LANDMARKISM
There are sixty-one items (articles, essays & books)
     "Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set." Proverbs 22:28
     "Truly the old landmark once stood, and having fallen, it was deemed proper to reset it." (The Baptist Encyclopedia, 1881, p. 868.)
     "[T]here are many elements in Baptist history which bear an obvious and direct relationship to the tenets of the Landmark system and which clearly demonstrate that the architects of the movement, 'the Great Triumvirate,' were building on a foundation in Baptist life which was already laid." - LeRoy B. Hogue, "The Antecedents of Landmarkism"

      Some of these articles are listed other places; they are listed here for your convenience.

By Wendell H. Rone, Sr.
