Collection#: AR 40 Biographical Sketch The Baptist Congress, a pioneering Baptist intellectual think tank and forum for theological, social, and ethical discussions and debates among members of Baptist churches, existed from 1882 to 1912. The need for an intellectual outlet through which Baptists from various traditions could discuss important and relevant issues of the time was first proposed by Providence, Rhode Island pastor Elias Henry Johnson. Johnson and thirteen other prominent Baptist scholars met in New York City November 29, 1881 and held an informal discussion panel on germane topics. At the meeting, Johnson officially proposed the formation of a Baptist Congress. The first official meeting of the organization was held in Brooklyn, New York in 1882. The Baptist Congress met annually for the next thirty years across the United States and Canada, with the exception of 1891 when no meeting was held. Due to decreasing attendance, the Baptist Congress held its last meeting in Ithaca, New York in 1912.

From Church Competence to Soul Competence: the Devolution of Baptist Ecclesiology
Journal for Baptist Theology and Ministry Vol. 3 No. 1 (Spring 2005): 145-163 From Church Competence to Soul Competence: The Devolution of Baptist Ecclesiology John Hammett Professor of Systematic Theology Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary Post Office Box 1889 Wake Forest, NC 27588 The thesis of this paper is threefold: (1) that congregational polity in Baptist ecclesiology was undergirded, particularly in its early days, by a conviction that Christ had granted to each local church power and authority (what I call competence) to order its own affairs; (2) that over a long period of time, but particularly in the late nineteenth century, a variety of factors developed in American life that began to undermine the idea of church competence and replace it with an idea enshrined in the phrase “soul competence;” and (3) that this development should be regarded as a devolution in Baptist ecclesiology, for it seems linked to a variety of deleterious ideas and practices that have been and are continuing to weaken and trouble Baptist church life. This threefold thesis will be developed in the three main sections of this paper, with each section devoted to one of the three aspects of the thesis. As the documentation will suggest, I am looking primarily at what has happened to Baptists in North America, particularly my own context of Southern Baptists. I do not know how applicable it will be to Baptists from other geographical contexts, but I believe it will have some relevance for most evangelical groups in the North American context, because the factors that affected Baptists were not completely unique to them.

ABSTRACT a Re-Membering Sign: the Eucharist and Ecclesial Unity In
ABSTRACT A Re-membering Sign: The Eucharist and Ecclesial Unity in Baptist Ecclesiologies Scott W. Bullard, Ph.D. Mentor: Barry A. Harvey, Ph.D. This dissertation argues for the Lord’s Supper, or eucharist, as a vital basis of the church’s unity as the body of Christ. It focuses especially on the theology of James Wm. McClendon, Jr., who, though a member of a largely non-sacramental (“free church”) tradition, nonetheless insists upon Christ’s presence in the eucharist and that through the eucharist God “re-members” the church as the body of Christ. While the study lauds McClendon’s foresight and direction, it also argues that he ultimately shies away from a sacramental understanding of the Supper and that he skims over the unitive function of the eucharist. Added to the discussion, then, are two voices from outside the free church tradition: Henri de Lubac, a Catholic, and Robert Jenson, a Lutheran. Together with McClendon, these twentieth century figures and their theologies have had an enormous impact on contemporary discussions about ecclesial unity. In a final chapter, therefore, the study illustrates how they have influenced a number of contemporary Baptists dubbed “new Baptist sacramentalists,” a younger group of Baptist theologians who offer a fresh approach to the ongoing puzzle of the church’s disunity through the eucharist.

A Baptist View of the Royal Priesthood of All Believers Jonathan Leeman
A Baptist View of the Royal Priesthood of All Believers Jonathan Leeman Jonathan Leeman is the editorial director for 9Marks in Washington, DC and an adjunct professor of theology at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, and Reformed Theological Seminary. He earned his PhD in theology at the University of Wales. Dr. Leeman is the author of multiple books on the church, including Don’t Fire Your Church Members: The Case for Congregationalism (B&H, 2016) and Political Church: Local Assemblies as Embassies of Christ’s Rule (IVP, 2016). He serves as an elder at Cheverly Baptist Church and is married to Shannon, with whom he shares four daughters. What is the Baptist view of the priesthood of all believers, and what is the practical significance of that view? These are the questions the editors of this Journal asked for me to address in this article. In one sense, there is no Baptist view of the priesthood of all believers, only Baptist views. Malcolm Yarnell helpfully divides past Baptist voices into two major strands—the “formative” and the “fragmentary.”1 Seventeenth-century Baptist pastor John Smyth provides a paragon of the formative, while turn-of- the-19th-century seminary president Edgar Young (E. Y.) Mullins offers the fragmentary. Early Baptists like Smyth, together with their confessions, pointed to Christ’s offices of prophet, priest, and king, which then translate through the new covenant into the saints’ three-fold work of proclamation, worship, and government.2 Smyth argued that the priestly work of the saints consists in offering spiritual sacrifices through prayer, praise, and obedience.

Inventory to the James Petigru Boyce Papers
Inventory to the James Petigru Boyce Papers MSS. 922.6173. B78c Prepared by: Jason Fowler, Archives and Special Collections Librarian October 2004 (rev. May 2005) Archives and Special Collections The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary 2825 Lexington Road Louisville, Kentucky 40280 502-897-4573 [email protected] Inventory to the James Petigru Boyce Papers 2 I. Biographical Sketch James Petigru Boyce (1827-1888) was an accomplished Southern Baptist pastor and educator who served the Southern Baptist Convention in a variety of capacities during his lifetime. He was the son of Kerr Boyce, an affluent Charleston, South Carolina merchant and banker, and Amanda Jane Caroline Johnston. A variety of prominent individuals influenced James P. Boyce during his early life and college years. His namesake was James L. Petigru, the distinguished South Carolina lawyer who opposed both Nullification and Secession. Boyce's pastor was Basil Manly Sr., the pastor of the First Baptist Church of Charleston, South Carolina, and a lifelong proponent of education in the South. Two Baptist pastors most known for their debates over slavery also profoundly affected Boyce while he was at Brown University from 1845-1847. Francis Wayland, Sr., was his professor, and Richard Furman was the preacher under whom he experienced conversion. In November of 1847, the First Baptist Church of Charleston licensed James P. Boyce to preach. The following year, he married Lizzie Llewellyn Ficklen, the daughter of a Washington, Georgia doctor. From November 1848 to May 1849, he edited The Southern Baptist, a Baptist newspaper published in Charleston. The following September, he entered the Presbyterian Theological Seminary at Princeton, where he studied with both Archibald Alexander and Charles Hodge.
