To
some the appellation Reformed Baptist is a contradiction in terms.
To others it remains a valid name for Baptists who have espoused
the essentials of Calvinistic theology, with the exception, of course,
of its doctrines of paedo-baptism and the church. Various modifiers
have been selected by Baptists who cling to the gospel of sovereign
grace and the "Baptist Distinctives": Particular, Regular, Conservative,
Orthodox, Calvinistic, Independent, and others.
Are Baptists Reformed? Clarifies a number of important issues, especially
those concerned with the Word of God and its application, and with
the nature and manifestation of the church. With thoroughness and
insightful historical perspective, Dr. Good probes the dilemma faced
by many orthodox Baptists and concludes that Baptists do indeed
differ from Reformed Christians in their view of Scripture and the
church considered as organism and organization. Thorough discussion
of these topics brings to light significant differences in bibliology
and ecclesiology.
Although the historical perspective is present throughout, it comes
to clearest focus in the final chapter. Of necessity the history
of Baptists is in capsule form, but the survey clearly indicates
the distinctive philosophy of church history that is the heritage
of Baptists.
