Guilt-driven obedience to the law is not true obedience, and it harms people by implying that they can overcome their own guilt, which turns them away from Christ to themselves. ~ Hicks, What is a Reformed Baptist?, 147

[Tom Hicks @TomHicks2LCF]

I am so thankful to pastor a church that is committed to the whole counsel of God, as expressed in the Reformed Baptist Faith, which is why I wrote this dedication in my book. In God’s gracious providence, I owe this church my life. They let me serve as an intern during seminary for four summers, patiently letting me learn and grow. During those summers, Fred Malone modeled grace and taught me to live under the gospel of grace, rather than legalistically. God introduced me to my beloved bride at this church. These people mean more to me than I can express. I love them very much. They love Jesus. They love each other. They love the whole truth of God. And they love me and my family. They have weathered many storms together, and they remain committed to Christ and His Word. We will not be a perfect church until we get to heaven, but Christ is with us and He continues to keep us by His power. I thank God for First Baptist Church of Clinton, Louisiana.

What is a Reformed Baptist?

Knowing and understanding wholesome theology is essential for the Christian life. This is a wonderful book for church members, for those seeking church membership, for study classes and for new believers.

I’m really proud of my husband’s new book.

[FoundersMin @FoundersMin]

We are excited to announce our newest Founders Press title by Dr. Tom Hicks (@TomHicks2LCF): What Is a Reformed Baptist? An Overview of Doctrinal Distinctives.

From the author:

A Reformed Baptist is a Christian who believes in the great doctrines recovered by the Protestant Reformation, including the sufficiency of Scripture for the church, salvation by God’s free grace, justification by faith alone, the importance of God’s good law and the gospel of Jesus Christ, the centrality of the church in the life of the believer, and the great doctrine of Christian liberty. This book argues that Reformed Baptists are not particularly unique, but are simply biblical Christians who fall within the theological stream of the historic Reformed faith, and who are also baptistic in their doctrine of the church. This is not a polemical work. Rather, it makes a positive case for the doctrines cherished by Reformed Baptists. May this book benefit motivated laymen, broadly evangelical pastors, Baptist pastors, and Reformed paedobaptist pastors who want to understand what their Reformed Baptist brethren believe.

Foreword by Dr. Tom Ascol (@tomascol). Endorsed by James Renihan, Fred Malone, D. Scott Meadows, Tom Nettles, Sam Waldron and more.

Coming March 2025.

All pre-orders will receive the e-book and audiobook for free upon release!

I enjoyed this conversation with the Sheologians!

In Christ’s death, He abolished the expression of the Ten Commandments in ordinances, but He did not abolish the Ten Commandments themselves. They are written on the hearts of all members of the new covenant, established in His blood.

We need a renewed emphasis on the law of God or else legalism will inevitably reemerge. Specifically, we need a clear emphasis on the law as a covenant, and the law as a standard or rule.

The abuse of women by men does not exist *because* of complimentarianism or *because* men are in positions of authority. Rather, abuse exists because of evil in the heart. Raising women to positions of power will not solve abuse. Only Jesus can.
