The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly
growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by
advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve
the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own:
digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works
in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these
high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts
are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries,
undergraduate students, and independent scholars.The Age of
Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical
understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking.
Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel
Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and
moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade.
The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and
Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a
debate that continues in the twenty-first century.++++The below

"The recent reprint of The Baptist Catechism has given families and
study classes a helpful tool for memorizing the great doctrines of
the Christian faith. Now, a hidden jewel, Benjamin Beddome's 'A
Scriptural Exposition of the Baptist Catechism, ' takes its place
alongside the Catechism to give much needed assistance to the same
families and classes. Beddome shows how the doctrines contained in
the Catechism are founded upon Scripture, and explains them for all
to understand. This is indeed a wonderful instrument to make
skilled craftsmen from apprentices " - Dr. James M. Renihan

this work, Benjamin Beddome, is known to the denomination, in this
country, chiefly by means of his excellent hymns. To those who are
familiar with the effusions of his poetical genius, and who are
conscious of having derived spiritual benefit from them, some
further account of the author and of his writings will doubtless be
acceptable. Benjamin Beddome was the son of the Rev. John Beddome,
pastor of the Baptist Church in the Pithay, Bristol; and was born
at Henley, January 23, 1717. He was baptized in London, by the Rev.
Samuel Wilson, of Prescott Street, in the year 1739; and by that
church, the mother of many illustrious sons, he was called to the
work of the ministry. Having spent some time as a student under the
Rev. Bernard Foskett, of the Bristol Academy, and afterwards at the
Independent Academy, Mile-end, London, he went to
Bourton-on-the-Water, in July, 1740; and was ordained pastor of the
church, September 23, 1743. Mr. Foskett, his former tutor, gave the
charge, founded upon 1 Tim. iv. 12, " Let no man despise thy
youth;" Dr. Joseph Stennett preached to the church from Heb. xiii.
17, " Obey them that havethe rule over you;" Messrs. Hayden, Cook,
and Fuller of Abingdon prayed; and Mr. Foskett offered the
ordination prayer, with the laying on of hands by the pastors. The
early intercourse of Beddome with those pious and learned men,
Wilson and Foskett, exercised a happy influence in forming his
character and directing his subsequent pursuits. Their counsels and
instructions stimulated him to the acquisition of sound and liberal
knowledge, while their own example presented a forcible
illustration of the high uses which it might be made to subserve,
in the ministry of reconciliation.* He became an indefatigable
student; and soon acquired a distinguished repu...
