Collier clearly had a wonderful command of the Scriptures, at least in the sense of knowing the words. But how he understood its teaching varied widely over time and seems to have been rooted in a simplistic Biblicism that sometimes led him into truth and other times into error or worse. His doctrinal fluctuations fall into three periods. Pastor Ron explains his views of Christ and the Trinity in...

A number of months ago one of my listeners contacted me regarding Thomas Collier, a man I have mentioned a few times in these podcasts. My hearer wanted to know what resources were available for a study of his life and teaching. I had to reply that I didn’t know a lot except that Collier was opposed by William Kiffen and Nehemiah Coxe as one who taught “heresies and gross errors”. And one of his t...

You shouldn't be surprised to hear that no every Particular Baptist continued as one. Some professors changed their minds in religiously significant ways and left to dedicate their lives to other religious groups, such as the Quakers. A few others, like Henry Hill, displayed an almost constant inconstancy, apparently in order to pragmatically benefit from changing governments. You are listening to...

We must bow before the mysterious complexity of our great Lord. He is one person with two distinct natures sinlessly. All these truths must be held together to be an orthodox Christian by the standard of the early creeds. This great and complex mystery is summarized by Christian theologians in a phrase you should know and understand. They call it “the hypostatic union.”   Confessing the Faith...

In this podcast we take up the “sinless integrity” of the Mediator. Both the 1689 and the Creed of Chalcedon plainly affirm this. No heresies denied this in the early church, but it has been blasphemously questioned by Liberals and others in the modern church era. It is substantiated by 12 clear texts in the Word of God which speak of the glory of the sinless integrity of our Savior.   Confes...

Early heresies like Gnosticism and Docetism denied that Christ was a man. The Confession echoing the Creed of Chalcedon asserts the opposite. Another early heresy said that Christ was mostly man. Rather, as the Confession says, he is “very man” “with all the essential properties” of human nature.   Confessing the Faith is a theological and devotional walk through the 1689 Baptist Confession o...

I have a deep interest in how the typical particular baptist of the 17th century thought and acted on a routine basis. Like us, they didn't always act precisely in line with their official confessions, or with their fellow saints of the baptized way. Here is a story about a particular baptist woman and a book she wrote.  You are listening to Particular Pilgrims: Stories from Reformed Baptist...
