Reformed Baptist Systematic Theologies

^{Reformed
Baptists haven’t produced the volume of
writing that the Reformed Presbyterians have, but quantity isn’t
everything! The independent nature of
most Baptist works hasn’t historically supported the collegiate framework that
fosters academic writing. Perhaps a case of stewarding the precious resources
of time and energy for the work of evangelism and missions. The gap has been
filled by many baptist authors who laboured on topical issues. But there are
Systematic Works by Baptists and the following links indicate the quality and
rigour of their efforts. Though differing from conservative Reformed
Presbyterians and Paedobaptist Independents on the understanding of the
covenant, the identity of the church and, of course, the baptism of babies,
there is an overwhelming degree of common ground on the essentials of the
Christian Faith.}
