Southend Evangelical Church
Religious Organization in Southend-on-Sea, Essex
The founder of the Peculiar People, James Banyard, was a ploughman's son born on the 31st January 1800 in the tiny market town of Rochford, in Southeast Essex. This part of Essex was given over to agriculture, and was, with other parts of the eastern counties, the corn garner of England. Its politics were conservative, its religion earnestly non-conformist, a bastion of the Puritan cause from Elizabethan times. The Peculiar People were to prove that, even in the 19th century, Puritanism and religious controversy were not dead there. He married one Susan Garnish but his habits continued and he was the despair of his wife.

read moreWe believe in God. We believe in the absolute uniqueness of God as He declares in Isaiah 45:5 ‘I Am the Lord, and there is no other; apart from me there is no God.' We believe in the unity of the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ) and the Holy Spirit in the Godhead of the Trinity. We believe in Judgement. We believe that all men are sinful from birth, as Scripture declares ‘Surely I have been a sinner from birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me.' (Psalm 51:5) Therefore all men are answerable to God for their sin ‘There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.' (Romans 3:23) The human race is enslaved by sin and helpless to save itself, as Jesus told us in John 8:34: ‘I tell you the truth, everyone who sins is a slave to sin.'
