A member of a Scottish sect, founded in the 18th century
   by John Glass, a minister of the Established Church of Scotland, who
   taught that justifying faith is "no more than a simple assent to the
   divine testimone passively recived by the understanding." The English
   and American adherents of this faith are called Sandemanians, after
   Robert Sandeman, the son-in-law and disciple of Glass.
