"My advice is to be careful what you read online. I have found that even resources claiming to represent Reformed Baptist views are often very selective in their sources. For example, if a work lays claim to a Baptistic historical view but doesn’t include Roger Williams or Isaac Backus in any meaningful way, it shouldn’t be taken seriously. Men like Murton and Williams are the historical core of the idea of soul liberty and cannot be ignored if one wants to reach credible conclusions." -Ron Miller For more information, visit CBTSeminary.org

In this conversation, we speak with Dr. Matthew Bingham about his book "Orthodox Radicals: Baptist Identity in the English Revolution." Orthodox Radicals complicates of our understanding of Baptist identity, setting the early English Baptists in the cultural, political, and theological context of the wider puritan milieu out of which they arose. The book also speaks to broader themes, including early modern debates on religious toleration, the mechanisms by which early modern actors established and defended their tenuous religious identities, and the perennial problem of anachronism in historical writing. Bingham also challenges the often too-hasty manner in which scholars have drawn lines of theological demarcation between early modern religious bodies, and reconsiders one of this period's most dynamic and influential religious minorities from a fresh and perhaps controversial perspective.
