Download or read book The Birth of Methodism in America written by J. S. Reynolds and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Birth of Methodism in America: With Photographs T is nearly a century and a half since the birth of Methodism in 1 America. From that angel-guarded cradle has grown a family numbering about one fifth of the population of the United States. This wonderful growth from so humble a birth has attracted the attention of the world. It has wielded a tremendous power in spreading the gospel of jesus Christ throughout the land which has had so much to do in shaping our present civilization. The purpose Of this little volume is not to give the history of Methodism in the United States, but to give all the history that is obtainable Of the Father Of Methodism in America. This is best accomplished by publishing the oration and addresses of the emi nent Methodists who participated in the ceremonies on the occa sion Of the removal Of the remains of the Father Of Methodism in America, and at the unveiling of the beautiful monument at Cam bridge, New York, erected by the National Local Preachers' Asso ciation of the' Methodist Episcopal Church to his memory. The aim Of the publisher is to perpetuate the name of the Father Of Methodism in America, and his contemporaries - names quite unknown, perhaps, to many of the present generation, but names honored and revered by all Methodists familiar with the early history of the Methodist Church in America. The beautiful half-tone photographs in this little volume are priceless. The plates from which they are taken are the only ones in existence and cannot be duplicated, thus making this little book a historical souvenir of great value.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Renaissance of Methodism The rise of Methodism was the revival of primitive Christianity. The Wesleys and their co-workers were apostolic in life and labors. In the United Kingdom, Christian ity had become a mere dogma or a divine scheme of philosophy - nothing more. In sermon and in song the Wesleys taught that Christianity was a divine power, and that nothing short of a new birth by the Holy Spirit of God would entitle a man to be called a Christian. This was the secret of the marvelous growth of Methodism in Great Britain and, later, in our own land. The conversion of the soul by faith in Christ, followed by the witness of the Spirit to adoption, was the great theme of these heaven-sent heralds of the Cross, Whose school of theology had been the Holy Club. Thus it was that, from the beginning, Meth odism was like the early Christian Church - a revival Church. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Methodism: For Our Young People The writer of this little volume has but a few words to say in presenting it to the public. It has been prepared under the conviction that such a book is needed for use in our Sunday Schools, and for general circulation among our people. Most of the histories of Methodism are elaborate works of several volumes, which a great many Methodists have neither the money to buy nor the time to read. And yet no person who honors the memory of John Wesley, and blesses God for raising him up to do a great work, should consent to live with out some knowledge of his wonderful life and labors, and of the results which have followed in every part of the world.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Back to Oxford: A Search for the Essentials of Methodism Methodism, like other important move ments, has certain elements, which either' originated with it or sprang into being under it, which constitute its essentials and are necessary to its perpetuity. These elements are its vital life-strands, its ruddy heart drops, the very essence and proof of its re ality. They have given it name, character, history, and prestige. They are the secret of its early power and the cause of its perennial fruitfulness. They render it an interesting theme for study, a worthy subject for prayer, and an inspiring cause for work. They should engage the attention of every lover of earnest Christianity, if happily we, like the Metho dist fathers, may in our day prove a tre mendous force for righteousness, a resistless power for reformation, and an indispensable agency for spiritual progress. The world needs unquestionable truth, it needs divine light, it needs moral earnestness. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Methodism in 1791 and 1891 These questions are not to be answered lightly, and, least of all boastfully. But, so far as matter for the answer lies ready to our hand, let as not fail to use it. Thus we thankfully afiiim that Methodism today, in all its branches, shows results that cannot be of man. Looking on its vast growth, only an enmity blinded by bigoted prejudice could hesitate to say: This is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes. And let us hasten to acknowledge, in most profound humility, that in nothing is it more marvellous than this, that it has been accomplished by agency for the most part so feeble, and often so unfaithful. But we should be sinfully ungrateful indeed did we not with great thankfulness magnify the grace of the Lord, the Head of the Church, in that Methodism has been kept loyal to His truth, and is loyal today to the form of doctrine which it was called into existence to teach and to defend. That unbroken continuity of doctrine is, I fear not to declare, one of the most notable phenomena in the history of modern Christianity. From our pulpits, in uninterrupted series of witness, there has sounded out, unfaltering, the word of a free, and full, and present salvation; a salvation by faith only in the atoning death of the Lord Jesus Christ; a divinely attested salvation; a salvation unto all righteousness and true holiness.

Download or read book American Methodism Classic Reprint written by Moses Lewis Scudder and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-16 with total page 618 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Methodism The measures adopted by the Methodist Church were also peculiarly well calculated to promote individual godliness, and secure a diffusion of its principles. In order to secure oversight and pastoral care in the absence of the preacher, the church was divided into small classes, and placed under the care of leaders of Christian experience and prudence, whose duty was to meet their classes weekly for their instruction, to encourage them to seek high attainments in a Christian life, and to report to the minister such as might walk disorderly. There were also bands, or small associations of Christians, pledged to promote each other's spiritual welfare. The public meetings of the societies, the quarterly meet ings, the protracted meetings, and the camp-meetings, bringing a great number together, were well calculated, by the earnestness and the variety of their exercises, to awaken and continue reli gions interest, and give opportunity, not only for personal improve ment, but for the acquisition of the power to communicate truth. The exercises of these meetings, and the responsibilities of the various subordinate offices of the church, gave an excellent practi cal training for the ministry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

This book was released on 2016-09-14 with total page 636 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lost Chapters Recovered From the Early History of American Methodism The old book sheds light upon that part of our history where all before was dark as a starless midnight. It is the first record of the trustees and stewards of the old J ohn-street Church. It is a model book, both on account of its neatness and exactness. They were very particular in those days to re cord everything, small and great. What a reproof to the care less manner in which many church records are now kept. The old book is the basis of the work entitled, Lost Chapters Recovered. We do not publish all that it con tains, but make extracts from year to year, from the first to the conclusion. This work is something more than a mere local history. It describes the early and great men of Methodism, in whom the great Methodist family have a common interest. To make the chapters as complete as possible, I have not only followed the old book, but availed myself of other material that enriches the volume. Does the reader inquire where this old book has been? I answer, I cannot tell, only it has been lost for over half a century, and very recently discovered. The oldest ministers now in new-york and the oldest trustees had never seen the book. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
