JH | Concerning the authors of the 1644 London Baptist Confession: Quote: |
The churches subscribing to this Confession were Devonshire Square; Broad Street, Wapping; Great St. Helen's; Crutched Friars; Bishopsgate Street; Coleman Street; and Glazier's Hall....The Confession is signed, among others, by John Spilsbury, Samuel Richardson, William Kiffin, Thomas Patient, and Hanserd Knollys. -- Bye-paths in Baptist History: A Collection of Interesting, Instructive, and Curious Information (1871), p. 111, by Joseph Jackson Goadby.
| Benjamin Cox wrote the 1646 Appendix.
The 1689 London Baptist Confession was signed by Hanserd Knollys and William Kiffin, among others. It was originally published in 1677 anonymously.
This article on the differences between and origins of the 1644 and 1689 Baptist Confessions is useful to read.
