Donald Macleod to receive DD from WTS

The Free Church of Scotland reports it here.

It has been my privilege to know Principal Macleod for over twenty years now. He is Principal and Professor of Systematic Theology at the Free Church of Scotland College in Edinburgh, Scotland.

The first time I ever heard him preach was at a Sunday communion service at Buccleuch Free Church, in Edinburgh, Scotland during the autumn of 1987. I shall never forget it. He spoke as a man enthralled by the realization of the sheer grandeur of God's grace and glory. His evident concern for God's people, powerful doctrinal exposition, discerning pastoral application of the truth, and perceptive acquaintance with the labyrinth of the human heart, combined to produce the deepest spiritual impression on my soul. His text was Romans 8:32 and it was the greatest sermon on the love of God which I have ever been privileged to hear.

21 years later I am still deeply affected at the remembrance of it.
