Penfield Minutes Annotated Penfield Baptist Church Minutes Penfield, 11th May, 1839 At the request of sundry brethren at Penfield, the following ministering brethren attended, and formed a Presbytery, (to wit) C. D. Mallary, V. R. Thornton, W. M. Tryon, and B. M. Sanders, for the purpose of constituting a Church at this place. An appropriate Sermon was preached by B. M. Sanders; after which bro. C. D. Mallary was called to the Chair; and bro. Sanders appointed Clerk. The Presbytery formed to constitute the Penfield Baptist Church was made up of men with strong ties to Mercer Institute/Mercer University. Charles Dutton Mallary served as Agent 1837-1840 and was largely instrumental in raising Mercer’s first endowment fund. He wrote the book Memoir of Jesse Mercer. Vincent R. Thornton served on the Executive Committee of the Georgia Baptist Convention (1833-1838). Mercer Institute was under the direct supervision of this committee. Billington McCarthy Sanders was the President of Mercer Institute and served as general superintendent, teacher, steward and farmer. He was also the first President of Mercer University. Charles Dutton Mallary, Vincent R. Thornton, and Billington McCarthy Sanders were Mercer University Trustees and served until their deaths. William Melton Tryon was a ministerial student in the first class of Mercer Institute. In 1841 he went to Texas as a missionary and was one of the founders of Baylor University. The following persons handed in letters: - James Davant, Martha Davant, James H. Low, Ansel Albritton, Noah Hill, Tilitha Hill, his wife; William Richards, Ann Richards, Samuel Richards, Catherine Richards, Alfred Buckner, J. G. Polhill, Absalom E. Reeves and Eliza H. Reeves, his wife; Adiel Sherwood and Emma C. Sherwood; Edna Williams, John W. Attaway, B. F. Tharp, A. Wellborn, and H. Gibson. Articles of Faith and a Church Covenant were presented, and, with some additions suggested by the Presbytery, and fully accorded in by the candidates for constitution, and thus amended being fully approved by the Presbytery, prayer was made by bro. V. R. Thornton, and a charge delivered by bro. Wm. M. Tryon; bro. C. D. Mallary presiding in the Presbytery and guiding the examination of the candidates for constitution. B. M. Sanders, Sec’ry Articles of Faith 1st We believe the Bible to be the Word of God, written by men divinely inspired, and our only rule of faith and practice. 2nd We believe in one living and true God, existing in three persons- the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost- and these Three equal in wisdom, power and glory. 3rd We believe in the fall of man from his original righteousness, and in the utter depravity of his nature. 4th We believe that a man is wholly unable to recover himself from his lost and ruined state; but that his inability to obey God’s laws, consisting in the depravity and rebellion of his nature, furnishes no excuse for rejecting the call of the Gospel. 1 5th We believe in a covenant of redemption between the Father and the Son; the doctrine of election; effectual calling; justification by the imputed righteousness of Christ; regeneration by the Holy Spirit; the unchangeable love of God to his people, and their perseverance in grace to glory. 6th We believe in the resurrection of the body; the final judgment; the eternal happiness of the righteous, and the endless misery of the wicked. 7th We believe that a properly constituted Church of Christ, is a congregation of immersed believers, associated by covenant in the fellowship of the Gospel, and governed by the laws of Christ. The offices of the Church are Bishop, or Pastor, and Deacons; the ordinances are Immersion and the Lord’s Supper; - the former to be administered to believers only, by an authorized administrator; and the latter to such persons only as are thus immersed. 8th We believe that the first day of the week is the Lord’s Day, and to be kept holy and to religious purposes – works of necessity and mercy only being allowed. Church Covenant Having been, as we trust, brought by divine grace to embrace our Lord Jesus Christ, to give up ourselves wholly to Him, we solemnly and joyfully covenant with each other to walk together in Him, with all humility and brotherly love; to watch over each other for good, and to stir up each other to love and good works; not forsaking the frequent assembling of ourselves together to worship God according to his revealed will as occasion may require; to warn, rebuke and admonish each other according to the rules of the gospel, that the growth of the whole body in Christian knowledge and holiness, may be thereby promoted, to the end we may stand complete in all the will of God. For the same purpose, we will uphold the public worship of God, and the ordinances of his house, and hold constant communion with each other therein; we will cheerfully contribute of our property for the maintenance of a faithful ministry of the Gospel among us, and for the extension of the blessed Redeemer’s Kingdom Universally. We will not omit family and closet religion at home, nor allow ourselves in the too common neglect of the great and important duty of religiously training our children for the service of God and the enjoyment of heaven. We will, also, sympathize with each other in seasons of temptation and affliction, and be ready to distribute to the necessities of the saints. We will especially pray with and for each other; for the Church Universally; for the promised effusion of the Holy Spirit; for the prosperity of Zion, and the ingathering of the elect. And may the God of peace, who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus Christ, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, make us perfect in every good work to do his will, that we may not only enjoy a name and a place in his Church on earth, but finally unite with the glorious church of the First Born in Heaven, in ascribing blessing and honor, might, majesty and dominion to Him who sitteth on the Throne, and to the Lamb forever!

  • Ascol, Thomas (Sep 2007)
    Tom Ascol September 04, 2007 Tom Ascol has served as Pastor of Grace Baptist Church since 1986. Prior to moving to Florida he served as pastor and associate pastor of churches in Texas. He has a BS degree in sociology from Texas A&M University (1979) and has also earned the MDiv and PhD degrees from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Ft. Worth, Texas. His major field of study was Baptist Theology. He taught two years as an adjunct professor for New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary in their SW Florida extension. Tom serves as the Executive Director of Founders Ministries, an organization committed to reformation and revival in local churches. He edits the Founders Journal, a quarterly theological publication of Founders Ministries, and has written numerous articles and contributed to several books. He regularly preaches and lectures at various conferences throughout the United States and other countries. He also authors the Founders Ministries Blog. 1. What do you see as the greatest strength of the Southern Baptist Convention right now? The greatest strength of the SBC that I see is our unashamed declaration that the Bible is God's infallible, inerrant Word of God. Without commitment to this formal principle of reformation, the many other good things that the SBC does would be undermined and eventually eroded completely. The convention has in place a wonderful structure that is ready to engage many spheres of culture through various ministries (NAMB, IMB, ERLC, Seminaries, LifeWay, etc.). For that structure to serve kingdom purposes as faithfully as it ought, the doctrinal and spiritual advanced that have been taken place over the last 25 years must be strengthened.

  • Baptist Successionism
    The Journal of Baptist Studies 3 (2009): 3-15. THE SUCCESSIONISM VIEW OF BAPTIST HISTORY * James R. Duvall Introduction When Clarence Walker began publishing The Trail of Blood in 1931, neither he nor J. M. Carroll, the author, could have imagined the impact the booklet would have on Baptists in the United States and around the world. The first thousand copies had been sold quickly by another publisher and sales continued steadily from Ashland Avenue Baptist Church in Lexington, KY. Today there have been nearly three million copies sold. The booklet has been enlarged by the present publisher,1 and it has been translated into several other languages: Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Russian and possibly others. It is now on the Internet in at least three languages. The Trail of Blood describes in a brief outline form what successionist historians had written for nearly two centuries. They believed there had been a succession of churches that held the basic doctrines of Baptists, and they were not associated in any way with the Roman Catholic institution. The Trail of Blood does not claim to be a complete history as such, but what might be called a “Baptist Manifesto.” It was written in such a way that pastors and teachers could present a thumbnail sketch of their Baptist ancestors. Carroll's idea was so successful that several authors have used a similar format, 2 while other authors have spent a lot of ink seeking to counter these lessons. 3 W. *Thanks to my son, James Kenneth, for assistance in research and preparation of this essay.
