What Is a Reformed Baptist?

An Overview of Doctrinal Distinctives

A Reformed Baptist is a Christian who believes in the great doctrines recovered by the Protestant Reformation, including the sufficiency of Scripture for the church, salvation by God's free grace, justification by faith alone, the importance of God's good law and the gospel of Jesus Christ, the centrality of the church in the life of the believer, and the great doctrine of Christian liberty.

This book argues that Reformed Baptists are not particularly unique, but are simply biblical Christians who fall within the theological stream of the historic Reformed faith, and who are also baptistic in their doctrine of the church. This is not a polemical work. Rather, it makes a positive case for the doctrines cherished by Reformed Baptists. It is hoped that this book will benefit motivated laymen, broadly evangelical pastors, Baptist pastors, and Reformed paedobaptist pastors who want to understand what their Reformed Baptist brethren believe.

Excellent Summary of Reformed Baptist Diatinctives

For anyone seeking to understand what a "Reformed Baptist" (modern term for a Particular Baptist), this is an excellent overview of the main distinctives.

Hicks discusses the doctrine of Sola Scriptura, confessionalism, the Doctrines of Grace, covenant theology, Christian liberty, the ordinances (or sacraments), as well as the distinctive in ecclesiology. This book will be very helpful for those seeking to better understand these issues, or for someone new to these ideas.

As for the audio book itself, there are a few places where the reader makes a mistake. The editing could have used some improvement, but it doesn't make the audio book unbearable. It is still worth the money, in my opinion.

it was precise

I dont really see anything that I can point out to be wrong. The book has been clear and concise

Great book!

Great book! I am a reformed Baptist pastor, and I believe that every Pastor and lay elder should read this book.
