Baptists The Only Thorough Religious Reformers is a book written by John Quincy Adams, the sixth president of the United States. The book is a historical analysis of the Baptist denomination and its contributions to religious reform throughout history. Adams argues that Baptists have been the most consistent and thorough reformers, challenging the traditional structures and practices of the Christian church. He examines the Baptist's origins, beliefs, and practices, and how they have evolved over time. Adams also explores the Baptist's role in the American Revolution and their contributions to religious freedom and democracy. The book is a valuable resource for those interested in Baptist history and the history of religious reform in America.It is evident, then, that the Baptists suffered merely because they maintained that they ought to obey God rather than man. They found no direction in the Bible for the baptism of infants, and therefore they refused to observe the rite. The Reformed or Protestant churches sought to force them to do it, in opposition to their convictions. They maintained that this was also contrary to the spirit of the Gospel, and thus, in defence of the Bible, and the rights of conscience, they died.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
