The aim of the book is to reexamine Baptist theology and practice
in the light of the contemporary biblical, theological, ecumenical
and missiological context, drawing on historical and contemporary
writings and issues. It is not a study in denominationalism but
rather seeks to revision historical insights from the believers'
church tradition for the sake of Baptists and other Christians in
the context of the modernpostmodern context.
This is a facsimile reprint of the 1964 edition published in New
York by Russell & Russell, Inc., which was itself an enlarged
version of the original produced in 1867 by the Narragansett Club
Publications, Providence, RI.
Many books have been written to set forth the Biblical truths
commonly believed by Baptists. Many of these teachings are shared
by other believers, but some are distinctive in that only Baptists
have been willing to support them solely on Biblical authority.
Biblical Authority - Autonomy of the Local Church - Priesthood of
All Believers - Two Ordinances - Individual Soul Liberty - Saved
Church Membership - Two Officers - Separation of Church and State
Drs. L. Duane Brown and his son, Daniel, have teamed up to expand
the previous edition of Biblical Basis for Baptists that sold more
than 65,000 copies. Both men are well qualified, based on their own
individual ministries, to author this practical, doctrinal
presentation. Chapters have been added for leadership to establish
or evaluate their church missions program, especially on their
indigenous policy. A special highlight is a message presented by
Dr. Duane Brown on how Baptists brought religious freedom to
America. Since this book is based on Scriptural principles,
individuals and teaching organisms (Sunday school classes, youth
and college groups, membership classes, home school parents,
Christian schools, or schools of higher learning, etc.) will find
it to be trustworthy.
