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.

There have been numerous collections of quotations from the writings of John and Charles Wesley since their deaths, but this small collection is unique in several respects: arrangement is by topic; each quotation is accompanied by complete reference to its source and, in addition to quotations from their own writings, a few are from their parents and their older brother Samuel. John Wesley is often eminently quotable...a good selection.--PROCEEDINGS OF THE WESLEY HISTORICAL SOCIETY [UK]

In the 1700s, John Wesley's anointed preaching set hearts afire and ignited a revival in the church.

John Wesley bequeathed his manuscripts to three trusted colleagues with the expectation that they would prepare, write, and publish a suitable biography after his death. An ex-Methodist preacher, John Hampson, beat them into print with an unflattering portrait of Methodism's founder. The book was published in June of 1791, only three months after Wesley was buried.To counter this publication, Thomas Coke and Henry Moore rushed into print an "authorized" and more flattering account. Their Life of John Wesley was first published in April 1792, and the authors had high hopes for their 542-page book. By showing "how faithfully, zealously, and prudently Wesley labored" may thereby be more abundantly stimulated to be followers of him, as he was of Christ."A year later the first and only known American edition was published in Philadelphia by John Dickins who only three years earlier had begun the publishing house for the Methodist Episcopal Church. Twenty-three know editions/printings kept the book available in England until 1864. We are pleased to reprint the first American printing by Philadelphia printer Parry Hall for John Dickins in 1793.

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.
