The Old Regular Baptists are a Christian denomination based primarily in the Appalachian region of the United States. ==History==
Many Regular Baptists merged with the Separate Baptists near the beginning of the 19th century. The party names were dropped in favor of United Baptists. The use of the name ''Regular'' has persisted among some Baptist groups, particularly among primitive sects that reject modern methods, including missionary and educational auxiliaries for the churches. Most Old Regular Baptists can be traced back to the New Salem Association of United Baptists which originated in eastern Kentucky in 1825. The name was changed to ''Regular United'' in 1854, to ''Regular Primitive'' in 1870, to ''Regular Baptist'' in 1871 and then in 1892 to ''Old Regular''. The minutes of New Salem Association in 1892 indicate that they feared the extremism of some predestinarians, which taught that God is the author of sin. Those associations and churches that do not trace their lineage through the New Salem (such as Mountain, Mud River, Twin Creek,Spencer and others, along with some churches that are in the larger associations)may have originated in the North District Association or like Twin Creek which formed from a split in the Licking River Particular Baptist Association in 1850.Twin Creek was one of the first Associations in Kentucky to title itself" Old Regular Baptist" in 1850. The Mud River Association originated from a split in the Pocatalico Particular Baptist Association in 1888.(The Mud River used the title Primitive Baptist when lettering to the New Salem Association for many years and later titled itself ''Regular or Old Regular Baptist.'' ) Yet other churches have left Primitive and United Baptist Associations and found a home among the Old Regular Baptist. The word ''old'' was added to Regular Baptist soon after many Regular Baptist had joined and or began to correspond with mission boards. This was done to distinguish the Old (or original) Regular Baptist from the New School Baptist that had emerged throughout the United States. Old Regular Baptists have had several divisions through the years. In the late 19th century to early 20th century, they had major splits over Absolute Predestination of all things, Actual Eternal Vital Union and Eternal Creation theory; differences over the Atonement and Election doctrines also led to divisions. Three of New Salem's daughters the Union, Mates Creek, and Sandlick divided, the New Salem also dropped correspondence with the Burning Springs Association her mother because she had members that belonged to secret orders. In the 1960s, a debate started over when eternal life began, or was regeneration before belief and repentance or after. Some Old Regular Baptist hold the same views as the Primitive Baptist on regeneration. Historians consider the Old Regular Baptist a branch of the Primitive Baptist that held to a stricter order but more liberal in doctrine, allowing for different views on the atonement. While the doctrine of some Old Regular Baptist would be in harmony with the majority of Primitive Baptist today , others among the Regulars hold to a more modified Calvinism,and Fuller's view of the atonement and yet they are others holding to General Atonement, these differences led to the light-is-life split that took place in the Union Association. This division soon spread to other associations brought on by requests sent to them from the Union Association, resulting in the isolation of the Mud River Association and the formation of the Bethel Association . Other associations like the New Salem chose not to divide over this issue, Often churches and associations and even elders are distinguished by which side of this debate they are on. Those that hold to the doctrine that an individual is first begotten or quickened into life at the start of their travail are called the "hard shell side" of Old Regular Baptist, or the Old School Regulars. This appears to be the original view of the first Regular Baptist in America. Those who hold that life starts at the end of their travail (repentance) are called the "soft shell side". Today there is still debate among the Old Regular Baptist regarding when one receives faith, men and women's dress, the receiving of divorced members, and the doctrinal differences over hope and knowledge. In the 1990s, a debate arose in the Northern New Salem over one of its member churches' use of fermented wine in communion (this was the original Regular Baptist custom) vs. grape juice. A query was sent into the association by a sister church against the church that used wine. All evidence shows that the church that sent the query had not taken the proper steps according to Old Regular Baptist decorum. The Association involved itself, failing to send the query back to the church that sent it, and violated its own orders. This led to two member churches breaking fellowship with the Northern New Salem. The two member churches, and one formed later, lettered to the Original Mountain Liberty Association and was found to be orthodox and orderly and were dismissed to form the Sovereign Grace Association in 1997.The Sovereign Grace Association's doctrine would be in total harmony with the Old Line Primitive Baptist of today or close to the Original Philadelphia Association of the past.
