Stephen Lobb : ウィキペディア英語版 | Stephen Lobb Stephen Lobb (c. 1647- 1699) was an English nonconformist minister and controversialist. He was prominent in the 1680s as a court representative of the Independents to James II, and in the 1690s in polemics between the Presbyterian and Independent groups of nonconformists. His church in Fetter Lane is supposed to be the successor to the congregation of Thomas Goodwin; he was the successor to Thankful Owen as pastor, and preached in tandem with Thomas Goodwin the younger.〔Frederick William Bull, ''Records concerning those members of the Bull family, who are descendants of or connected with the Rev. William Bull (of Newport Pagnell)'' (1895), p. 5.〕 ==Life==
He was the son of Richard Lobb, M.P., of Liskeard, Mill Park, Warleggan, and Tremethick, St. Neots, Cornwall. In 1681 he settled in London as pastor of an independent congregation, first in Swallow Lane, and moving in 1685 to Fetter Lane.〔Francis J. Bremer, Tom Webster, ''Puritans and Puritanism in Europe and America: A Comprehensive Encyclopedia'' (2006), pp. 160-1.〕 He was accused of being concerned in the Rye House plot, and with another minister named Casteers was arrested in Essex and committed to prison in August 1683.〔Luttrell, ''Relation of State Affairs'', 1857, i. 273, 275.〕 After James II had issued his declaration for liberty of conscience (4 April 1687), Lobb was one of the ministers selected by the independents to present an address of thanks to him. He became somewhat isolated because of his stance towards James;〔 his frequent attendance at court, for which he was sometimes called the 'Jacobite Independent,' led the church party to accuse him of promoting a repeal of the Test Act.〔 When on 23 September 1688 Grocers' Hall was opened by the lord major, Lobb preached the sermon.〔Luttrell, i. 462.〕 After serving as a "preacher to a congregation of dissenting protestants at his house in Hampstead",〔Alexander Gordon (ed.), ''Freedom after Ejection. A Review (1690 to 1692) of Presbyterian and Congregational Nonconformity in England and Wales'', Manchester University Press, 1917, p. 303.〕 the precursor to what later became Rosslyn Hill Unitarian Chapel, in 1694 he was chosen to fill one of the vacancies, occasioned by the exclusion of Daniel Williams, among the lecturers at the Pinners' Hall. He died on 3 June 1699.〔
