The Young Baptist's Catechism


Book Description

The Young Baptist's Catechism is a summary of the basic teachings of Christianity. Written in a question-and-answer format, this book of instruction is to be used by young children or other laypeople as a guide in daily devotions and as a study of Holy Scripture. Every Christian, no matter how young, ought to have a complete understanding of the true teachings of the Bible.

This wonderful guide will introduce young children to the historic Reformed faith.




The 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith


Book Description

The truths that this confession promoted fell out of favor for much of the twentieth century, but in the last fifty years there has been a great recovery of gospel truth among Evangelicals and once again there are those deeply committed to the doctrines of this confession. The English language, however, has changed over time, and just as there are phrases in the Authorized Version (1611), also known as the King James Version, that are no longer as clear as they once were due to linguistic change, so it is the case with the 1689 Confession. For this reason, this new rendition of the confession by Dr. Reeves is indeed welcome. He has sought to render it readable by the typical twenty-first-century Christian reader, but with minimal change and without sacrificing any of the riches of the original text. I believe he has succeeded admirably in both of these aims. (From the Foreword by Michael A.G. Haykin)




A Scriptural Exposition of the Baptist Catechism


Book Description

"The recent reprint of The Baptist Catechism has given families and study classes a helpful tool for memorizing the great doctrines of the Christian faith. Now, a hidden jewel, Benjamin Beddome's 'A Scriptural Exposition of the Baptist Catechism, ' takes its place alongside the Catechism to give much needed assistance to the same families and classes. Beddome shows how the doctrines contained in the Catechism are founded upon Scripture, and explains them for all to understand. This is indeed a wonderful instrument to make skilled craftsmen from apprentices!" - Dr. James M. Renihan




The Baptist Confession of Faith and Catechism for Dispensational Churches


Book Description

In the late 1600s, the Baptist Confession of Faith was first penned for the churches to have a document upon which they agreed for the principles of their faith. Over the centuries, this document has been revised and adapted as needed to help the reader understand its meaning. In this current edition, Brandon James Crawford stays true to the Elizabethan English while adapting some of the wording for the modern-day reader in an attempt to help believers share it in their homes, schools, businesses, and churches. To reinforce what is taught within, Crawford also includes the Baptist Catechism at the end in hopes of making the reader stand even firmer in their faith. Any believer would benefit from the words within to help them to understand their own beliefs and the foundation on which they stand.




A Baptist Catechism


Book Description

This manual includes the London Baptist Confession (1689) and the Baptist Catechism (1751), along with a short essay on the modern-day downgrade and a Bible reading plan. This material has been collected specifically for use among Reformation Montana churches, but it has been made available for all Baptists of life-faith. "Revivalism may be driven by emotion, fanaticism, and every other work of the flesh. But genuine revival and reformation is founded upon and driven by a rediscovery of the great truths of Christianity. Catechisms, such as the one found in these pages, serve to both promote and sustain genuine reformation." Paul Washer Director of HeartCry Missionary Society and 2012 RefMT Conference Speaker "The Bride of Christ needs the book A Baptist Catechism. Jordan has provided a great benefit and asset to the church by compiling valuable resources that will aid and strengthen both the church and her members. The essay, "A Modern Day Downgrade," is revealing and convicting in its content. This is a book that will not disappoint." Ricky Le'Mons Executive Director of Reformation Montana and pastor of Trinity Baptist Church in Billings, MT "Western culture today seeks to cut itself free from burdensome things like truth, consistency, and commitment. The Baptist Catechism reminds us that there are truths worth living for, and dying for, that give life transcendent meaning and purpose." Dr. James White, Director of Alpha and Omega Ministries, host of The Dividing Line and 2013 RefMT Conference Speaker.
