Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Wesleyan Methodism, in Grantham and Its Vicinity: With Preliminary Observations on the Rise, Progress and Utility, the Discipline and Doctrines of the Connexion, the Life of Its Founder, Etc It might be considered proper that some apology should be made for the step which he has taken in bringing forward his work to the public eye, as it probably would tend to soften down the asperity of criticism. To such apologies he is no friend, sensible even as he is of his own deficiencies, and of the can dour which this production of his pen will need from readers whose ability to judge of its merits is only of an ordinary er tent. If the reasons he asked why he undertook to send forth such a work, he will frankly acknowledge them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Notices of the Wesleyan Methodist Chapel, in Great Queen Street, Lincoln's Inn Fields, London: With a Brief Sketch of the Origin and Progress of the Society and Congregation The first part of the following sketch was prepared, at Midsummer, 1840, for the Trustees, who thought that the statements it contains might be useful in exciting the Congregation and Society to contribute liberally in raising 2000 towards the Repairs and Improvements which they were about to commence. The desired end having been accomplished, the Trustees now wish to preserve from oblivion the facts and dates which have been collected and verified, that they may be useful to others; they have added very minute details of their own recent proceedings. They do not forget that in a few years the duties which they now perform, must devolve on others; and if this record of the events which they and their fathers have seen and known, should produce in the minds of their successors as firm a conviction, as they themselves have, that the cause of Wesleyan Methodism is the cause of God, they believe, that, the necessary consequence must be, that they will gladly and zealously devote themselves to the duties committed to them.

Book The Rise and Progress of Wesleyan Methodism in Didsbury

Download or read book The Rise and Progress of Wesleyan Methodism in Didsbury written by James Fitton and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rise and Progress of Wesleyan Methodism in Didsbury: A Paper When I undertook to prepare the following Paper, I did not anticipate its appearance in permanent form, and it is only in response to the solicitations of many friends that it is now published. I trust, however, that a perusal of this Record - imperfect though it is - of the past successes of Methodism, may serve as an encouragement to the workers in this portion of the Lord's vineyard, and stimulate them to further labours on behalf of our cause; in which case its publication will not have been in vain. To my brother, who has furnished the illustrations which lend interest to the Paper, and to those who have supplied me out of Memory's storehouse with their recollections of bygone days, I tender my warmest thanks. If I have omitted to mention any persons whose names ought to have found a place in a Paper such as this, the omission has been unintentional, and I must ask those who knew them to rest satisfied with the assurance that their record is on high, and that their "work shall be manifest, for the day shall declare it."

Book The Makers of Wesleyan Methodism in Preston and the Relation of Methodism to the Temperance and Teetotal Movements

Download or read book The Makers of Wesleyan Methodism in Preston and the Relation of Methodism to the Temperance and Teetotal Movements written by W. Pilkington and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-02 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Makers of Wesleyan Methodism in Preston and the Relation of Methodism to the Temperance and Teetotal Movements: Adventure, Enterprise, and Noble Deeds of Preston Methodist Celebrities At a meeting of the committee appointed to prepare for celebrating the jubilee of Wesley Chapel, Preston, in November, 1888, the writer of this history was requested, among other arrangements, to prepare a paper on Preston Methodism from its introduction into the town to 1838, which he had the honour of reading. Subsequently he was desired to print it in an enlarged form, bringing up the history to the present time. In accordance with this wish, he consented to undertake the duty. With this apology for appearing in public as a recorder of the principal events in Methodist history in this neighbourhood, he asks for the kindest consideration from critics. The limits of this work will not allow of a description of the modern development of Methodist work in connection with the various junior Methodist bodies. But for the information of those readers who are not adherents of John Wesley, it will be as well to state here, that one doctrine is preached by all branches of the Methodist family. Their creed is practically the same, the points of difference being only as regards govern ment, i.e., the temporal management of the Church. In publishing this work he has had two objects before him. First, to make the history as complete as possible by including a notice of every cause in the Preston Wesleyan Methodist Cir cuits. Second, to keep within certain bounds, so as to be able to publish it at a price within the reach of all who are interested in the progress of Wesleyan Methodism and its relation to the Temperance and Teetotal Movements. The facts and circumstances have been culled from a variety of sources, -from books, magazines, newspapers, official records, and verbal reports.

Download or read book History of Wesleyan Methodism Vol 2 Classic Reprint written by George Smith and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Wesleyan Methodism, Vol. 2 Methodism during Wesley's Life - Necessity for Change in the System after his Death - Further Causes of Developement - These rendered more potent by the Character of the Societies - The Principle of Methodist Developement arose out of the Operation of a divine Purpose - No systematic Action taken to establish an improved Polity - The Result of this peculiar State of the Connexion. Our preceding researches have fully established the fact, that Methodism, throughout the lifetime of Wesley, mainly consisted in a series of efforts to evangelize the benighted nominal Christians of our country, and to lead them to the experience of inward godliness, and the practice of outward holiness. All that Wesley did in the way of organization, was not designed to work out any pre conceived plan, or to establish any particular system, but to save souls from the guilt and power of sin, and to train them up for heaven. This being the case, it cannot be any cause of wonder, that his death rendered very important changes necessary. As the working out of a system was not his ruling object.

Book Origin of Wesleyan Methodism in Sierra Leone and History of Its Missions

Download or read book Origin of Wesleyan Methodism in Sierra Leone and History of Its Missions written by Charles Marke and published by First Fruits Press. This book was released on 2018-11-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The digital copies of these recordings are available for free at First Fruits website. place.asburyseminary.edu/firstfruits Preface Knowing that it is a serious disadvantage to any people or country whose history is not written for the benefit of posterity, it has, for many years past, occurred to me that I ought to attempt something in this direction in connexion with Wesleyan Methodism, which has not only existed in this Colony of Sierra Leone for more than a century, but has conferred numerous untold benefits, intellectual, moral, and spiritual, on the people in general. Owing to the attendant strain of a Methodist Circuit life, and the great responsibility that rested on me as a Superintendent Minister since the early part of 1867, I could not possibly afford time to undertake the gigantic work of preparing a history of the rise and progress of Methodism and its Missions in Sierra Leone. A gracious Providence having, however, mercifully spared me to retire from the multifarious duties of circuit work at the close of the first quarter of the year 1910, after fifty-one years' active service, I feel that, as the oldest Wesleyan minister in the district, God has no doubt preserved me for the accomplishment of the important task; I must therefore at once proceed to put together certain facts from credible and available records, along with my reminiscences of sundry matters that are about half a century old, for the information alike of both young and old. With the belief that the obituaries of both the European Missionaries and African Ministers that died in the work here or elsewhere will be foundinteresting and appreciated, particularly in Methodistcircles in which they were not previously known; their insertion will be given in the pages within therespective decades in which the deaths occurred. For the map of Sierra Leone showing approximate Tribal Divisions the writer of this history is indebted to Mr. C. H. Lukach's book, A Bibliography of Sierra Leone.

Book The Making of the English Working Class

Download or read book The Making of the English Working Class written by E. P. Thompson and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2016-03-15 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A history of the common people and the Industrial Revolution: “A true masterpiece” and one of the Modern Library’s 100 Best Nonfiction Books of the twentieth century (Tribune). During the formative years of the Industrial Revolution, English workers and artisans claimed a place in society that would shape the following centuries. But the capitalist elite did not form the working class—the workers shaped their own creations, developing a shared identity in the process. Despite their lack of power and the indignity forced upon them by the upper classes, the working class emerged as England’s greatest cultural and political force. Crucial to contemporary trends in all aspects of society, at the turn of the nineteenth century, these workers united into the class that we recognize all across the Western world today. E. P. Thompson’s magnum opus, The Making of the English Working Class defined early twentieth-century English social and economic history, leading many to consider him Britain’s greatest postwar historian. Its publication in 1963 was highly controversial in academia, but the work has become a seminal text on the history of the working class. It remains incredibly relevant to the social and economic issues of current times, with the Guardian saying upon the book’s fiftieth anniversary that it “continues to delight and inspire new readers.”
