Dr. Matthew Barrett's departure from the Southern Baptist Convention has taken a small corner of internet theology by storm. But more than what he's departing from, the turmoil has been caused by what he's departing to -- Anglicanism. Critics of classical theology within Baptist circles have already begun turning this into an I told you... Continue Reading →
Thomas Goodwin vs. Michael Heiser
Jon Moffitt from the Theocast and Kingdoms Unveiled podcasts continues in his attempt to make Heiser's Divine Council view fit with Reformed theology, this time by quoting Westminster divine and Savoy Declaration co-author, Thomas Goodwin. I think we might be seeing this push among Reformed camps to legitimize Heiser's view because without it being found... Continue Reading →
RESOURCE: Writings of the Particular Baptist Confessors
Having been richly blessed spending time in the works of our Particular Baptist forebears, I came to realize that there was a great gap to be filled in making their works more accessible. As far as I could find, there was no easy place to go to find a thorough list of their works, making... Continue Reading →
The Particular Baptists Were Against Secular Liberty: A Vindication
Within the last few months, Dan and I have thrown our hat in the ring to retrieve the Particular Baptist view on the question of civil government. Our conclusions have bucked against the common ideas people have about the Baptist view of religious liberty. Many seem to assume that if they advocated any view of... Continue Reading →
Why I’m Not a Christian Nationalist: An Old Baptist Alternative
This post likely won't win me many friends. Obviously, Christian nationalists won't like me criticizing their position. But this post will likely frustrate many on the anti-Christian nationalist side of things too, because this post is NOT about principled pluralism, post-WWII conceptions of religious liberty, or really anything that would satisfy secular America today. Indeed,... Continue Reading →
Milne and Textual Conjectures by Calvin
The topic of the preservation of Scripture is a hot topic among the Reformed. Books are written, podcasts made, and articles posted (including this one!). Garnet Howard Milne wrote a book on what the purity of the text of Scripture meant according to the Reformed called, ‘Has the Bible been kept pure? The Westminster Confession... Continue Reading →
The History of Confessional Christology
The Bible’s affirmation that Christ is both God and man yet one Christ is the mystery upon which all of redemption hangs. The Confession does not attempt to explain this mystery but presents us the classic Chalcedonian paradox, saying, “two whole, perfect, and distinct natures were inseparably joined together in one person, without conversion, composition,...

Can We Learn From Roman Catholics?
Thanks to The Particular Baptist team for feedback and edits for this article. There is plenty going around suggesting that it would be improper to utilize Roman Catholic teachers in theology especially as it relates to the doctrine of God. It is easy to see why this would be the case. Roman Catholicism is not... Continue Reading →
Van Tillian Inconsistency
I want to start off by saying that I fall into the “presup” camp when it comes to apologetics. I find the position to be most consistent with Scripture (which I am not seeking to defend in this article). However, I find problems among those in the camp and even with some of Van Til’s...

Mormonism and The Denial of Classical Theism
I to give credit to those on The Particular Baptist team that helped me with this article with recommendations and edits. With my deeper dive into theology proper and historical theology it has opened up considerations I have not taken into account before. In this case, with Mormonism’s theism and how this topic was dealt... Continue Reading →
