Conditional Time Salvation
Is it a Bible doctrine? or Is it a recent heresy? "Truth needs no apology, and error deserves none. Prefatory lies have often atoned for ignorance and ill-will in the Eastern and European worlds; but let the sons of America be free. It is more essential to learn how to believe, than to learn what to believe. "The doctrine and spirit of the following remarks are left for the reader to judge of for himself. Truth is in the least danger of being lost, when free examination is allowed." Elder John Leland We humbly adopt the above sentiment of Leland as we approach this subject. The purpose of this article is singular. We seek to establish that Conditional Time Salvation is not revealed in the…

The Origin And Teachings Of Conditional Primitive Baptists
The origin of the English Particular Baptists and the American Particular Baptists may be traced to the first half of the seventeenth century. Generally speaking, both groups came to embrace eighteenth century Hyper-Calvinism, but by the turn of the nineteenth century, were thrown into conflict by the newfangled teachings of Andrew Fuller. The English Particular Baptists separated into the Gillite (Hyper-Calvinist) and Fullerite (Moderate-Calvinist) camps (during the 1780’s), whereas the American Particular Baptists separated into the Primitive (Gillite) and Missionary (Fullerite) camps (during the 1830’s).

Arminianism In The Oven
To The Late Rev. William Huntington, S. S.. Minister Of The Gospel At Providence Chapel, Little Tichfield Street, And The City Chapel, Grub Street. Dear and Honored Father in Christ Jesus, The Lord having (in love to my soul) made choice of your mouth to preach the glad tidings of a finished saltation by Jesus Christ, to the unspeakable joy of my heart, which 1 experienced to be the power of God to deliver me from the guilt and power of sin, the curse of a broken law, the dominion of Satan, and the dread of death and hell: and knowing that you are sweetly taught “to condescend to men of low estate,” I have taken the liberty of dedicating the following discourses to you.…

35 Bible Doctrine – The Significance Of JOHN GILL And His Writings
I would like to welcome you back to another study in Bible Doctrine. In our previous six studies, I have given a historic and theological overview of 17th and 18th century Hyper-Calvinism. I began with a definition—Hyper-Calvinism is any teaching which goes beyond that of Calvin himself. Accordingly, Hyper-Calvinism emerged in two waves. The first began with the publication of Calvin’s Institutes in 1536, culminating in the 1689 Second London Baptist Confession of Faith. This may be regarded as 17th century Hyper-Calvinism. The second began with the publication of two sermons preached by Benjamin Keach in the year 1692, culminating in John Gill’s Body of Divinity in the year 1770. This may be regarded as 18th century Hyper-Calvinism. Both groups were driven by a covenant…

34 Bible Doctrine – The Believer’s Rule Of Conduct
I would like to welcome you back to another study in Bible Doctrine. In our previous two studies, I have been looking at the three controversial issues which separate 17th century Hyper-Calvinism from 18th century Hyper-Calvinism—the doctrines of duty faith, the free offer and the ten commandments as the believer’s rule of conduct. For this study, we are looking at the ten commandments as the rule of conduct which governs the believer’s life. Those who subscribe to this doctrine assert, that while the unregenerate sinner cannot be justified with God by keeping the ten commandments, yet the regenerate sinner is sanctified by God through his/her obedience to the ten commandments. They believe God has given a law, which they identify as the moral law, which…
