Christian Individualism
The Maverick Biblical Workmanship of Otis Q. Sellers
Summary
In Christian Individualism: The Maverick Biblical Workmanship of Otis Q. Sellers (Atmosphere Press, 2026), Anthony Flood traces Sellers's journey from Baptist pastor to independent Bible teacher, a man whose pursuit of the truth cost him his pulpit, his home, and his standing among the so-called "orthodox."
Consecrating his life to "rightly dividing the Word of Truth," Sellers followed Scripture beyond the boundaries of inherited doctrine. What he learned about baptism made it impossible for him to remain a Baptist. Over time, traditional teachings about the soul, "born again," "the Lord's Supper," eternal life, and hell also fell before his meticulous study.
In the depths of the Great Depression, Sellers left his pastorate and comfortable home, moving into his parents' attic with his young family to begin the work that would define the next six decades of his life. Virtually alone, he distinguished Christ's prophesied world government from His millennial presence on the Earth.
