The Anabaptist Story Martyrs Mirror
Subtitle An Introduction to Sixteenth-Century Anabaptism

by William R. Estep
published by Wm. B. Eerdmans, 1975, 1996
332 pgs.


"Nearly Five Hundred Years Ago the Anabaptist movement was launched with the inauguration of believer's baptism and the formation of the first congregation of the Swiss Brethren in Zurich, Switzerland. This standard introduction to the history of Anabaptist by noted church historian William R. Estep offers a vivid chronicle of the rise and spread of this vigorous, important stream in church Christianity.

In this third edition Estep's Anabaptist Story has been substantially revised and enlarged to take into account the numerous Anabaptist sources that have come to light in the last half-century as well as the signifigant number of monographs and other scholarly research on Anabaptist themes that have appeared more recently. In interacting with these materials, Estep challenges a number of assumptions held by contemporary historians of sixteenth-century Anabaptism and offers fresh insights into the historical movement to which we owe the notion of religious liberty that prevails today."
The Story of Seventeen Centuriesof Christian Martyrdom, From the Time of Chrsit to A.D. 1660

"Classic graphic accounts of more than 4,000 Christians who endured suffering, torture, and a martyr’s death because of their simple faith in the gospel of Christ. Includes more than 50 finely detailed etchings by noted Dutch artist Jan Luyken.

Songs, letters, prayers, and confessions appear with the stories of many “defenseless Christians” who were able to love their enemies and return
good for evil.

This gigantic book calls believers to follow Jesus in all areas of life, even unto death. Come what may, true Christian commitment demands supreme discipleship and steadfast adherence to the teachings modeled by Jesus and his apostles."

Christ In the Camp A HISTORY OF AMERICAN REVIVALS with their philosophy and method
The Story of the Great Revival During the War Between the States

By J. William Jones

"In the midst of the titanic struggle of the American War Between the States, the spiritual war for the souls of men was waged with equal vigor. If war reveals the greatest evils that a man's heart can devise, it can also priivde a rich harvest-field for the saving Grace of God in men's hearts.

From 1861 to 1865, many thousands of soldiers professed Christ as their Savior and Lord and many more thousands were renwed in their commitment to serve God in the camps and battlefield.

Herein are recorded stories of the heroism of chaplains who stood in the line of battle to minister to the fallen or worked at the bedside of fatally ill comrades. Some of the army pastors were themselves counted among the slain. It tells of worship services in camps attended by ten, a hundred, or a thousand men gathered to hear the Word of God expounded. Here, too, we read of the Christian generals who supported the many facets of Gospel work: Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, J.E.B. Stuart, and others."

Marion and His Men Stories of Civil War Songs
(1st printing 1802)

This book is about guerilla warfare, night fighting, elusive tactics, patriotism, religious liberty and great faith in God. It's about freedom. Every Christian teenager should have an opportunity to read this book. America, as Israel of old, has been "destroyed for lack of knowledge." (Hos. 4:6)

A descendant of French Hugenots (Reformers massacred in cold blood on St. Bartholomew's Day in 1672 by the Roman Catholic Church), Francis Marion was an American revolutionary war hero. Born around 1732, the "Swamp Fox" was as well known and hated by the British as Sergeant York was to the Germans in WWI. His nickname was earned as he would strike against the British and vanish away into he morasses of the South.

He rose from private to Brigadier General. He cut his teeth on Indians and eventually commanded the militias of North and South Carolina, driving the British back to Charleston. Upon military retirement, he represented his parish in the state senate and the Constitutional Convention. He voted for federal union.

Frances Marion feared only God. He left a testimony deserving of print and worthy of our time and emulation.

Quotes and Quaint Stories of Great Americans Ray's Baptist Succession
Upon Christian conversion in the U.S. Air Force. I immediately became very interested in the Bible, history, Freedom and Americanism.

For several years I have clipped and copied quotations from many varied sources, praying that sometime I could compile and publish them.

That opportunity is now-----FOR OUR BICENTENNIAL! One of the goals of the Communists is to belitle the American founding fathers, presenting them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the common man. Our whole system is hated and marked for destruction. Gis Hall, a leading spokesman for communism in the United States said at the funeral of Eugene Dennis:

"I dream of the hour when the last congressman is strangled to death on the guts of the last preacher --- and since the Christian love to song about the blood, why not give them a little of it!"

Unfortunately, we have since embraced détente to our own national detriment. America's enemies are just as real as ever; be not deceived!

Americans must be reminded from whence we came. New generations must be taught. We suggest that readers help distribute this message everywhere. I regret that the work is not more comprehensive. Many others were worthy to be included.

To my knowledge we have infringed on no copyright. I have not sought a copyright because because I seek the widest possible use of this material. Please use it, quote it, copy it and pray with with me that God shall use it.

Revised 1912, 27th edition

Foreword by Dr. Ronnie Simpson

Historical Baptist principles and people have always been an intriguing and important part of my personal study. My interest in this subject has led me to diligently pursue the true nature of Baptist History. I have devoted much time in preparation of lessons taught at Carolina Bible College on Baptist Distinctives.

This study has introduced me to an enormous volume of books relative to the subject. Of these, D.B.Ray's Baptist Succession has proven to be one of the most accurate and informative.

The climate of religious liberalism has created a plethora of modern writers who have erroneously untied baptist people with Protestantism. ]Prior to the 20th century all Baptists agreed with the position of D.B. Ray. His work evidences a distinct line of Baptists traceable from the time of Jesus Christ. I personally have record of more than 1,000 Baptist churches, which can trace such a lineage.

I applaud this book as being the landmark for all Baptists in defense of the historical record. Baptist distinctives are plainly discussed in this book and will be a foundation for any Bible student desirous to see his Baptist roots apart from the influence of Catholic and Protestant compromise.

The Baptist Story Roman Catholicism Past & Present
By A.A. Davis

The Baptist Story, by A.A. Davis is initially a compilation of ten sermons discussing the traditional beliefs of Baptists. The supplementary material contained in the back of the book is an extensive fact-filled treasure of information.

Beyond this the book is a necessity in today's climate of compromise and misguided effort to "get along." I know may f the cliché's of Baptists. For instance, "If I wasn't a Baptist, I'd be ashamed." Or, "baptist born, Baptist bred and Baptist dead!"  
The Baptist Story decidedly and emphatically helps one to determine why I am a Baptist!

We Baptists are not Protestants. We are Baptists! Our contrast and brightly garnished banner has ever been dipped into the putrid pool of Catholicism (even though some of them who call themselves Baptists have). God help! If you take al Catholic doctrine and practice from any denomination you'd end up with a Baptist church. Conversely, if you take all Baptist doctrine and practice from any denomination you will end up with a Roman Catholic Church. We should be in contrast to Catholicism, Protestantism and the pseudo-baptists of our day. We perhaps need this book more today than when it was written. May God bless it's republication.

I trust after reading this book you will thank God for His hand in leading you to membership and ministry in a Baptist church. May it also be a sharpened tool in your hand to answer the gainsayers of this modern day of ecclesiastical compromise. And beyond all that, that you would rejoice in the fact that you are a Baptist!

Roman Catholicism Past & Present

...a travelogue, considering the Roman Catholic Church in light of Revelation 17

By David Cloud

 

This report takes a serious look at the Roman Catholic Church, both past and present. There is a powerful back-to-Rome movement throughout Christianity today, from liberal Protestantism to Charismaticism to Evangelicalism. These either accept the Roman Catholic Church non-critically or, more commonly, they acknowledge that Rome has serious doctrinal errors but speak of these in soft terms and refuse to treat rome as Protestants and Baptists once did, as the forerunner to the Harlot of Revelation 17.
The Pilgrim Church
Our Price: $24.99
The Pilgrim Church
By E. H. Broadbent; Foreword by Dave Hunt

 

It ought to be obvious to even the casual observer of history that the real story of the church is not the one that is recorded in secular history. But E. H. Broadbent's classic work, the Pilgrim Church, demonstrates the the true heart of this amazing drama is not even recorded in church history books.



  • This is the saga of those intrepid believers, "of whom the world was not worth," who not only were persecuted by civil authorities, but were denounce, defamed, and decimated by the professing church.


  • Who were the Waldensians? The Lollards? The Stundists? The Anabaptists? These names were given by their enemies to those who claimed only the name of Christ, and who ere prepared to suffer for His cause rather than submit to those man-made traditions that they believed contradicted the Word of God.


  • Writing in an engaging style, the author will thrill your heart with the stories of unknown heroes of the faith. It will spur you on to greater devotion to the Lord Jesus and a deeper concern for His suffering people in many countries today.
