This volume brings together the theological interpretation of the sacraments of baptism and Holy Communion as expressed in the writings and hymns of John and Charles Wesley. •Section 1 addresses the Anglican-Methodist sacrament of baptism as interpreted by John Wesley with excerpts from his Treatise on Baptism. •Section 2 contains commentaries on six of Charles Wesley’s hymns on baptism. The commentaries seek to elucidate not only the theological emphases of the texts but also their meaning for the church today. •Section 3 moves to the sacrament of Holy Communion and includes excerpts from John Wesley’s sermon “On the Duty of Constant Communion.” Charles Wesley expresses similar views in his treatise on Holy Communion, “And upon the first Day of the Week,” and in his twenty-two stanza poem “Happy the Saints of Former Days.” •Section 4 includes the commentaries on sixteen Wesley hymns for Holy Communion. •Section 5 includes new musical settings for all of the twenty-two Wesley hymns on baptism and Holy Communion included here by twenty contemporary composers from North and South America, Asia, and Europe. In a variety of musical styles they seek to capture the various theological emphases and nuances of the texts.

This volume celebrates the Wesleyan scholarship of Victor Shepherd, the first professor to occupy the Chair of Wesley Studies at Tyndale University College & Seminary in Toronto, Canada. The essays collected here explore not only the life and theology of John and Charles Wesley, but also many themes relating to the contemporary Wesleyan tradition, especially within the Canadian context Attention is given to the intellectual, social and religious context of John Wesley's theology, as well as to the ecumenical significance of a theologian who is seen to relate readily to many different families within the universal church. A pastor for four decades, Shepherd's thought always reflects Wesley's insistence on "practical divinity" or theology not oriented to speculation but rather to the concrete concerns of the people of God in their engagement with the treachery of their own hearts and the turbulence in the wider world. Victor A. Shepherd is Professor of Theology and Professor of Philosophy at Tyndale University College & Seminary, Toronto, and Professor "Ordinarius" for the Graduate Theological Foundation, University of Oxford. He is also an adjunct professor at the Toronto School of Theology, University of Toronto, where he supervises doctoral students in Reformation studies, Puritan thought, the theology of the eighteenth-century Awakening, and contemporary theology. He is currently a member of the Evangelical-Roman Catholic Dialogue (an undertaking of the Evangelical Fellowship of Canada and the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops). His other books include "Interpreting Martin Luther: An Introduction to His Life and Thought " (Regent College Publishing) and " The Nature and Function of Faith in the Theology of John Calvin " (Mercer University Press).

A major figure in eighteenth-century Christianity, John Wesley sought to combine the essential elements of the Catholic and Evangelical traditions and to restore to the laity a vital role in church life. He began one of the most dynamic movements in the history of modern Protestantism, a movement which eventually produced the Methodist churches. This volume offers a representative selection of theological writings by Wesley and includes historically oriented introductions and footnotes which indicate Wesley's Anglican, patristic, and biblical sources.

Wesley's TractsThis volume gathers together eight representative tracts from Wesley's pen and press.(1) The Principles of a Methodist-1742 The doctrinal controversy with the Calvinists over predestination unleashed by Wesley's 1739 Bristol sermon "Free Grace" brought him under fire. Clergy and laity took aim at Wesley in the pulpits and in the press. Not until 1742, however, did Wesley take the threats seriously. In Principles of a Methodist Wesley tried to clarify his teaching on salvation and Christian perfection.(2) Character of a Methodist-1742 In the early 1730s Wesley read and admired the sketch of a "Perfect Christian" drawn by Clement of Alexandria about A.D. 200. Ten years later Wesley decided to draw such a character himself, only this time using the words of scripture. He had a dual purpose in mind: not simply to expound Christian perfection under an alias, but also to define and defend Methodism as simply good old-fashioned scriptural Christianity.(3) Predestination Calmly Considered-1752At mid-career (1752) Wesley penned and published a summary of his rejection of the predestinarian position. It gathers up the threads of his earlier polemics and establishes the main lines along which the controversy would proceed spasmodically until his death.Both Calvinist and Arminian parties professed a common belief in the doctrines of the sovereignty of God and justification by faith alone. However, they disagreed on the proper role persons could play in the whole affair of salvation. Calvinists saw God's sovereignty threatened by Arminian talk of "free will" and any notion of cooperating response, even if empowered by God's grace. Wesley saw God's character defamed by reprobation and insisted that the gospel balanced God's sovereign grace with human moral responsibility. Pretending to be dialogue, Predestination Calmly Considered reflects these two rigid positions in not so calm collision. (4) Plain Account of Genuine Christianity-1753John Wesley was fond of writing little sketches of the perfect Christian, although he never claimed this character for himself nor ascribed it to other living persons. His Plain Account of Genuine Christianity is designed to offer both a model of holy living to converts and an apology for Methodism's mission to outsiders. Who could quarrel with a religious movement that aimed to make people holy?(5) The Desideratum: or, Electricity Made Plain and Useful-1760John Wesley kept abreast of the literature on electricity, reading the reports of such scientists as Benjamin Franklin and Joseph Priestley. Though his claims for therapeutic use of electricity were exaggerated, Wesley's practice illustrates his commitment to scientific medicine that would be in harmony with knowledge of the natural world.(6) In 1762 John Wesley reissued Part I of The Doctrine of Original Sin, according to Scripture, Reason and Experience as a seventy-five page essay and published it separately with a new title: The Dignity of Human Nature. In both treatise and essay Wesley takes the Protestant hard line, asserting the utter impotence of one's natural moral powers.(7) Short History of Methodism-1765In this1765 sketch Wesley gives only a brief account of Methodist origins. The remainder of the small pamphlet document successive theological squabbles and schisms within the movement.(8) Thoughts Upon Slaverly-1774In matters of human rights, slavery bothered Wesley the most. Methodism began with a vigorous antislavery heritage thanks to him. He read about slavery at Oxford, experienced the horrors of slavery firsthand in South Carolina in the 1730s. Forty years later he was moved to write a fifty-one-page tract entitled Thoughts upon Slavery. In it he repudiated those who argued the necessity of continuing slavery.
