The church covenant has always been a vital part to the congregational life of a Baptist church. It has been called the formal cause of the church. And it has had a long and significant role within congregational churches of various stripes. However, in recent years, the church covenant has been ignored. The consequences of this have been enormous. This book calls the church back to the idea of a church covenant, revealing its functional significance, biblical grounds, organizing structure, and practical impact in the life of the church.

Questions regarding the orthodoxy of Dale Moody and Ralph Elliott propelled the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) toward a re-evaluation of its doctrinal statement, the Baptist Faith and Message (BFM). The SBC adopted this document in 1925 under the leadership of E. Y. Mullins when faced by the challenge of modernism. This dissertation argues that the 1962 Committee on Baptist Faith and Message produced a document that expressed subtle shifts in Baptist theology. This shift had the effect of assuring the conservative base while allowing enough latitude in interpretation for those serving in the academy to teach more progressive views. After a first, introductory chapter, chapters 2 and 3 trace the historical developments leading to the formation of the Committee. Biblical inspiration and interpretation were key concerns, but as chapter 3 demonstrates, other concerns drew the attention of the Committee. Chapters 4 and 5 deal with the ever-sensitive issue of the relationship between Baptist confessionalism, soul liberty, and soul competency. Each chapter examines how Baptist confessionalism functioned in relation to these concepts. Chapter 6 examines in detail the work of the Committee itself and looks at those persons or groups who influenced the outcome of the Committee's work. Of special note are the contributions made by Wayne Ward, Leo Garrett, the religion faculty of Mercer University, and the theology faculty of Southern Seminary. Chapter 7 examines four areas where the 1963 BFM altered the confessional expression of Baptist doctrines: (1) Scripture; (2) Man; (3) Salvation; (4) The Church. Chapter 8 is the conclusion. Four appendices contain early drafts of the Committee's work.

"The Baptist Church Covenant: Its History and Meaning" explores the origins, purpose and meaning of church covenants used by Baptist churches. Church covenants were the original Mission Statements and Vision Statements of Baptists, long before Starbucks or Ben & Jerry's ever thought about writing such documents. When Baptists began in the seventeenth century, they organized congregations using covenants. These were documents signed by the founding members of a church, describing their commitment to God and one another. Church covenants became widespread among Baptists in America. Mission Statements are again gaining popularity among churches. Most Baptist churches may not realize they do not have to start from scratch in defining its direction and purpose. They may already have such a statement, which they can build upon, written over a century and a half ago. Most Baptist churches were organized using the popular covenant written by John Newton Brown and published in his Baptist Church Manual in 1853. It can often be found as part of a church's statement of faith, constitution, or bylaws. It is sometimes found pasted in the back of old hymnals or hanging in frames on church walls. Covenants may be a forgotten part of a congregation's heritage. They can be recovered and used to ground a congregation in its past while giving direction for its future. In this book Marshall Davis traces the history of church covenants and their roots in the biblical concept of covenant. Then he explores the most popular church covenant in use today, uncovering its roots in scriptural principles. He examines the covenant phrase by phrase, showing how this historical document addresses the most important issues facing churches today.

In Covenant Theology, author Jeong Koo Jeon makes a much-needed contribution to 21st century biblical and systematic theology. He explores the debate between John Murray and Meredith G. Kline, placing their ideas in the larger context of Biblical studies that have had a direct influence on Reformed theology and evangelicalism. Although the theologies of Murray and Kline contain significant differences, they both maintain a distinction between a covenant of creation and a covenant of grace. In addition, they both advocate a fundamental antithesis between law and gospel, giving a priority to law over gospel in the temporal and logical order of divine works. Jeon sees these distinctions as hermeneutic tools that are essential for better understanding of biblical revelation as well as faith, grace, and atonement.

Robert Harrison and Robert Browne were the initiators of the principles of English Separatism and Congregationalism. Unlike the Presbytero-Puritans, these nonconformists sought to establish local churches that were independent of the state. Although they encountered fierce opposition from the clergy, state officials and Anglican bishops, they persisted in their practices. As a result, the ideas of these two men profoundly influenced the Puritan movement both of England and America. In this volume, scarce and little known works, as well as new material derived from manuscripts and tracts are collected into one volume.

A brief, narrative survey of the Baptists in North America over the last three and a half centuries, from their roots in Europe to their present manifestations in contemporary America and the world. The six chapters are organized around five distinctives historically important to Baptists: the Bible, the Church, the ordinances/sacraments, voluntarism, and religious liberty. Concluding with a Chronology and extensive Bibliographic Essay, this is an ideal text for courses in Church History, North American Religious History, or American social and cultural history.
