Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of the Rev. Robert R. Roberts: One of the Bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church The following narrative is a work of no great pretensions, as far as the authorship is concerned. The reasons are the following. Whatever talent the author possesses, as a writer, it does not properly comprise the qualifications necessary for a good biographer. Besides, while preparing this volume, he had the regular duties of editor to perform, which necessarily interfered with the close attention requisite for such an undertaking. It is, also, rather hastily got up, and must, therefore, partake of the defects of all hasty publications - to which class most of the works written in this age properly belong. The author ought to have had sufficient time to re-compose the whole; but this was impossible under existing circumstances; and, therefore, his half-prepared book must be issued just as it is. The principal reason why this unpretending volume is thus given to the public is, that the writer could not promise himself any leisure in future, even should his days be lengthened, to do more justice to the life of his venerable friend. It is, moreover, probable, that if he had not undertaken what is now imperfectly done, no other person, for want of inclination or time, would have attempted it at all. The Methodist Episcopal Church seems to have been very unfortunate in reference to her two senior Bishops, Asbury and M'Kendree, in not having the lives of these venerable men written for the benefit of posterity. This consideration has had great influence in inducing the writer to undertake the present work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Religion and Violence in Early American Methodism written by Jeffrey Williams and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2010-04-22 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early American Methodists commonly described their religious lives as great wars with sin and claimed they wrestled with God and Satan who assaulted them in terrible ways. Carefully examining a range of sources, including sermons, letters, autobiographies, journals, and hymns, Jeffrey Williams explores this violent aspect of American religious life and thought. Williams exposes Methodism's insistence that warfare was an inevitable part of Christian life and necessary for any person who sought God's redemption. He reveals a complex relationship between religion and violence, showing how violent expression helped to provide context and meaning to Methodist thought and practice, even as Methodist religious life was shaped by both peaceful and violent social action.
Download or read book American Saint written by John Wigger and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009-10-01 with total page 559 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English-born Francis Asbury was one of the most important religious leaders in American history. Asbury single-handedly guided the creation of the American Methodist church, which became the largest Protestant denomination in nineteenth-century America, and laid the foundation of the Holiness and Pentecostal movements that flourish today. John Wigger has written the definitive biography of Asbury and, by extension, a revealing interpretation of the early years of the Methodist movement in America. Asbury emerges here as not merely an influential religious leader, but a fascinating character, who lived an extraordinary life. His cultural sensitivity was matched only by his ability to organize. His life of prayer and voluntary poverty were legendary, as was his generosity to the poor. He had a remarkable ability to connect with ordinary people, and he met with thousands of them as he crisscrossed the nation, riding more than one hundred and thirty thousand miles between his arrival in America in 1771 and his death in 1816. Indeed Wigger notes that Asbury was more recognized face-to-face than any other American of his day, including Thomas Jefferson and George Washington.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Substance of a Sermon: Preached on the Occasion of the Death of Rev. Robert R. Roberts Shortly after the death of the lamented Bishop Roberts, a meeting of the the Madison district, Indiana conference, was called, to take some I bereavement of the Church. At the meeting sundry resolutions and, among others, one requesting the presiding elder of the district to preach the funeral sermon of Bishop Roberts within the bounds of each charge in the district. The following is the substance of a sermon preached in the city of Madison, the 6th of June, 1843, in pursuance of the above request; and in other charges in the district, with a few variations. Although the author regrets that the sermon i not more worthy of the great in whose death has called it forth; yet he is induced, by the request of the quarterly meeting conferences of the district, and by a desire to contribute the memory of our much loved Bishop, to submit it for publication, hoping that God may condescend to bless, even this humble effort, to the edification and comfort, in some small degree, of a bereaved Church.

Download or read book The Supernatural and the Circuit Riders written by Rimi Xhemajli and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Supernatural and the Circuit Riders, Rimi Xhemajli shows how a small but passionate movement grew and shook the religious world through astonishing signs and wonders. Beginning in the late eighteenth century, early American Methodist preachers, known as circuit riders, were appointed to evangelize the American frontier by presenting an experiential gospel: one that featured extraordinary phenomena that originated from God's Spirit. In employing this evangelistic strategy of the gospel message fueled by supernatural displays, Methodism rapidly expanded. Despite beginning with only ten official circuit riders in the early 1770s, by the early 1830s, circuit riders had multiplied and caused Methodism to become the largest American denomination of its day. In investigating the significance of the supernatural in the circuit rider ministry, Xhemajli provides a new historical perspective through his eye-opening demonstration of the correlation between the supernatural and the explosive membership growth of early American Methodism, which fueled the Second Great Awakening. In doing so, he also prompts the consideration of the relevance and reproduction of such acts in the American church today.
