."
