Benjamin Breckinridge (B. B.) Warfield (1851-1921) was a noted Presbyterian theologian, writer, and educator. He was born in Kentucky and studied at Princeton College and the University of Leipzig. Ordained in 1879 he served briefly as a pastor in Baltimore before becoming professor of New Testament literature at Princeton Theological Seminary, a position he held for much of his life. His writings as editor of the Presbyterian and Reformed Review and in books like The Plan of Salvation presented a conservative view of Bible scholarship, Christian living, and theology that remains influential among Reformed believers.
