James Madison Pendleton was born on November 20, 1811 in Spotsylvania County, Virginia, United States. He was the son of John and Frances J. (Thompson) Pendleton. He could not trace his ancestry beyond his grandfather, Henry Pendleton, Jr. , of Culpeper County, who served in the Revolution. When James was about a year old, the family moved to Christian County, Kentucky, where, on a farm near Pembroke, he lived until he was twenty.
James Madison Pendleton attended the local schools, and from 1833 to 1836 an academy at Hopkinsville.
At seventeen, James Madison Pendleton had joined the church. He began to preach at nineteen, and was licensed by the Bethel Baptist Church in 1831. For the next two years Pendleton preached, taught school, and studied, and on November 2, 1833, he was ordained at Hopkinsville. After some local preaching during the continuation of his studies, he became in 1837 pastor of the Baptist Church at Bowling Green. His twenty-year pastorate at Bowling Green fell during a period when no one could exert an influence in the spiritual and moral life of the community without showing his political proclivities, and Pendleton's development was increasingly adverse to slaverv and concerned for the preservation of the Union. He thus supported the proposals of Henry Clay, including that for gradual emancipation of the slaves, a project which did not meet with general approval in Kentucky.
In 1857 Pendleton accepted the chair of theology in Union University at Murfreesboro, Tennessee. Here he studied and taught church history as well as Biblical and historical theology, and also served as pastor of the local Baptist Church. At the outbreak of the Civil War his attachment to the Union cause virtually forced him to leave Tennessee, and from 1862 to 1865 he served as pastor at Hamilton, Ohio. A son who had enlisted in the Confederate army was soon killed by accident; but the grief of the father was assuaged by the thought that his son "had never fired a gun at a Union soldier. "
In 1865 James Madison Pendleton accepted a call to the Baptist Church at Upland, Pennsylvania, where he became one of the original trustees of Crozer Theological Seminary, established three years later. He resigned the Upland pastorate in 1883 and spent the following years with one or another of his children, in Kentucky, Tennessee, and Texas.
From 1855 to 1861 James Madison Pendleton was one of the editors of the Southern Baptist Review Eclectic. His articles and reviews show a wide range of reading and acute logical powers, based upon certain presuppositions which he never questioned. His later revisions of his early works show little change from his fundamental position (strictly orthodox and essentially "Landmarker"), although in the later works some of his conclusions were not so obtrusively asserted. Among his published works are Three Reasons Why I am a Baptist (1853), revised as Distinctive Principles of Baptists (1882); Church Manual (copyright 1867); A Treatise on the Atonement of Christ (1869, revised in 1885); and Christian Doctrines (1878), the last two being revisions of articles first published in the Review and Eclectic. His autobiography, Reminiscences of a Long Life (1891), was published after his death.
James Madison Pendlenton died on March 4, 1891.
