	Strict Baptist - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Strict Baptists represent the strain of Particular Baptists that stayed on the "hyper-Calvinistic" course, maintained the practice of strict or closed communion, and remained aloof from the Baptist Union of 1813.
		The Grace Baptist Assembly churches represent a modification of Strict Baptists close to the "Fullerism" of the 18th century.
		The Gospel Standard Strict Baptists, remains the closest to the roots of the movement, both theologically and practically.

	Baptists
		For Baptists, the church is essentially the result of conversion and of Grace, a gathered community of committed believers; it is not the mother of Christian experience or the source (rather than the effect) of grace, as in the Catholic tradition.
		Many Baptist seminaries and churches are known for their liberal theology, style of worship, and social attitudes; and Baptists were consistently important leaders in establishing the ecumenical movement of the early 20th century.
		The convictions of Baptists are based primarily on the spiritual nature of the church, and the practice of believers' baptism arises only as a corollary of this and in the light of the NT teaching.

	Who are the Strict Baptists?
		Rooted in the older Particular Baptist tradition, they emerged as a distinct body early in the 19th century, because of their opposition to the idea that it is the duty of every person to repent and believe the gospel.
		Strict Baptists share with all other Christian traditions belief in fundamental doctrines such as the Trinity, the divinity and humanity of Jesus Christ, his virgin birth, atoning death, resurrection and return in glory.
		The Strict Baptist Mission (now known as Grace Baptist Mission) was founded for this purpose in 1861, and various other denominational agencies have come into being for the purpose of outreach.

	History of UK Baptists
		A "New Connexion" of the more evangelical General Baptists was formed in 1770 under the influence of the Methodist revival by Dan Taylor; certain General Baptist churches remained aloof, however, and of these the majority became Unitarian.
		The formation of the Baptist Missionary Society in 1792, whose first missionary William Carey went to India in 1793, was the most notable fruit of this renewal of Particular Baptist life.
		The Baptist denomination has, over the years, spread to many lands and is today one of the largest Protestant communions in the world, linked in the fellowship of the Baptist World Alliance, formed in 1905.

	BAPTISTS TODAY The Lighter Side by Bruce Gourley www
		Peter explained how early Baptists understood the Written Word as witness to the Living Word and the foundation for faith and life, and how they recognized that believers were priests before God through Christ and that faith cannot be coerced by earthly powers, whether secular or religious in nature.
		However, is not uncommon to see a good Baptist swapping a piece of fried chicken for some Methodist casserole, although it took several decades for the Landmark Baptists to get used to the idea.
		And most 20th century Baptists still lend a judging eye to their 16th and 17th century counterparts who wash down their fried chicken with something stronger than sweet tea.

	Baptists
		In 1770 the General Baptists were continued by a new group known as the New Connection General Baptists.
		Other General Baptists (sometimes called the Old Connexion) were influenced by the rise of unitarian theology (rejection of the belief in the Trinity).
		In 1812 the Strict and Particular Baptists came together to form the Baptist Union of Great Britain and Ireland and tried to promote closer links between various parts of the sect.

	Baptist History - A Brief Survey Independent Fundamental Baptist Churches - What they are and What is their History (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
		Most "Baptist" churches were in the past founded on the sound doctrinal teachings of the New Testament, however, many of them have in varying degrees drifted away from many of the teachings of the Scriptures.
		These true Baptists added the adjectives Fundamental and Independent to their name in order that they not be identified with the false practices and teaching of the doctrinally unsound churches using the Baptist name.
		To call these people Baptists or Baptistic, in the sense that the believed the Bible and followed it as their sole authority for faith and practice, in the same way true Baptist churches do today, is acceptable, although it serves no purpose.

	A Welch Succession of Primitive Baptists
		Baptists which believed in election and predestination, but also believed new birth precedes faith, are identified as Baptists of primitive theology.
		Such practices were in contrast to the early Baptists of Wales in the Midlands, who claimed their succession of Baptist heritage through the mother church in Olchon Valley located on the Wales/England border, which is part of that area of Britain known as the Midlands.
		Therefore, it may be concluded that the content of the 1655 Midland Confession satisfied the strict creed of faith and order to which the Olchon Church continuously held from her ancient origin to the establishment of fellowship with the brethren of Midland Association in 1658 and beyond.

		The late eighteenth century also witnessed a resurgence of evangelistic zeal amongst the Particular Baptists, as a result of the influence of Andrew Fuller (1754—1815) and others whose Calvinism was actively evangelical in spirit.
		The influence of the BMS led in its turn to the formation in 1812—13 of the first Baptist Union amongst Particular Baptist churches.
		This process culminated in 1891, when the General Baptists of the New Connexion, under the leadership of John Clifford (1836—1923) amalgamated with the Baptist Union.

	Spare Change: Baptists Are All Wet
		Baptists, I dare say, predate the Nazarenes, which come from the Methodists (which Baptists predate), which come from the Episcopalians (ditto), which come from the Roman Catholic Church (which I'm sure will cause a minor kerfuffle when I again say, ditto).
		So despite a wide range of variable names, today's modern Baptists share a heritage of doctrinally-based persecution, stemming from a common believe that the matter of baptism by immersion is indeed an essential one.
		There are other so-called Baptist distinctives that enter into the picture, and a lot of the groups that you read about in the Trail of Blood, as well as other histories, don't measure up.

		Understanding that Baptists have historically held the ordinances to be church-ordinances, that is, that they are to be observed in and by a (local) church only, it follows that the perpetuation of the ordinances necessitates the perpetual existence of Baptist churches.
		The unwillingness of Baptists to concede that man-made churches are just as good as the church that Christ built brings down the wrath of those who think their organization as good as Christ's.

		This is not an original doctrine of the Baptist people as shown by the Confession of Faith in 20 Articles by John Smyth and many earlier documents but more a protestant doctrine.
		The one other reason for separation from the SBC was the Millennial doctrines that were in debate by the entire Baptist faith in the 1960's and 1970's and their belief that corruption and liberalism had entered the Southern Baptist Conference.
		These brethren also share the same origins as the Original Baptists and at one time the majority of their churches were also part of the SBC until the middle of the 19th century.

		We do not believe the name "Baptist" imparts any special ecclesiastical authority to those congregations who serve the Lord under that banner for one is not a "Baptist" because he bears that name but rather because he has been providentially and graciously led by God to genuinely believe and practice specific Bible principles.
		While we should appreciate the genuine dedication of serious historians as well as their discovery and use of physical evidence in historical studies, we should not forget the ever-present "personal bias" of every historian, the "unavoidable limitations" of the scientific method and the ultimate authority of God’s Word.

	Some Minor Discussions
		Baptists in those days were a puzzle to outsiders, they were divided into "Particular"—those that believed in particular redemption—and "General"—those who affirmed that Christ died for all men.
		Then, again, among the Open Baptists were, and are, those who grant church membership apart from baptism, and those who, though they have an open table, demand baptism before entrance to the church.
		The General and the Particular Baptists have long since united, but there are still those who, being high Calvinists, hold aloof, and indeed these again are divided into two sections.

		In its strictest form, however, Sabbatarianism was the creation of The doctrine of a group of Protestants which was introduced by Scottish and English Reformers – especially John Knox – in the 17th century.
		Sabbatarians practised strict Sunday observance according to the 4th commandment of the Bible which forbids work on the Sabbath because it is a holy day.
		Other Christians argue that the 4th commandment was a part of the Hebrew ceremonial law and not moral law, and that the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, on the first day of the week, established a day of worship rather than a day for abstaining from work.
