The founders and forerunners of the Southern Baptist Convention were fundamentally shaped by the thought of Puritan theologian Jonathan Edwards and his theological successors. While Baptists in the antebellum South boasted a different theological pedigree than Presbyterians or Congregationalists and while they inhabited a Southern landscape unfamiliar to the bustling cities and tall forests of New England they believed their similarities with Edwards far outweighed their differences. Like Edwards these Baptists were revivalistic Calvinistic loosely confessional and committed to practical divinity. In these four things Southern Edwardseanism lived moved and had its being. In the nineteenth-century when so many Presbyterians scoffed at Edwards's innovation and Methodists scorned his Calvinism Baptists found in Edwards a man after their own heart. By 1845 at the first Southern Baptist Convention Southern Edwardseans had laid the groundwork for a convention marked by the theology of Jonathan Edwards.
