SHAPERS OF OUR BAPTIST FAITH
Baptist Roots in America
The Historical Background of Reformed Baptists in America
by Samuel E. Waldron
Trinity Book Service
Over the last 30 years churches calling themselves 'Reformed Baptist' have begun to dot the American evangelical landscape. Though in basic matters these churches and their members are evangelical, they differ in many important doctrinal and practical concerns from their neighbors. This is a book for Reformed Baptists and their friends. Reformed Baptist Christians are "strangers in a strange land." This book is intended to show that their "strangeness" is not their own fault but is due to the deviations of modern Baptist churches from historic Baptist thought and practice. It is also a call to all Christians to reconsider the true doctrinal roots of historic Christianity and return to them.
