here are a few recommended links for further reading and research:
www.founders.org - a site with information on the historic stand of the baptist denomination
www.reformedreader.org - a site with more information of the history of baptists, including several historic documents and many writings by our baptist predecessors
www.monergism.com - a very extensive site with a great deal of study material from the historic
puritan, reformed, and calvinist viewpoint
www.puritanlibrary.com - self explanatory
www.spurgeon.org - a site devoted to content from "the prince of preachers"
www.solid-ground-books.com - a phenomenal source for great books, including reprints of some of the greatest puritan writings. In my opinion, the best prices with the best service!
enjoy,
