Hempton explores the rise of Methodism from its unpromising origins as a religious society within the Church of England in the 1730s to a major international religious movement by the 1880s.
Excerpt from New England Methodism: The Story of the New England Convention of Methodist Men, Held in Tremont Temple Boston, Mass;, November 11-13, 1914 Even a quickening can have definition. Let Mr. Wesley speak for himself and for all of us. We have carried his definition of what he called his United Society in our book of Discipline for more than a hundred years, and we have no desire to change it now: A company of men having the form and seeking the power of godliness, united in order to pray together, and to watch over one another in love, that they may help each other to work out their salvation. There was but one condition of membership stipulated, A desire to ee from the wrath to come, and be saved from their sins. And to all his preachers he said, You have nothing to do but to save souls: therefore spend and be spent in this work. This is Methodism at its best, and at its business. When we are slothful in business we take excursions into the byways and hedges of the second probation, documentary hypoth esis, double Isaiahs, date of Daniel, and nebular speculations concerning unsolved problems of evolution and impracticable philosophies, or in taking such diversions as cannot be used in the name of the Lord Jesus. We have never found in these excursions what the prophet called burning fire shut up in the bones, and they have no tendency toward a harmony of fellow ship or indeed any bringing together of believers. They have rather cast fire into the sanctuary. Mr. Wesley's platform of fraternity and federation was If thy heart is as my heart, give me thy hand. When we have followed his example we have found friends in every Christian communion, and we have lengthened our own cords and strength ened our own stakes. It is good business besides being the Lord's will and prayer for Methodists to be peculiarly catholic and charitable toward other communions.
