	Doing Diversity Baptist Style: Major Variations
		The younger twin, the Particular or Regular Baptists, taught that the atonement was limited to the elect and that God is sovereign in electing individuals to salvation.
		As a number of Baptists began to form mission and educational societies and theological schools and Sunday Schools, some Baptists, called Primitive or Old School Baptists, held back, rejecting all such means of expressing faith as unbiblical and infringing on the local church.
		Baptist worship generally includes an ordered service but in most cases is non-liturgical with congregational singing (often incorporating gospel hymns), extemporaneous prayer, and a sermon with an appeal for a personal response.

	Text of Cooperative Baptist Fellowship Statement to the Baptist World Alliance
		As a Fellowship of Baptist Christians and churches, we acknowledge the Lordship of Jesus Christ and confess "one Lord, one faith, one baptism." (Ephesians 4:5) As we make application for membership in the Baptist World Alliance, we sincerely desire understanding and harmony with all member bodies, including the Southern Baptist Convention.

	Baptist History Articles
		The Philadelphia Baptist Association was the first Baptist Association in America and it adopted the Calvinistic 1689 Baptist Confession from London with two additions, the laying on of hands and the singing of Psalms, and became the Philadelphia Baptist Confession of Faith in 1742.
		Protestants and Baptists have a different approach to the Holy Scriptures and while some see it as a very minor difference, Calvinistic Baptists should see it as it is. Protestants, in the Westminster Confession, the Savoy Confession and the Thirty-nine Articles, etc. establish their doctrine, message and method on the whole Bible.
		The independent Baptist spirit that prevails among Calvinistic Baptists in the 1990's is an American inheritance, and is not a historical Baptist one.

	Cooperative Baptist Fellowship
		Still, in early Fellowship meetings, dark images from the Old Testament--slavery, exile and prophetic disgust--dominated sermons whose backdrop was the SBC "holy war." While the Fellowship declined to declare itself a new denomination, speakers rarely concealed their disdain for conservative combatants who defeated them.
		The Fellowship also gathered in the shadow of Southern Seminary--the alma mater to hundreds of participants--which was captured by the new SBC leadership and turned sharply to the right.
		Instead, the SBC was almost invisible at the Fellowship assembly, with two exceptions: A bittersweet banquet, held the night before the assembly began, marked the end of loyalty to the six SBC seminaries and celebrated the beginning of a spate of new seminaries and theology/divinity schools.
