"Williams had been convinced for some time from Scripture that the church was to consist of regenerate members only. He shared this view with many of the Puritan and Separatist ministers in England and New England. But he pushed this to its logical and Biblical conclusion and applied the principle without compromise. And this is where the Baptist teaching began to convince him. If the church was to be made up of believing saints, then they alone had a right to baptism. And if the Roman Catholic and Anglican churches were corrupt and not true churches, then their baptism was invalid. If their worship was false, so must their baptism be. And so he embraced believer’s baptism." For more information, visit CBTSeminary.org  

Our Lord Jesus calls Christians to become trained in good doctrine. “If you put these things before the brothers, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, being trained in the words of the faith and of the good doctrine that you have followed.” (1 Timothy 4:6) Doctrine means teaching. Each chapter of this book focuses on one doctrine connected to justification. These doctrines are paraphrased from Chapter 11: Of Justification, in the Second London Baptist Confession of Faith (1689) Order your copy of this book: https://www.amazon.com/Christs-Sake-Alone-confessional-justification/dp/B0CXXTDW8D For more information about CBTS visit: https://cbtseminary.org  

Jeffery Smith argues that faithful preaching is more than interpretive fidelity to the text of Scripture and an engaging delivery. It encapsulates a preacher’s heart and soul and involves nothing less than a rigorous regimen of proclamation, pleading, and prayer.

"Roger Williams was one of the most important formative figures for the doctrine of religious liberty in the 1600s. Williams believed in the absolute authority of the Word of God and it was his source book for faith and life. He did not ground his views of soul liberty in Enlightenment ideals or a general liberalism, like Thomas Jefferson would do in the next century. He was not a rationalist or utilitarian but a man possessed by the Scriptural doctrine of a regenerate church, headed by Jesus Christ." For more information about CBTS, go to CBTSeminary.org
