James Foster (Baptist minister)
James Foster (6 September 1697, Exeter – 5 November 1753, Pinners' Hall, Middlesex) was an English Baptist minister.
==Early life==
Foster was born and baptized at Exeter, 6 September 1697. Most of our biographical knowledge of him comes from memoirs attached to a sermon preached at his funeral by his friend and colleague, Caleb Fleming.〔Caleb Fleming, ''A sermon preached at Pinners-Hall on occasion of the death of the late Reverend James Foster, D.D. who departed this life Nov. 5, 1753 : with memoirs of his life and character'', London, 1753〕 His grandfather had been a conformist minister at Kettering in Northamptonshire, and his father, James Foster, was a successful Devonshire dissenting businessman (a fuller). James the younger went to Thorpe's free school in Exeter from 1702, where he learned his Latin grammar; he then attended the Presbyterian Joseph Hallett II's academy for dissenting ministerial students, also in Exeter. There, he met other radicals, including Hubert Stogdon, and achieved a reputation for rejecting human authority in matters of religious controversy, belief, and practical piety, privileging what he believed to be the indubitable consequences of reason and argument over passive faith and received wisdom.
