1811-1888
"Let no man think that he abides in Christ, or is in vital union with him when he can live in sin and take delight in gratifying fleshly lusts." (Elder Gregg M. Thompson in The Primitive Preacher, 1888, pg. 47)
As we have seen, this is no longer the leading view of those who call themselves "Primitive Baptists"! Yet, Kevin and I, and others, still believe what Thompson here says. Was he not stating in 1888 what had been the position of the Primitive Baptists up to that time?
What was it in the end of the 19th century that led many PBs to forsake this original view?
