Notes on the Second Edition, third printing

The first edition of the Baptist History Workbook was published in 2002 and saw use across America and foreign countries.

A timeline has been added and an appendix. The appendix includes the author’s ten affirmations, and a helpful map. The map will help the student identify Baptist groups from each era. Included in the appendix is the article Which Church was the First Baptist Church in America? This controversy is briefly discussed in chapter twelve. The first edition has been corrected by better evidence.

The new edition includes several useful changes. Although the layout is essentially the same, the size of the publication has been changed to enhance viewing and study.

Every student of church history must be versed in the false theology of Augustine. Every student of the Baptist Christian view of history must understand Augustinianism. A brief discussion of the difference between Pauline and Augustinian theology is found in chapter four. Please note that this third printing gives slightly more detail on this matter on page 56. Also note “identifying marks” on page 59.

For this edition, we have included information on the origin of the camp-meetings and the great Baptist evangelists. We have also documented the controversial Mosheim and Hosius quotes on pages 72, 121, and 130.

Our main historians:

• Heny D’Anvers

• Thieleman J. Van Braght

• Thomas Crosby

• G. H. Orchard

• Isaac Backus

• David Benedict

• William Cathcart

• Thomas Armitage

• J. M. Carroll

• John Taylor Christian

For this edition we have added some information on the long forgotten but immensely important Henry D’Anvers, one of the first English Baptist historians. D’Anver’s Treatise on Baptism has finally been reprinted for the glory of God and the benefit of this present generation. Timelines are from Robinson’s Compilation of History, with edits by the author.
