The History of the English General Baptists, Vol. 1 of 2 by Adam Taylor PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from The History of the English General Baptists, Vol. 1 of 2: The English General Baptists of the Seventeenth Century Whitfield, to rouse our countrymen to an atten tion to the most important of all concerns, the salvation of their immortal souls. These useful men encountered violent opposition; but were blest with astonishing success -and were soon joined by many respectable characters. Amongst others, the pious Lady Huntingdon entered warmly into their views; and exerted all the in uence which her rank and fortune gave her, to promote their success. David Taylor, one of her servants, residing with her at Donington Park, in Leicestershire, having himself tasted that the Lord was gracious, was occasionally employed, underthe sanction of her ladyship; in preaching in theeneighbourhood. In these benevolent excursions, he visited, in 1741: glen field and Kathy, two villages near Leicester. Curiosity led many to'hear the strange preacher, and his new doctrines: and, among the rest, Mr; Samuel Deacon of Kathy, afterwards for many years pastor of the general baptist church at Bar ton.c Being informed, when at work in the field, that.a person had been preaching in the street, at Glenfield, and was going to preach again at Rat by, he immediately laid downshis scythe, and went to hear him. The sermon made a lasting im pression on his mind, and induced him to search the scriptures. The dissoluteness and ignorance of the clergyman now struck him in a new light: and he began to re ect on his own danger, as part of the ock of so careless a shepherd. Afo ter much reading, reasoning, and perplexity, he was enabled to rely on Christ alone for sal vation: and immediately found peace and joy in believing.
