One of the frequent misconceptions of English Particular Baptist life in the 1700s is that it was captive to a hyper-Calvinistic ethos that led it into decline. To a degree, this was true in some places, including central England and London. But the extent has often been exaggerated or misjudged. There are many counter-examples including the life and ministry of Benjamin Beddome and his father, Jo...

I’ve had several people ask the question – at what age did the early Particular Baptists immerse believers? Back then, did a person have to be a certain age to qualify for baptism? I’m thankful for this question for several reasons. First, it’s one I’ve wondered about and studied for years. Second, the answer from history is quite different from much of the modern practice of believer’s baptism. A...

In the last 20 years there has been a resurgence of interest in Anne. One of the best studies is called “To Express the Ineffable: the hymns and spirituality of Anne Steele” by Cynthia Aalders. It was published by Paternoster Press in 2008 as part of a series on Baptist history and thought. There are many useful books in that list. But I often find these kind of studies to be out of touch both his...

God declares us righteous. But on what basis does He do this? What is the righteousness which he takes into account when He says we are righteous? Some have understood Rom 4:3-5 to teach that God looks at our faith or our evangelical obedience as the basis for His verdict that we are righteous. The truth is that such an interpretation is a radical betrayal of the biblical doctrine of justification...

Last time I left the great question hanging: How can a sinful man be just before the holy God? Chapter 11 of 1689 seeks to answer the question. Having seen the necessity of justification, consider next the agent of justification.

In exploring the life of Anne Steele, there are many events common to much of Baptist life at the time, for example, the close knit even guarded church communities, the close family ties, the frequency of death and sorrow. But the Steeles were unusual to some degree in that they were financially well-off. They lived what we might call an upper middle class lifestyle.

We come today to consider Chapter 11 of the Confession which takes up the crucial subject “of justification.” The text of this chapter of the Confession is almost identical with that of the Westminster Confession. This fact underscores the complete agreement of its writers with the doctrine of justification held by Luther and the whole Protestant Reformation. Indeed, the doctrine of justification...

Anne Steele was born to William and Anne Steele during the second week of May, 1717. She joined an older brother, William, in their ancestral home called Grandfathers. A few years later another brother was born, Thomas. But this was to be a time of grief, not joy, because mother Anne died of childbirth complications and Thomas followed her to the grave a few weeks later. It is likely that father W...
