• Regular Baptists
• Baptists, Regular

A group of Baptist associations all of whom claim to be the original English Baptists before the distinction between Calvinistic or Particular and Arminian or General became prominent. Found for the most part in North Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, and adjoining states, they are in general sympathy with the United Baptists, and Duck River and kindred associations of Baptists. In doctrine the Regular Baptists are in accord with the United Baptists. They are strict in admission to the Lord's Supper, practising close communion, and for the most part observing the ceremony of foot-washing. They are decidedly congregational in government. Four monthly periodicals are published by them.
