"In THE WORKS OF JOHN SMYTH, you will discover examples of Smyth's Puritan preaching reflective of his training at Cambridge. You will also be intrigued by his discussion with other Separatists and Puritans on the nature of the true church and his understanding of true worship. In his WORKS, you will be exposed to the first book-length argument for believer's baptism to be published in English. You can also consider Smyth's interaction with Mennonite beliefs as well as one of the first statements in English on religious liberty. This reprinting of W. T. Whitley's THE WORKS OF JOHN SMYTH is the perfect way to acknowledge 400 years of English Baptist History." JASON K.
