Overview

Andrew Fuller was a significant Baptist preacher in England, contemporary of George Whitefield and Charles Wesley. He is best known for his enthusiastic views on evangelical Calvinism and his rejection of hyper-Calvinism popular at the time. Fuller’s theology matched that of Jonathan Edwards, John Owens, and John Bunyan. He believed in the inerrancy of Scripture and salvation by faith alone. Fuller is most famous for his defense of Calvinism and evangelical thinking, believing that Scripture supported both views. He promoted these ideas with vigor throughout his life, believing that a theology based entirely on scripture alone was essential to proper doctrine. Fuller also was involved in the Baptist Missionary Society founded by William Carey, believing that missions was an important part of Christianity.

Students, professors, and those interested in Calvinism studies and Reformed thinking will find these works to be invaluable. This comprehensive set includes all of Fuller’s writings: letters, sermons, essays, books, views on preaching, expositions on scripture, and sermon reviews.
