William Law
TheologianWilliam Law, Theologian, (1686 – 1761) entered Emmanuel College, Cambridge in 1705, where he studied the classics, Hebrew, philosophy and mathematics. In 1711 he was elected fellow of his college and was ordained. He resided at Cambridge, teaching and taking occasional duty until the accession of George I, when his conscience forbade him to take the oaths of allegiance to the new government. Thereafter, Law first continued as a simple priest (curate) and when that too became impossible without the required oath, Law taught privately, as well as wrote extensively. His works include A Serious Call to a Devout and Holy Life and A Practical Treatise Upon Christian Perfection.
