scope=\"row\">To:<\/th><td><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">You may have learned that the first Baptist church was founded in Amsterdam in 1609. At that time, the wave of the Reformation which began in the sixteenth century, swiftly swept across England. King Henry VIII also wanted his country to leave the Catholic Church, and a series of reforms were thus implemented. However, some believed that his reform was incomplete and the Church of England was not pure enough, so they wanted to \u201cpurify\u201d the church. They came to be known as \u201cPuritans.\u201d However, some found that it was impossible for the government to establish the kind of pure church they wanted, so they left the Church of England and were called \u201cSeparatists.\u201d Among them were Thomas Helwys and John Smyth. The two left England for Amsterdam to avoid persecution from the English government and founded a Baptist church there.<\/p><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">However, Smyth later left that church. Helwys returned to England in 1611 and established the first General Baptist congregation in London. Why were they called \u201cGeneral Baptists\u201d? Because they believed that Christ died for all people. Their view was more or less influenced by the Mennonites or the Dutch Arminians at that time.<\/p><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">At about the same time (ca. 1640), some other people also established several Baptist congregations called \u201cParticular Baptists,\u201d which were different from the Baptist congregations founded by Helwys. These two groups were completely independent of each other. Particular Baptists were influenced by Calvinism and believed that Christ died only for the elect. As such, two different groups of Baptists were born in England.<\/p><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">These two groups developed independently even in North America and Europe. For example, Roger Williams in North America and, almost two hundred years later, Johann Gerhard Oncken in Germany, each studied the Scripture independently and came to the conclusion that the church must be composed of believers. This understanding was different from that of the contemporary Catholic Church, where even infants were allowed to join the church. A unique feature of Baptists is regenerate church membership (believer\u2019s church) and thus they insist on believer\u2019s baptism that excludes infants, because infants could not confess their faith, so baptism is meaningless to them. To become a Christian, one must understand salvation, accept Jesus Christ as one\u2019s personal savior, obey His commands, be baptized, and join a church. This is the origin of the Baptists.<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"row\">Cho:<\/th><td><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">There are different opinions on the origins of the Baptists; some trace their origin to the Puritan Movement, some to the English Reformation, and some to the Anabaptists. Which of them are the roots of the Baptist churches?<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"row\">To:<\/th><td><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">Generally speaking, the origins of the Baptist churches can be traced from two perspectives. One is the historical perspective, which I have just explained briefly. The other perspective concerns <em><strong>the origin of the Baptist faith<\/strong><\/em>, and there are generally four major theories. The first theory is the most popular. It traces the origin of the Baptist faith to the Puritans in England, when some Puritans became Separatists and founded the first Baptist church. The second theory believes that the Baptist faith was originally influenced by the Anabaptists. The third theory, called \u201csuccession theory,\u201d holds that there is a continuous and unbroken succession of the Baptist churches with different names from the days of John the Baptist to the present, including Montanists in the second century, Donatists in the fourth, Paulicians in the eleventh, Anabaptists in the sixteenth and so on. The last theory maintains that the Baptist teachings were originated from the Bible, and can be traced from the time of the New Testament and continue up to the present, holding by various groups of people who have no distinctive denominational identity. Each of these theories has its supporters, but in recent years most historians support the first two theories.<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"row\">Cho:<\/th><td><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">What are<strong><em><strong>the distinctive traits of the Baptist faith<\/strong><\/em><\/strong>?<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"row\">To:<\/th><td><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">When I first came to know Baptists, someone jokingly said, \u201cPeople will believe after baptism!\u201d This is definitely not the case. Baptists do not say that one will believe after one\u2019s baptism. But what is the distinctiveness of the Baptist faith? As I learned more about church history, I realized that the name \u201cBaptists\u201d was used by their opponents to taunt them. As I mentioned earlier, the Baptist churches emerged when people gained insights from the Scripture that the church must be composed of regenerate believers (<em><strong>believer\u2019s church<\/strong><\/em>), and those being baptized and joining the church must be professing believers (<em><strong>believer\u2019s baptism<\/strong><\/em>).<\/p><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">A distinctive trait of Baptists is their stress on <em><strong>biblical authority<\/strong><\/em>. As I mentioned earlier, Baptist congregations emerged from different communities, whether in England, Europe, or North America, when people gained insights by studying the Bible and then established Baptist churches. Therefore, Baptists have always been emphasizing biblical authority, and were even hailed as \u201cthe People of the Book\u201d or \u201cthe People of the Bible.\u201d In my opinion, Baptists are the most outstanding among those who emphasize and uphold the Bible as the sole authority, even though the motto \u201c<em>Sola Scriptura<\/em>\u201d came from Martin Luther in the sixteenth century. Baptists put great emphasis on the Bible and derived from it such teachings as believer\u2019s church and believer\u2019s baptism, as well as other teachings such as priesthood of all believers, <em><strong>separation of church and state<\/strong><\/em>, etc.<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"row\">Cho:<\/th><td><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">So, how are Baptists distinguished from other denominations?<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr valign=\"\u201dtop\u201d\"><th scope=\"row\">To:<\/th><td><p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">Baptists assert that all believers are equal, and should be actively involved in the church; <em><strong>all believers are called to be priests<\/strong><\/em>. As such, many believers are encouraged to participate in church ministries. The most unique and prominent feature of the Baptist churches is that, throughout their history, there have been many outstanding believers who actively participated in ministries and, together with pastors and deacons, they built up the church. Baptist churches believe that they are under the lordship of Christ, and their operations are not under the control of any bishops or any higher conventions or councils. Instead, they emphasize the <em><strong>autonomy of each local congregation and the active participation of each church member. <\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><p align=\"right\">Excerpt from Theology Salon \u201cReflection on the Origins of Baptists in a Turbulent Age\u201d (April 13, 2020)<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-936bb5e elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"936bb5e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"384\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.hkbts.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/photo-3-4.png?fit=768%2C384&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-69032\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.hkbts.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/photo-3-4.png?w=2100&amp;ssl=1 2100w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.hkbts.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/photo-3-4.png?resize=300%2C150&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.hkbts.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/photo-3-4.png?resize=1024%2C512&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.hkbts.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/photo-3-4.png?resize=768%2C384&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.hkbts.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/photo-3-4.png?resize=1536%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.hkbts.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/photo-3-4.png?resize=2048%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.hkbts.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/photo-3-4.png?resize=18%2C9&amp;ssl=1 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5915d86 elementor-align-center elementor-hidden-desktop elementor-hidden-laptop elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-mobile elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"5915d86\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-no-translation=\"\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hkbts.edu.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/202008_eNews_Eng.pdf\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Download PDF<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dean Cao Weitong, Assistant Professor of Christian Thought (Baptist History) Joshua Cho: Could you please review the history of the Baptist Church for us? Joshua: We may have heard that the Baptists were founded in Amsterdam, Netherlands in 1609. At that time, the spirit of the 16th-century Reformation quickly spread to England. King Henry VIII also wanted England to break away from Roman Catholicism, so he implemented a series of reforms. However, a group of people believed that the English Reformation was not complete or pure enough and proposed to &quot;purify&quot; the church, thus a group of &quot;Puritans&quot; emerged. However, they found that they could not persuade the government to establish the pure church they wanted, so they left the Church of England, and a group of &quot;Separatists&quot; arose. Among them were two people\u2014Thomas Helwys and John Smyth\u2014who left England to escape persecution, arrived in Amsterdam, and founded the Baptist Church. However, Smythe later left the church, and Helvey, who remained, returned to England in 1611 and formally established the General Baptists. Why &quot;General Baptists&quot;? Because they believed salvation was for all, a view more or less influenced by the Mennonites or the Arminianism of the Netherlands at the time. Around the same time (around 1640), several others also established Baptist churches called &quot;Particular Baptists,&quot; completely independent of Helvey&#039;s. Influenced by Calvinist theology, they believed God&#039;s salvation was only for a chosen group. Thus, two distinct Baptist groups emerged in England. These two groups operated independently even in North America and Europe. For example, Roger Williams in North America, and Johann Gerhard Oncken in Germany nearly two centuries later, each drew inspiration from the Bible, recognizing that the church must be composed of believers; this differed from the Catholic Church of that time, where infants could also join. The unique aspect of Baptism is that the church is composed of a group of born-again believers (believer&#039;s church), thus beginning believer&#039;s baptism; that is, baptism is not for infants, because infants lack the capacity for self-belief, so baptism is meaningless to them. One must clearly understand salvation, accept Jesus Christ as one&#039;s personal Savior, obey His commands, and be baptized into the church. This is the essence of Baptism.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":148,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[272],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-69061","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-272"],"yoast_head":"<!--
