The Life And Influence Of Joseph Philpot
We do not need anything to remind us that it is a twelvemonth since our late friend and editor departed this life. The fact is brought most painfully to our mind every month, and almost every day of the month; certainly for twenty days in the month. But in turning over a hill of papers, we were reminded more strongly than usual by coming upon the following letters. They may be by some thought to be out of date; but they are not out of date with us, and will, we doubt not, be read with interest by many.

The Origins Of The Particular And The Reformed Baptists
This question was recently put to me by a friend: ”Jared are you on the same side with Sam Renihan and his father on the issue of origins of Particular Baptists and Reformed Baptists?” My answer (with a few additions for the sake of clarity): No, we certainly would not be in agreement with the Reformed Baptists’ view on these matters. The reformed Baptist movement began in England during the 1950’s, taking over historic Particular Baptist churches and ‘unreforming’ them to align with their teachings. The group of Particular Baptist churches they commandeered belonged to the Metropolitan Association of Strict Baptist Churches (London). The church that I pastored for twenty years was

Monergism.com On Hyper-Calvinism
Monergism.com is a “free and comprehensive online library dedicated to equipping believers with the riches of Reformed Christian theology…through a curated collection of classic and contemporary resources, Monergism.com serves as a hub for those seeking to grow in their knowledge of God, embrace the historic Christian faith, and apply biblical truths to all areas of life.” One would hope, therefore, that the materials provided on the site would offer a fair and accurate account of topics, namely, that of Hyper-Calvinism. Monergism.com would have done well to consult Hyper-Calvinists before outlining a set of their representative beliefs. If so, they could have condensed the list to three items. Hyper-Calvinists believe: (1) Saving faith is the result of regenerating grace, and only those who have been brought…

The True, Proper, And Eternal Sonship Of The Lord Jesus Christ, The Only Begotten Son Of God
A controversy concerning the eternal Sonship of the Lord Jesus Christ broke out among the Strict and Particular Baptist churches during the 19th century. The orthodox view, set forth by John Gill in his Body of Divinity, and defended by Joseph Philpot in this book, asserts that the second Person of the Godhead is the Son of God in His divine nature, eternally generated by the Father. The erroneous view asserts that the second Person of the Godhead is the Son of God in His human nature only, begotten of the Father at the time of the incarnation. Although the persons holding this view maintain a belief in the TriUnity of the Godhead, yet their denial of the eternal Sonship of the Lord Jesus Christ…

Expository Notes On Psalm 37:1-7: Keeping The Boundary
Notes On The Structure 1. It is believed David wrote the Psalm a few years before his death—“I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.” (Ps 37:25) Upon reflection in his old age, he explored the question, Why does God allow the wicked to prosper while leaving His people in difficult circumstances? 2. Within the first seven verses, David gives a twofold description of the problem (1,2 and 7b) with a single statement on a prescribed solution (3-7a). 3. The problem (1,2 and 7b) is not the prosperity of the wicked, but the discontentment and covetousness of the Lord’s people. David points out the obvious—the prosperity of the wicked is short-lived.

15 Popular Misconceptions About The Church
I’d like to welcome you back for another study in the Word of God. We continue our series of studies on the biblical covenants. And if you remember from our previous study, I began to tackle a subject which is shrouded with confusion. It's the meaning and distinctions of three biblical terms—the elect, Israel and the church. I'd like to speak to you in this study on the subject of Israel and the church.
