    The Life And Testimony Of Maria M’Kenzie

    In early life she belonged to the Church of England, but, on Mr. M'Kenzie going forth to preach the truth in Preston and the neighbourhood, she was led to hear him, and the word was made a blessing to her soul. She cast in her lot with the people, and was baptized. She was afterwards taken seriously ill in London while Mr. M'Kenzie was supplying there; but God, in his mercy, raised her up again, and she was enabled to bless his dear name for his goodness in her recovery.

    A Review: The National Synod Of The Belgic Reformed Churches, Held At Dort, In The Years 1618 and 1619

    We conscientiously object to an established church in any form, believing that such establishments are unscriptural, and always have proved themselves to be, more or less, persecuting bodies. These religious formations stand opposed to the separate, independent churches formed by the apostles under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Every true church is complete in itself.

    The Life And Ministry Of W. M. Haydon

    My acquaintance with Mr. Haydon commenced in 1861, when he would be about thirty-six years of age. At that time it wasvmy happy privilege to conduct, in turn with some Christian brethren, a united prayer meeting in Hoxton. One evening, Mr. Haydon came; something about him struck me as to his ability to express himself well. I said if he would try to cultivate the gift of speaking; I thought he would succeed. I invited him to a meeting I was then conducting in a room in Tabernacle-walk.

    The Life And Ministry Of George Wiltshire

    “May the dear Lord grant that I, a poor unworthy sinner, may not write one word more than I have handled, tasted, and felt, though, no doubt, you will find in my narrative a part of what I have already told you of my experience. But I wish you to have things in a more straightforward course, as, perhaps, you may have to peruse this epistle over again, when the hand that now writes to you is silent in the tomb.

    Why Are We Strict And Particular Baptists?

    "Strict and Particular Baptists.'' The title came into prominence in connection with the Norwich Chapel Law-suit of 1860, when it was contended that the Lord's Supper was administered in that place of worship in a way that was opposed to the custom of the founders of the Church and the provisions of the Trust Deed. The decision of the Master of the Rolls was in favour of those who had introduced the innovations, and against those who desired that the ancient practice of the Church should be maintained. From that time forth these, and those that see with them, became a separate section of their Denomination—and they have since been regarded as Strict and Particular Baptists, in opposition to those whose Church Order is that…

  • Ebenezer Vinall

    The Life And Ministry Of Ebenezer Vinall

    The Open-Place Said: EBENEZER A. VINALL, Died May 6, 1880. Aged 63. Septimus Sears departed! Francis Covell silent! Ebenezer Vinall in the grave! How quickly one after another is called from the Churches where Christ has been preached with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven. “Dust to dust! it mingleth well among the sacred soil.'" After some of the roughest storms that nature can endure, in a succession of horrible fits, the soul of Ebenezer Vinall was called home to his happy rest. The Church in Regent-street, City-road, is again bereft of its pastor.
