This volume of essays focuses on the thought of John Gill, the
doyen of High Calvinism in the transatlantic Baptist community of
the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.
Among the topics covered are Gill's trinitarian theology, his
soteriological views, his Baptist ecclesiology, and his use of
Scripture. Other papers are more focused, examining, for instance,
his clash with the Arminian Methodist leader John Wesley over the
issues of predestination and election, a clash that decisively
shaped Wesley's perspective on Calvinism.
The tercentennial of Gill's birth in 1997 is a fitting occasion to
issue this study of a man whose systematic theology and exposition
of the Old and New Testaments formed the mainstay of many
eighteenth-century Baptist ministers' libraries and who has never
been the subject of a major critical study.
