Synopsis

April 18th, 1521. Martin Luther was on trial for believing the Scriptures were the ultimate authority for the Christian, rather than dogma developed by men. He is quoted as having said, "My conscience is captive to the Word of God" when asked to recant his writings. I've taken part of Luther's statement as my title because while I am thankful to God for myriad men in the Reformed Baptist world that have taught me much, I cannot claim full allegiance to a document written in the 17th century; it beingmostly right. The Word of God - alone! - demands and warrants our full allegiance. While we have disagreements, let Holy Writ be our foundation and wisdom as we test all things and hold to that which is good.

In four parts, this book examines the history of Baptists and the distinctives that mark them; how Baptists fit into and should view reformed theology; a Baptist view of the covenants in Scripture; and what these theological and doctrinal concepts look like when practiced in a local church.

Powerfully Written! An Excellent, Exciting Exposition of the Word of God! This book introduces and orients the reader to critical biblical/theological thinking -- with a clarity that fosters biblical thought and facilitates Bible comprehension.
