This website is managed and edited by Elder Claude Mckee. On this site will
be found an essay stating the editor's beliefs as to what constitutes Essential Baptist Principles™.
The
only rule of faith and order is the Holy inspired scriptures. All other writers
or publications must always be judged by the infallible word of God and only be
given support if they agree with the Holy writ. Therefore this essay is not
presented as a standard but simply expresses in my words the principles I
believe the original Baptists preached and practiced.The Lord willing, monthly, articles on these principles and practices will be presented on this web site. Emphasis's will be primarily upon Primitive Baptist writings but other pertinent Baptist historical writings will be presented in order to show the progression of Baptist Doctrines and Practices over the last 200 plus years.
Our sincere desire and prayer to God is that many of his children will return to the truths of the Bible and the simply practices which Christ established for His church to follow in this life.
