Excerpt from The Works of the Reverend John Fletcher, Vol. 4 of 4: Late Vicar of Madeley Some persons think all mysticism contrary to reason; and a work is deemed mystical if it contain truths a little more profound, or thoughts more sublime than what they are already acquainted with. A few remarks on this dangerous prejudice may not be unworthy of the serious reader's attention. The rational mysticism, found in many excellent works, both ancient and modern, is a thin veil covering the naked truth, to improve her beauty, to quicken the attention of sincere seekers, to augment the plea-sure of discovery, and to conceal her charms from the prying eyes of her enemies. Poems, in general, and the sacred oracles in particular, abound with this mysticism, which consists in figures, allusions, comparisons, metaphors, types, allegories, apologues, and parables. David, for instance, simply tells us, God is attentive to the prayers of sincere seekers. Homer presents the same truth veiled in a prosopop ia, when he says, "Prayers are the daughters of Jupiter and consequently of celestial origin, and their influence Divine. To this mysticism, which personifies virtues, vices, and the passions; dignifies animals with reason, and imparts life and speech to inanimate beings, our poets are "indebted for the most sublime beauties of their works: had this imagery been wholly banished from my performance, I could not, with any propriety, have given it the name of a poem. When a wise mysticism veils disagreeable truths, it may be compared to leaves of gold which bitter pills are sometimes covered with. Thus the Prophet Nathan, by concealing a terrible rebuke under a well-chosen apologue, brought King David to pass a just sentence upon the seducer of Uriah's wife. Thus Fenelon, under the character of Mentor; and Racine, under the personages acting in his Esther, and Athalia, presumed to give lessons of wisdom and moderation to Lewis XIV., which would not have been received but through the prudent mysticism of the authors. In imitation of these I have sometimes introduced the apostles giving advice to Christians, at other times the feathered tribes offering instruction to the human race, but not like Fontaine, who says, - De la simple nature encontez les lecons, &c. To simple nature's sacred lore attend, Your ears to scaly tribes submissive bend, Creation always speaks the numbers penn'd; Foresight and diligence in them are join'd, By animals I lecture all mankind.

John William Fletcher (1729-1785) was a seminal theologian during the early methodist movement and the Church of England in the eighteenth century. Best known for the Checks to Antinomianism, he worked out a theology of history to defend the church against the encroachment of antinomianism as a polemic against hyper-Calvinism, whose system of divine fiat and finished salvation, Fletcher believed, did not take seriously enough either the activity of God in salvation history or an individual believer's personal progress in salvation. Fletcher made the doctrine of accommodation a unifying principle of his theological system and further developed the doctrine of divine accommodation into a theology of ministry. As God accommodated divine revelation to the frailties of human beings, ministers of the gospel must accommodate the gospel to their hearers in order to gain a hearing for the gospel without losing the goal of true Christianity. This book contains insights for pastors, missionaries, and Christian thinkers on true Christianity from Fletcher, who devoted himself, according to Wesley, to being "an altogether Christian."

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.
