Author Information

William Huntington S.S. (2 February 1745 - 1 July 1813) was an English preacher and coal heaver. It is said that he was known for preaching that the 'moral law' was unnecessary, a theological view known as Antinomianism. Huntington was a strict Calvinist who believed that some were predestined to be saved and some were not. He believed that on Judgment Day he would be identified as a true prophet. His unusual, polemical preaching style and writings made him popular but brought him into conflict with other preachers throughout his life. He founded or opened chapels throughout England, many of which still survive. William Huntington was born in 1745 near Cranbrook in Kent, and was given the name William Hunt at his baptism there years later. It is said that his father was Barnabus Russel-his mother's husband's employer-despite his mother's marriage to William Hunt. He was the tenth child of Elizabeth Hunt and the only male to achieve maturity. He changed his surname to Huntington in 1769; his rationale was that the ing represented the present participle in words representing sinful activities, such as stealing and swearing ; and ton referred to his being a vessel of the Lord . Later that year, he married Mary Short, a servant; they moved to Mortlake in Surrey and Huntington resumed his gardening work. Nevertheless, he was still very poor.
