Description
In the final volume of Tom Nettle's Trilogy on the Baptists, he traces some of the modern movements and key personalities who have shaped our contemporary Baptist churches. Nettles looks at the downgrade in the British Church through the lenses of C.H. Spurgeon and John Clifford and the decline in America, looking at the influences of A. H. Strong, E. Y. Mullins, and the Baptist Modernists. Key outcomes are explored that inevitably grow out of Baptist theology (separation of church and state, for instance).
The 'renewed contours' of the present day Baptist movement are also covered with particular reference to recent changes in the Southern Baptist Convention.
"Building on his earlier research, Nettles carries the Baptist story into our times. A work rich in detail and offering a distinctive interpretation of the people of God called Baptists." -- Timothy George, Beeson Divinity School, Sanford University, and Senior Editor at Christianity Today
Thomas J. Nettles is Professor of Historical Theology at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky
