students, and teachers alike, who wish to<br />

conveniently explore the beliefs held by these<br />

early Particular Baptists and begin to<br />

incorporate such discoveries into their<br />

understanding <strong>of</strong> God’s word.<br />

A great deal <strong>of</strong> energy, effort, and financial<br />

commitment is required to bring such a work<br />

as this into reality. However, despite the<br />

sacrifice, we do so with all confidence, trusting<br />

that you the reader, esteem not only the<br />

sacrificial exertions <strong>of</strong> our forefathers in the<br />

faith, but also the biblical heritage illustrated in<br />

their doctrines.<br />

We publish this current work to all the<br />

world and for future generations as an<br />

affectionate memorial <strong>of</strong> their loyalty to<br />

conscience, their fidelity to revealed truth, and<br />

<strong>of</strong> their steadfastness amidst defamation,<br />

difficulty, and cruel persecution.<br />

Despite all this, those who confessed the<br />

much patience, courage, and cheerfulness<br />

carried on the work which Christ gave them,<br />
