Benjamin Beddome Pt.4 | Particular Pilgrims

Benjamin Beddome was appreciated as a fine preacher by his congregation and his gift in this regard was widely admired in the Particular Baptist churches and beyond. We have seen that it was his preaching and the blessing of God upon it that caused the Bourton church to pursue him as their pastor. But there were other admirers. Robert Hall, Jr., perhaps the premier Baptist preacher of the next generation, wrote the following, “As a preacher, he was universally admired for the piety and unction of his sentiments, the felicity of his arrangement, and the purity, force, and simplicity of his language, all of which were recommended by a delivery perfectly natural and graceful.”
