Dead Theologian Society – West End Baptist Church

These men fought the good fight and kept the faith winning their hard ran race. These men shaped church history and turned the world upside down with their biblical teaching and preaching. These men and their works are worth getting to know, because it was these men who dared to go against the worldly flow and preach Christ and Him crucified. Thank God such men lived!
