Baptist history and theology is undergoing a modern recovery and rediscovery. Such a renaissance is incomplete without an examination of the covenant theology that played such a prominent role in Particular Baptist identity, thought, and literature. This work describes the covenant theology of the Particular Baptists associated with the 1644 and 1677 Confessions of Faith through analyses of their own writings and in comparison to the Reformed theology of their day. The study offers groundbreaking, fresh insights into the interactions between Particular Baptist churches during the second half of the seventeeth century as well as providing new details of some of their most important leaders, including Nehemiah Coxe and Benjamin Keach.
Samuel Renihan's book presents a mature study in Historical Theology, describing the federal theology of the English Particular Baptists within the years 1642-1704. The research offers a full engagement with the (primary) sources. He proves that other investigations generally failed to give a full account of its progression and diversity. The views of the English Particular Baptists are critically compared to the larger streams of covenantal thought in which they lived. This volume provides a fine piece of critical investigation into a complex field of historical theology.
