Excerpt from The Absurdities of Methodism Besides, in my Opinion, 1 have seen much evil done by the Methodist doctrine. Very many, who at one time have bid fair to be brought to a' saving knowledge of the truth, as it is in Christ, have been led astray b this doc trine, and have walked awhile with t e Metho dist until their serious impressions were worn off, and then they turned again to their folly, more wicked and secure than ever. Likewise, my personal acquaintance with some of the or der, leads me to fear for many of those that te main in their communion. I trust and believe that there are some among them, who are real Christians. But, on the other hand, I' am great ly led to fear, . That when we shall all be weigh edin the balance of the sanctuary, many of them will be found wanting. This lfear, not only from some of their views concerning the nature of true godliness, but also from the word of God which every where connects a belief of the truth with regeneration. Jesus says, ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Essentials of Methodism If we look at Methodism historically, we soon discern that all its doctrines and cere monials and rules for practice have to do with their effect on inner Spiritual experience. The Methodist movement arose as a protest against formalism in theology and ritual and practice. The early Methodists made no war on the Church Of England except in the attack upon its lack of spirituality. It has been said that Methodism began when John Wesley found his heart strangely warmed, and that the center of the power of Methodism has always been its emphasis upon inner experience. It is as if our forefathers found ready-to - hand doc trinal' statements and ritualistic Observances and rules Of conduct which they proceeded to fill with a new life.

Excerpt from Methodism and It's Methods The present volume has grown out of the observations, studies, and reflections of an itinerant ministry of thirty - one years. Consequently, whatever defects may be discovered, either in the reasoning or the writing, haste cannot be pleaded in extenuation of them. He that has no love for the Church of Christ, in all its branches, will find little here that he will care to read. They who have not so pondered over its past history as to feel at least some degree of solicitude in regard to the future, their hearts, at times, like Eli's, trembling for the ark of God, will be liable to misconstrue both the aim and the spirit of these pages.

Excerpt from Methodism Explained and Defended That particular form of Christianity, denominated Methodism, has passed through one century of its existence; and though volumes upon volumes have been written in its exposition and defense, yet the ever varying phases of attack from foes Without and foes Within, like the protean forms of infidelity itself, must again be met, and the objections Which have been te iterated against the doctrines and polity of the church, though answered a thousand times, must again and again be vanquished.

Excerpt from Methodism Successful, and the Internal Causes of Its Success Such statements, emanating in the one case from the best intellect, and in the other from the highest position among the people of this country, and in both cases from citizens of ripe age and extensive experience and observation, are enough to demonstrate the fact, that Methodism has at last become a power of no secondary importance on this continent; and yet it is a question among Methodists themselves, who ought to know their own affairs, whether their denomination is not still higher, stronger, more in uential and powerful in Europe than in the United States. One thing is certainly clear, that Methodism, which began in obscurity and feebleness, has achieved for itself everywhere a most wonderful success. This point is generally conceded; but there are few persons, nevertheless, on either side of the Atlantic, outside of the pale of Methodism, who have taken the pains to learn the exact character and extent of this success; and there are fewer persons still, I think, either outside or within the denomination, who have so examined or studied its origin and progress, as to be able to state, with philosophical correctness, the organic causes to which its remarkable prosperity and growth are to be attributed.
