"In this episode, we return to London in the 1680s, where the inextricably linked politics and religion of the day resulted in the burning alive of a Baptist woman for treason." -Ron MillerFor more information about CBTS, visit CBTSeminary.org

Christmas Evans Pt.4
"One result of Christmas Evans’ renewed spiritual vitality was a desire to recommit himself to God. The common way to do this in the 17th and 18th century reformed churches was to covenant with God. These were usually written and signed after occasions of mercy or felt need." -Ron MillerFor more information, visit CBTSeminary.org

Christmas Evans Pt.3
"Sandemanian conversion didn’t result in remaking the whole man - mind, emotions and will. It was the bare belief of the bare truth as one man said. It was not dissimilar in this respect to the modern Free Grace movement and various other forms of easy-believism." - Ron MillerFor more information, visit CBTSeminary.org

It is time to shift our focus to Wales and to an extraordinary man who was, according to Martyn Lloyd-Jones, arguably “the greatest preacher that the Baptists have ever had in Great Britain." - Ron MillerFor more visit CBTSeminary.org

Religious Liberty: A Dissenting Protestant History and Reading List
"My advice is to be careful what you read online. I have found that even resources claiming to represent Reformed Baptist views are often very selective in their sources. For example, if a work lays claim to a Baptistic historical view but doesn’t include Roger Williams or Isaac Backus in any meaningful way, it shouldn’t be taken seriously. Men like Murton and Williams are the historical core of the idea of soul liberty and cannot be ignored if one wants to reach credible conclusions." -Ron MillerFor more information, visit CBTSeminary.org

Religious Liberty: The 1689 Confession
"Liberty of conscience was a significant doctrine of the Reformation. The reformers argued that the Roman church forced men to believe and practice things not taught in Scripture, often by implicit faith or by using forms of political, ecclesiastical, or economic coercion."For more information visit CBTSeminary.org

Religious Liberty: Baptists and the Great Persecution
"Coxe’s death and the coming of toleration didn’t immediately end the Particular Baptist differences over the scope of religious liberty. A letter by William Kiffen from September 1688 and a document from the General Assembly of 1689 shows that there was divided opinion over the Repeal campaign for several years. And yet there was at bottom, a fundamental agreement about liberty of conscience as evidenced by the 1689 Confession." - Ron MillerFor more information, visit CBTSeminary.org
