Book Description
Excerpt from The First Century of the First Baptist Church of Richmond, Virginia, 1780 1880 Baptists of the State and of the South. This eminence has been acquired by the number and strength of its membership, the ability and piety of its pastors, the variety and utility of its activities, the unity and conservatism of its spirit, the wide-spread influence it has exerted more or less directly in the counsels of the denomination, and the venerableness of its age crowned with memories of triumphs of grace all through its long conflict of faith. It was fit, therefore, that, with the approach of its one hundredth anniversary, thoughts should arise of special thank-offerings to the Lord, and of some suitable commemoration of the Divine Goodness and Guidance.
