  • John Brine (1703-1765) born in Kettering, Northamptonshire, was an English Particular Baptist. Brine was called into the ministry by the church at Kettering and after occasional preaching there for some time, he received a call to pastor a Particular Baptist church at Coventry. In 1730, he received a call to succeed William Morton, as pastor of the Baptist congregation at Curriers' Hall, Cripplegate, in London. His ministry continued there for the next thirty-five years during which time he took a principal lead in all the public activities and dialogue that concerned the Particular Baptist denomination. He died on February 21, 1765 and he was buried in Bunhill-Fields cemetery. Although he left orders that no special funeral sermon should be preached for him, his friend, Dr. John Gill did take that occasion to preach a sermon to his own congregation from 1 Corinthians 15:10 - By the grace of God I am what I am. John Brine was a strong Calvinist in his theology and is associated with the extremes that became known at that time as Hyper-Calvinism.
