Product Description
""Bible Societies and the Baptists"" is a historical account of the relationship between the Baptist denomination and Bible societies throughout the 19th century. Written by Charles Carroll Bitting and published in 1883, the book explores the early history of Bible societies, their role in spreading the Bible throughout the world, and the Baptist response to their efforts. Bitting also examines the controversies that arose between Baptists and Bible societies, including debates over the use of non-King James translations and the distribution of Bibles to non-Christian groups. The book provides a detailed analysis of the Baptist perspective on the role of the Bible in Christian life and the ways in which Bible societies aligned with or diverged from this perspective. Overall, ""Bible Societies and the Baptists"" offers a unique insight into the intersection of religion and social movements in 19th-century America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
