This work is the result of a course of lectures. It is written in a plain, clear, straightforward style, and is an earnest and honest exposition of the great principles of Baptists. The author was formerly a Pedobaptist, and in changing his church relation, he has been led to look more intelligently into the principles of the Baptists, than many who have not had the same reasons to study them. C. H. Spurgeon used this book in his Pastor's College and regarded it as the best manual of Baptist principles he had met.

A Collection of John Gill's rarest Sermons, Tracts, and Essays on Scriptural Authority, the Nature of the New Testament Church and Ordinance of Baptism.

"Making Church Matter" is the answer for churches that are stuck in tradition or crisis and want to change but don't know how. The author's conversational tone and step-by-step instructions are especially appropriate for churches who have inexperienced leadership or are without a Pastor. Additionally, "Making Church Matter" is a great training manual for church leaders-both ordained and lay. All members should be exposed to the teaching in this book. This book makes a great Bible Study. It is packed with Biblical references on such topics as Biblical authority, church discipline, pastoral care and other important topics. Finally "Making Church Matter" serves as a Biblical model against which you can measure the spiritual progress of your church.

So many Baptist today have forgotten what it means--beyond the mode of baptism--to be Baptist. They have forgotten their heritage. Countless Baptist forebears bought and wrote that heritage with their blood. It is not so much whether or not we remember and honor their names; what is important is whether we honor the legacy they left us. A Distinctively Baptist Church explains how historically Baptist beliefs can and should shape the way a church functions; the study questions and downloadable teaching guide offer churches a means to work through how their Baptist heritage will shape their life and witness.

Soul-liberty is the liberty to think and act in religious matters without human dictation or control. It was the remark of the great American historian George Bancroft, that "Freedom of conscience, unlimited freedom of mind, was from the first, the trophy of the Baptists." This is a just remark; and it is the purpose of this little book, to furnish some of the deeply interesting facts upon which such an assertion is based.

There is a growing culture war in today's society. On one side, people believe in abortion as the right to choose, that the universe is here by accident, and that homosexuality is okay. They believe that Jesus was only a prophet or a good man, but on the other side, the direct opposite beliefs are being made known. In this book, the Mississippi author gives a traditional biblical point of view into what is wrong with the most fought about controversial moral and social issues facing America today.

The Reverend Clarence Larkin was one of the most widely influential pop theologians of the early twentieth century: his works are the source of many of the "prophecies" and "truths" end-times Christians hold to even today. Here, in this 1887 pamphlet, Larkin summarizes the history of his particular sect of Christianity-the Baptists-by exploring: . why water is essential to baptism . the baptismal practices of the early churches . the object of baptism . why baptism is not essential to salvation . why Baptists insist on immersion in water for true baptism . the evils of infant baptism . baptism in the New Testament . and more. American Baptist pastor and author CLARENCE LARKIN (1850-1924) was born in Pennsylvania, and later set up his ministry there. He wrote extensively and popularly on a wide range of Biblical and theological matters.
