other baptists
Besides the regular Baptist Brotherhood, there are in the United States very many other and smaller denominations, which practice immersion, but are not in fellowship with, or reckoned as a part of, the great Baptist family.
The Seventh Day Baptists, so called on account of their observing Saturday, or the seventh day of the week, as their Sabbath, on the ground that the Jewish Sabbath was never abrogated. They are estimated at about 7,000.
The Free Will Baptists, who take their name from their views as to the freedom of the human will and practice open communion, number about 66,000. In the North the Free Will Baptist churches have generally united with the Northern Convention, and their membership is reckoned with that of the regular Baptist body.
The Six Principle Baptists, so called because their doctrinal confession is based on the six points mentioned in Hebrews 6:1, 2, are estimated at about 300.
The Anti-Mission Baptists, or rather Primitive Baptists, found chiefly in the Southwest, do not believe in missions, Sunday schools, or other reform movements lest they should seem to interfere with the Divine decrees. They are said to number 43,000.
The Disciples of Christ, sometimes called Campbellites, or Christians, number about 1,200,000.
The Winebrennerians, or the General Eldership of the Churches of God in North America, are estimated at about 30,000.
The Tunkers, or Dunkards, of all groups number about 126,000, and the United Brethren, about 330,000.
