Book excerpt: Excerpt from Concise History of the Baldwin Place Baptist Church: Together With the Articles of Faith and Practice of the Present Members In the year 1742, some of the members of the First Baptist Church became dissatisfied with the preaching of its pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Condy. They felt convinced that he either did not know the truth as it is in Jesus, or that he failed to preach it according to the views of Baptists. So deep were their convictions on this point, that four of them addressed to him the following letter. "To the Rev. Mr. Condy, Minister, and to the Brethren of the Baptist Church, Boston: - "We, the subscribers hereunto, having withdrawn for sometime from the public worship and communion with the said Church, do hereby lay before you the reasons why we absent ourselves. "1. We have, for a considerable time, been dissatisfied with Mr. Condy's doctrine, being, for our parts, of the opinion, from the many discourses which we have heard him deliver from the pulpit, and from conversation with him at several times, that he is what we call an Arminian, in that, as we apprehend, he holds to General Redemption, is a Free-Willer, holds a falling from grace, and denies original sin.
