About this library

Preserving the writings of the Particular Baptists.

The Particular Baptists Library is a project of the International Reformed Baptist Seminary (IRBS), dedicated to making the writings of 17th and 18th-century Particular Baptist ministers and theologians accessible to students, pastors, and researchers.

What you will find here

Sermons, confessions, treatises, and histories from the foundational generation of Particular Baptist life in Britain and America — works by figures such as Benjamin Keach, Hanserd Knollys, William Kiffin, John Gill, Andrew Fuller, and many others.

Search and browse

The library is built around full-text search. Type any word, phrase, or author name to find relevant passages across the entire collection. You can also browse alphabetically by author to explore the writings of a particular figure.

Reading editions

Where text has been extracted from the historical sources, it is presented in a clean, proportioned reading layout optimised for phones and tablets — free from the scanning artefacts of the original facsimiles.
