The northern Baptists were fearful of these efforts, believing that the convention approach would undermine local church autonomy.

Q

What is Landmarkism, and who were the three principal proponents of it in the 19th century?

A

(1) Baptist churches are the only true churches.
(2) Removing ancient landmarks (Proverbs 22:28; Job 24:2) refers to abandoning the distinctiveness of the Baptist witness and joining hands with people in other denominations.
(3) They practiced closed communion – the Lord’s Table should be open only to members of the particular local body.
(4) They rejected all pulpit sharing. At this time in American history, most Protestants were evangelicals and preached the gospel. Pulpit sharing and union meetings on special occasions were extremely common. Landmarkers argued that Methodists, Presbyterians, Disciples, etc. were not true churches, and, therefore, no fellowship with them was admissible.
(5) Baptists are the original Christians, and there have been Baptist churches throughout church history under various names, such as Donatists, Waldensians, Lollards, and Anabaptists.
J. R. Graves, J. M. Pendleton, and A. C. Dayton

  • In 1895 these three societies merged to create the National Baptist Convention of the United States of America.
