Tom Hicks’ “What Is a Reformed Baptist?” explains Reformed Baptist theology. This theology is rooted in the 1689 Second London Baptist Confession.
The book targets laypeople and pastors. It covers nine key areas. These areas include historical roots and confessionalism. It also covers God’s law and covenant theology. Other key areas are law and gospel, and Calvinism. The book addresses the church and the regulative principle of worship. Finally, it discusses Christian liberty. The book clarifies Reformed Baptists’ alignment with Reformed tradition. It also highlights their baptistic ecclesiology. This emphasizes Scripture’s sufficiency and salvation by grace. It also emphasizes the church’s centrality.
The book is clear and pastoral. It is ideal for understanding Reformed Baptist distinctives.
