John Newton Brown (June 29, 1803 – May 14, 1868)
was an influential Baptist teacher,
minister and publisher in the 19th century.
He was born in New London, Connecticut
as well as a teaching position at the Academical and Theological Institution
of New Hampton, New Hampshire,
before ill health forced him to travel south
where he took up a ministry in Lexington, Virginia, in 1845.
In 1848 he became editorial secretary
of the American Baptist Publication Society in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania,
and was editor of its publications the Christian Chronicle and National Baptist.
It was under his tenure that a number of influential works of the day
were published under his direction.
Brown was one of the authors of the New Hampshire Confession of Faith in 1833
which was a more moderate expression of the more Calvinistic beliefs
that existed at the time,
and was widely accepted in the northern United States.
