  • “Benjamin Taylor (1786-1848) a Jones/Smith Preacher In
    Benjamin Taylor (1786-1848) a Jones/Smith Preacher in Antebellum Michigan Thomas H. Olbricht Pepperdine University My remarks focus on Benjamin Taylor (1786-1846) who was one of the early 1 Michigan restorationists. I don’t know how to relate his efforts to later restorationist churches in the state, but some continuity is almost guaranteed. This earliest Michigan restorationist history—most of the decade of the 1830s—remains to be explored. Identifying ties with later Stone-Campbell Michigan churches is possible, I am convinced, because of the several journals published by the leaders of the Abner Jones/Elias Smith movement of which Taylor was a part and by leaders of the Stone- Campbell movement. Taylor was born in Beverly, Massachusetts, twenty miles northeast of Boston into 2 a family of Baptists. Somewhat later they moved to New Hampshire and then to Salem, Massachusetts, where they became members of the Christian church founded just a few years before. Abner Jones preached for the Salem congregation at that time. Taylor responded to the Christian call in 1802 at a Freewill Baptist revival but did not become a 3 member of that church. He went to sea at least twice making his last voyage to France. After a narrow escape he became more interested in religion and in 1809 became a member of the Salem church. Taylor preached at various places in southeastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island. In the spring of 1831 he made a short trip to Illinois and Michigan. His family, now with 6 children, moved that fall to the St.

  • The Christians of New England
    The Christians Of New England By James Gardner Introduction The military conflict of the American Revolution came to an end in March, 1783, when news reached America of a preliminary peace treaty and armistice signed in Paris. Although six years of political quarrels ensued before ratification of the constitution brought the United States officially into being, few doubted that the end of the war assured not only the birth of a great nation, but a new era in the life of man. Both its leaders and their European friends and admirers viewed the revolution not as a petty struggle to determine which masters should rule America but as a glorious attempt to establish the people as their own masters and light a beacon of liberty to the world. The greatest experiment of freedom in political history had begun. The experiment in religious freedom which this book partially describes, while bravely endeavoring to sink down roots to the eternal springs of unchanging truth, was profoundly influenced by the soil in which it grew: the new American republic and the character of its people. The most obvious encouragement to the rise of new religious movements in America came from the declaration of absolute religious freedom contained in the first amendment to the federal constitution and similar expressions in various state constitutions. Although some states, such as Massachusetts, continued for a time to support particular denominations, freedom of worship was almost universally secured, and the last links between church and state soon dissolved. European governments had often grudgingly suffered the existence of religious splinter groups and sometimes used their colonies, as Great Britain did America, as giant quarantines where they might usefully employ unwanted fanatics; but Americans raised religious toleration to the level of religious celebration, cheerfully proving themselves to be wise by allowing their neighbors to be mistaken.

  • Chapter 3 ORIGINS of the CHRISTIAN DENOMINATION in NEW ENGLAND Elizabeth C
    Chapter 3 ORIGINS OF THE CHRISTIAN DENOMINATION IN NEW ENGLAND Elizabeth C. Nordbeck Elizabeth C. Nordbeck is Associate Professor of Church History at Lancaster Theological Seminary, Lancaster, Pennsylvania. THE PIONEERS OF New England’s Christian Connexion, asserted the Rev. Austin Craig before a ministerial gathering in 1850, certainly “did not purpose the formation of a new sect.” Never- theless, he admitted, “moral affinities presently consociated them,” while misunderstanding and opposition from other religious groups gradually pushed them toward a more theologically and structurally defined position.(1) Some Christians [Hereafter this chapter will follow the Christian Connexion’s own most common usage: the word Christian, upper case, will refer to the Connexion itself; “christian,” lower case, will refer to the generic body of believers.] had begun to call their movement a denomination as early as the mid-1820s. As a whole, however, the group adamantly rejected such labels, advocating instead a broad and fun- damental christian inclusivity and eschewing all “party names.” Austin Craig’s address, deliv- ered on the eve of a historic convention at Marion, Ohio, effectively united the three distinct re- gional movements that “carried the name of Christ only,” and was thus especially notable for its attempt to summarize the several “principles” generally held among them. Resolutely biblical, privatistic, antidogmatic, and revivalistic, most of the Christians - especially in New England - had steadfastly resisted attempts to systematize or codify what they believed or how they ordered themselves. On both pragmatic and theological grounds they insisted on a believer’s right to pri- vate judgment and on the concomitant necessity for tolerance and cooperation among believers whose private judgments might differ.

Stone, Thomas Campbell, “Raccoon” John Smith, James O’Kelly1, and perhaps one or two others. This alone gives the impression that just a few men in a somewhat concentrated location began the movement to go back to the Bible for all matters of faith and practice. This is not the case, although these individual movements did come together, having the same goal in mind.2 In New England, a man by the name of Abner Jones launched a movement to go back to the Bible and follow only what it says. His is a seemingly ignored story, receiving only a passing remark in most Restoration Movement history accounts. What follows is his story. His Early Life: From Childhood to “Conversion” The Declaration of Independence was signed on July 4, 1776.

By henry S. BURRAGE, D. D. PORTLAND, ME.: Marks Printing House, Printers. 1904. PR EFACE. The preparation of this history of the Baptists in Maine was commenced many years ago, and the Maine Baptist Missionary Convention, at its meeting in Bath, Oct. 7, 1891, expressed its approval of the undertaking ; but when the task was only about half completed other literary labor claimed the attention of the writer, and the work on that account was suspended. With the approach of the centen- nial of the Convention, it was suggested that the cen- tennial year would be a fitting one for the publication of such a work, and early in 1903 the writer returned to his task, and has now carried it forward to completion. When the work was resumed, the scope of the under- taking was widened, and it was decided to add a com- panion volume. The secretary of the Convention, Rev. A. T. Dunn, D. D., was asked to prepare an account of each minister hitherto connected with our Maine Baptist churches; and the secretary of the executive commit- tee. Rev. E. C. Whittemore, D.
