Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Title: The 1689 HandbookSub-title: How a historic confession shapes what we believe and how we liveMany Reformed Baptist churches worldwide and across the generations have adopted The 1689 Baptist Confession as an expression of their beliefs about what the Bible teaches. The Confession summarises what the Bible says about the core topics of the Christian faith: Scripture, God, Christ, humanity, sin and salvation, the Church and the end times. Across history it has proven itself to be an effective way for churches to make known what they believe, to instruct their membership on the essentials of the faith and to guard against error. These benefits continue to be enjoyed by churches across cultures today.Written with doctrinal insight, pastoral experience and a teacher's heart, The 1689 Handbook mines the Confession's riches, bringing its key teachings home to the reader with clarity and helpful application for both individual Christians and local churches. The unity and coherence of the Confession are emphasised throughout the book, helping the reader to enjoy it as an organic whole and to see how each doctrine fits together. Study questions enable the book to be used in small groups and in wider church settings. With the fine precision of a theologian, the clear perception of a teacher, and the warm affection of a pastor, Robert Strivens walks us quickly but carefully through the landscape of confessional conviction. He plainly sets out the principles of Reformed Baptist faith and life, and pointedly identifies the related practices of righteousness. He has laboured to be clear and simple without being careless or shallow. The result is an accessible volume which will help any Christian, especially those confessional Baptists who wish to know better 'the things most surely believed among us.'

In deciding what church to attend, their only questions relate to the content of the preaching and the style of worship.But the Bible is a demanding book, and it is a characteristic of the Nonconformist conscience that it cannot rest satisfied with a mere obedience in part."Pp.165.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Evangelical Dissent in the early eighteenth century had to address a variety of intellectual challenges. How reliable was the Bible Was traditional Christian teaching about God, humanity, sin and salvation true What was the role of reason in the Christian faith Philip Doddridge (1702-51) pastored a sizeable evangelical congregation in Northampton, England, and ran a training academy for Dissenters which prepared men for pastoral ministry. Philip Doddridge and the Shaping of Evangelical Dissent examines his theology and philosophy in the context of these and other issues of his day and explores the leadership that he provided in evangelical Dissent in the first half of the eighteenth century. Offering a fresh look at Doddridge's thought, the book provides a criticial examination of the accepted view that Doddridge was influenced in his thinking primarily by Richard Baxter and John Locke. Exploring the influence of other streams of thought, from John Owen and other Puritan writers to Samuel Clarke and Isaac Watts, as well as interaction with contemporaries in Dissent, the book shows Doddridge to be a leader in, and shaper of, an evangelical Dissent which was essentially Calvinistic in its theology, adapted to the contours and culture of its times.…
