Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Baptist history in Delaware has a character and value all its own. It is unique. It is not distinguished simply by the place of its enactment, a corner cut off from a uniform piece of cloth. Its lessons are its own, and it teaches them in its own way. One lesson, especially, of utmost import it makes solemnly and sadly prominent. Perhaps nowhere else in this country has Antinomianism, with its natural, if not inseparable, attendants of anti-missionism, anti-Sunday-school-ism, and all the other kindred anti-isms, so impressively by its fruits proved its origin, nature, and doom. In doing this it has also proved with like certainty its antagonism to the genuine Baptist faith and practice. - Introduction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1880 edition. Excerpt: ... an Association was formed among the Baptists of Delaware, but at what date he is unable to say. It seems from the following, published in 1830, that the date of organization was 1795: "The Constitution of the Delaware Baptist Association, ratified and confirmed by the delegates of the Welsh Tract, Cow Marsh, Duck Creek, Queen Anne's, Wilmington, and Mispillion churches, the 24th day of October, A. D. 1795." This document is signed by the Pastors of the churches at that time, and by one delegate from each church. Other proof is not wanting. Five of these churches were in Delaware, and one probably in Maryland. Several churches in Pennsylvania soon joined the Association, those of them connected with the Philadelphia Association withdrawing for the purpose. According to the Minutes of the Philadelphia Association, of 1794, the Cow Marsh, Welsh Tract, Duck Creek, and Wilmington churches requested "approbation and dismission" from the Association "to join another." It was voted that as the relation had been a long and happy one, they would be glad to have it continue; but if they wished to withdraw, consent was granted. They withdrew, and formed the Delaware Association, as we have seen. One, the Mispillion, came from the Salisbury Association. It seems, then, that union between Delaware and Pennsylvania churches in a Delaware Association is no new thing. Benedict says that the Delaware Association was a corresponding body of the Philadelphia Association as early as 1798, but the Philadelphia Association sent both letter and messenger to them in 1796, which was the first meeting held after the organization. At the same meeting of the Philadelphia Association, Dr. Rogers and Rev. T. Ustick were appointed to...

Download or read book The Early English Baptists Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by B. Evans and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-05 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early English Baptists, Vol. 1 The first attempt at a history of the denomination was made by Thomas Crosby. He was a deacon of the church in Goat Street, over which the excellent Benjamin Stinton presided, and kept a school in Southwark. His work is in four volumes, and is now somewhat scarce. Materials for a similar work had been collected by his pastor. These he placed in the hands of the celebrated historian of the Puritans. The unfair use, scarcely, indeed, the use at all, of the information by Mr. Neal, induced the author to write and issue his work. There is much valuable informa tion of men and events, of one of the darkest and most humiliating periods of our national history, con tained in this work. Crosby was probably conversant with some of the sufferers. His intimacy with the leading ministers in the metropolis was close. Keach and others had ministered to the church with which he was officially connected. From men, competent to speak, he has told us much which, otherwise, would have been lost. To the future historian this writer's work will always be of value. Next in this field of denominational literature appeared Mr. A. Taylor. His work is in two volumes, and was issued more than half a century ago. It is avowedly a History of the English General Baptists. It contains a mass of important information in refer ence to this increasing section of the body, especially of the New Connexion, formed principally by the late Dan Taylor. Many of Mr. Taylor's conclusions will be found more than vindicated, by the documents which will appear in this and the subsequent volume.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of the Baptists When the Short History of the Baptists was first published, in_1891, it was the convio tion of both author and publishers that a his tory of our denomination, written in an inter esting style, yet with scholarly accuracy, not so voluminous as to repel readers and cheap enough to be owned by the poorest, was a greatly needed book; The gratifying sale of the book has indicated that Baptists have found in it at least some approach to what they needed.

This book was released on 2016-10-07 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Records of the Welsh Tract Baptist Meeting, Vol. 1 of 2: Pencader Hundred, New Castle County, Delaware, 1701 to 1828 Nestled at the foot of Iron Hill, at the headwaters of the Christiana, is the Welsh Tract Baptist Meeting House, where for two hundred years the gospel has been preached; and there, for two centuries, the giant oaks have been chant ing a solemn requiem above the dead whose bodies lie buried within the meeting house enclosure. It was early in the eighteenth century that William Penn granted to David Evans and William Davis thirty thousand acres of land, to be divided and deeded to settlers from South Wales, some of whom had at that time settled in Radnor Township, Chester county, Pennsylvania. This grant, ever after known as The Welsh Tract, is located partly in Pencader Hundred, New Castle county, Delaware, and partly in Cecil county, Maryland. Possibly one-fourth of it lies in Maryland. The northeast corner of the tractis a few hundred yards northeast of Newark Station on the P., B. W. Railroad, and extends from east to west about four and one-half miles, and from north to south about twelve miles to a point south of the Delaware and Chesa peake Canal. Prominent among the original settlers upon the Welsh Tract were the founders of the Baptist Meeting, who, with Thomas Griffith as their first minister, came from Pembroke and Carmarthenshire, South Wales, in 1701, and soon after erected a log meeting house in which they wor shiped until the present structure was built in 1746. This was the third Baptist Meeting House founded in America. The first house occupied the same location as the present one. The house built in 1746 is constructed of brick, and is said to contain some of the timbers used in the first building. The bricks were brought from England, and transported from New Castle, where they were landed in panniers upon mules. It is still (1904) in a good state of preservation and regular services are held there, a stated minister being in charge. The two hundredth anniversary of the founding of the Welsh Tract Meeting was celebrated in October, 1903. The gospel was preached in the Welsh language in this meeting until about the year 1800.

This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Condensed History of the General Baptists of the New Connexion: Preceded by Historical Sketches of the Early Baptists My esteemed brother, the Author of this volume, requested an introductory Essay from me. A multiplicity of imperative duties, and feeble health, prevented my complying with his request. But I cheerfully offer my humble testimony to the value of his little work. Though small in size and low in price, it must have cost him much time and great labour. An abundant mass of interesting details and of statistical information is included in comparatively a narrow space. There is much in this volume to interest as well as to instruct, and much that is useful for occasional reference. For Baptists generally, it is a compendium of valuable information; and especially should it be welcomed by that branch of the Baptist body for whose benefit it is particularly intended. Their ancestors had the honour of being the first, in modern times, to advocate the sacred rights of conscience. They did this almost a century before Locke advocated the views they had asserted. The honour of publishing the pamphlet entitled "Persecution for Religion judged and condemned," has been claimed by our Independent brethren, but the claim is unfounded in truth - it belongs to the General Baptists. This volume records the sufferings and faithfulness of these servants of our God. I take the liberty of cordially recommending it to Christians, - to Baptists, and more especially to the members of the New Connexion of General Baptists. Let the younger members of that body learn from this volume what their predecessors endured, in support of the principles they maintain, and to secure the privileges they enjoy; and let them learn to be followers of them who through faith and patience are inheriting the promises.
