'''Strict Baptists''', also known as '''Particular Baptists''', are [[Baptists]] who believe in a [[Calvinism|Calvinist]] or [[Reformed theology|Reformed]] interpretation of [[Christian soteriology]].<ref name="ChisholmHugh">{{citation|contribution=Baptist|editor-last=Chisholm|editor-first=Hugh|editor-link=Hugh Chisholm|title=The Encyclopaedia Britannicavolume=3|pages=370–378|publisher=Cambridge University Press|location=Cambridge|year=1910|edition=11|page=372}}</ref> The Particular Baptists arose in [[England]] in the 17th century and took their name from the doctrine of [[particular redemption]],<ref name="ChisholmHugh" />while the term "strict" refers to the practice of [[closed communion]]. |

Groups calling themselves "Strict Baptists" are often differentiated from those calling themselves "[[Reformed Baptists]]." The latter share the same Calvinist doctrine, but differ on [[ecclesiastical polity]].<ref name="Weaver">{{citation|last=Weaver|first=C Douglas|title=In Search of the New Testament Church|year=2008|publisher=Mercer University Press|location=Macon|isbn=0881461067|page=224|chapter=10.
