Primitive Baptists and the 1689

[JM]

Sylvester Hassell,

Every Primitive Baptist family ought to have and keep and read the London Baptist Confession of Faith, and, asking the guidance of the Holy Spirit, to search the Scriptures reverently and diligently to ascertain whether the doctrinal statements of the Confession are true or not, and having learned that these statements are scriptural and eternal truths, they should never, for any earthly consideration, deny or compromise them, nor be moved from them, in the least degree, by any member or minister or editor or author, whether Arminian or Predestinarian. God is our Creator, Preserver, Benefactor, Saviour, and Judge; to Him more than to all others are we accountable; and His approval, incomparably above that of all others, should we seek, as we will certainly feel the need of it most in death, in judgment, and in eternity. His Word and its momentous truths will endure forever; and for more than two hundred years the great body of the people of God on earth have been assured that those truths are set forth in the London Confession of Faith.​
