Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the early history of Baptist churches in Virginia. The author focuses on three topics: the degree to which Baptist thought existed in the colony before the formation of any organized churches; the circumstances surrounding the emergence of Baptist churches in the early 18th century; and the factors that contributed to their extraordinary growth. The author argues that Baptists were present in Virginia from its earliest days but were prevented from organizing due to harsh laws. In the early 18th century, the Act of Toleration allowed Baptists to worship freely, and they quickly established churches. The author then identifies the reasons for the Baptists' success, including the blessing of God, the zeal of their ministers, the receptivity of the people, and the absence of an established church. The book offers fresh insights into the religious landscape of colonial Virginia and the origins of one of the state's largest denominations.
