Baptist History Films

The road to religious freedom is one that is bathed in the blood of Baptist persecution. "As With Roses" is the compelling true story of Obadiah Holmes, a Baptist preacher who lived in 1651, just as the early American colonies were being established. His commitment to sharing the Baptist doctrine of faith was a serious threat to the standing order of the Congregational Church and its governing authority. When Obadiah openly denounces that authority, and the practice of infant baptism, he is arrested and subjected to cruel punishment that goes beyond the level of offenses. "As With Roses" is a story of religious persecution, of Baptist perseverance in the face of immense suffering, and of God's amazing deliverance. |

"In a nation dangerously unaware of its roots of liberty, As With Roses connects us with the very first American hero: Obadiah Holmes. You will lose if you miss this." Pastor James R. Beller |

| "As With Roses should be seen in every Baptist church in America. It gives an accurate history of the persecution suffered by the Baptist people at the hands of cruel government and state religion. We believe Shiloh Films will be used greatly of the Lord to preserve our heritage as a Baptist people."
Evangelist Boyd D. Collins |
