Andrew Fuller and the Search for a Faith Worthy of All Acceptation
The eighteenth-century English minister Andrew Fuller lived a consequential life, debating noteworthy contemporaries such as Thomas Paine and contributing to the pioneering international work of William Carey. However, his soteriology remains his most significant theological contribution. Fuller explored the role that human agency plays in salvation's reception, and he offered substantive theological proposals that many religious historians now credit with advancing the Evangelical Revival. Fuller's work was both traditional and creative. He sought faithfulness to the broader Protestant tradition but developed that tradition in unique and contextually relevant ways. Despite Fuller's influenc...
Spurgeon and the Poor
How should the people of God respond to social issues? Alex DiPrima looks back to an unexpected source for answers: Prince of Preachers, Charles H. Spurgeon. DiPrima examines how Spurgeon’s belief that gospel preaching should be the church’s mission informed his benevolence and social concern.
The Jews in English Baptist Eschatology
Ivan E. Mesa explores how English Particular Baptists held a unique view of the Jewish people within God's unfolding redemption. As Dissenters themselves, Baptists empathized with the Jewish plight and connected their philo-Semitism to a larger theological vision that anticipated the Jews' conversion and eventual return to the land of Israel. English Baptists viewed Jews as the people of God, "beloved for the fathers' sake" (Rom. 11:28). They believed the nation of Israel would one day experience a transformative conversion, aligning with God's covenantal promises. Through figures such as Henry Jessey, John Gill, Andrew Fuller, and Charles Spurgeon, the author demonstrates how these Baptists...

Spurgeon
Alex DiPrima paints a fresh portrait of Charles Haddon Spurgeon—the most well-known gospel minister of the nineteenth century.
Revelation
Andrew Fuller's commentary on Revelation (1815) appeared as one of the final statements of his long engagement with biblical apocalyptic writing. Fuller thought through his eschatological commitments as he moved from the high Calvinism of his early ministry to the evangelical Calvinism of his later life. The early influence of Gill - which included an eccentric combination of positions later identified as pre- and post-millennial - gave way to an evangelical piety strongly influenced by the writings of Jonathan Edwards. Fuller was deeply influenced by Edwards' support for evangelical revival, and by his expectation that the gospel would sweep victoriously across the globe. Fuller's commentary on Revelation, published in the year following his death, offers access to one of his last series of sermons, to his mature understanding of how divine providence was unfolding the mysteries of biblical prophecy, and to the robust post-millennial optimism that did so much to support his enthusiasm for global missionary work.

The Message of Discipleship
Soon after Jesus began his public ministry, he called his first 'disciples'. He would teach and train them and then, after his death and resurrection, commission and empower them to go to the nations to make more 'followers'. The risen Jesus is still calling and sending people today. If we heed his call, the result can be just as transformative and exciting as it was for the first disciples. While there are no explicit occurrences of the term 'disciple' outside the Gospels and Acts, with only two further biblical references to 'followers' of Jesus, it is Peter Morden's conviction that we need the entire Bible if we are going to be whole-life disciples. He reflects on Scripture and asks: 'How...
