Andrew Fuller

Andrew Fuller served as pastor of the Baptist congregation at Kettering, Northamptonshire, for over thirty years. He is best known for The Gospel Worthy of All Acceptation (1785), in which he argued against Hyper-Calvinism and for the duty of all people to repent and believe — a theological contribution that helped prepare the ground for the modern missionary movement. Fuller was a founding secretary of the Particular Baptist Society for the Propagation of the Gospel among the Heathen in 1792, later known as the Baptist Missionary Society, and remained William Carey’s most steadfast supporter through the early years of missionary work in India.
