Methodism In The Light Of The Early Church: Being The Fifteenth Fernley Lecture (1885) - Hardcover

by William F. Slater (Author)

""Methodism In The Light Of The Early Church"" is a book written by William F. Slater, first published in 1885. The book is based on the fifteenth Fernley Lecture, which the author delivered in 1884. The central theme of the book is the comparison of the beliefs and practices of Methodism with those of the early Christian Church. Slater examines the origins of Methodism, its doctrines, and its practices, and compares them to the teachings of the early Church Fathers. The author argues that Methodism is a continuation of the early Church's teachings, and that its doctrines and practices are in line with the teachings of the early Church. Slater provides a detailed analysis of the similarities and differences between the two, and offers insights into the development of Methodism as a distinct Christian denomination. The book is an important resource for scholars of Methodism and early Christianity, as well as for anyone interested in the history of Christian theology and practice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
