{"id":1346,"count":2,"description":"William Kiffin (1616-1701) was a Strict and Particular Baptist preacher. In disagreement with the church at Wapping (under the pastoral care of John Spilsbury) for admitting to the pulpit unbaptized preachers, he organized in 1638 a new church meeting at Devonshire Square, which became the first Strict and Particular Baptist congregation in London on record. He is therefore sometimes called \u201cthe Father of the Strict and Particular Baptists\u201d.\r\n","link":"https:\/\/www.baptists.net\/history\/category\/william-kiffin\/","name":"William Kiffin","slug":"william-kiffin","taxonomy":"category","parent":0,"meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.baptists.net\/history\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories\/1346","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.baptists.net\/history\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.baptists.net\/history\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/category"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.baptists.net\/history\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts?categories=1346"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
