Item description from seller

iv, 218 p.; 19.5 cm. (Methodist union catalog H4681; Jarboe 837) [Orig. title: John Wesley and modern Wesleyanism, 1873] Type-facsimile, on p. [199]-209: Reasons against a separation from the Church of England / by John Wesley, A.M. Printed in the year 1758. London, printed by W. Strahan, MDCCLX. -- Green-Baker 201 (omitting appended hymns by Charles Wesley), extracted from Preservative against unsettled notions in religion,1758. -- From Preface: `The pamphlet from which this volume has grown was originally written to repel a charge of Popery brought by certain Methodist Preachers against Churchmen in respect of the following particu- lars:--I. The Apostolical Succession. II.The Real Presence(otherwise termed by the accusers`The Presence of Christ in the Sacrament'). III. Absolution. IV. Prayers forthe Faithful Departed. V.Baptismal Regeneration. VI. Private or Auricular Confession. VII. What now goes by the name of Ritualism--e.g. Choral Celebration of the Eucharist, the Mixed Chalice, Bowing at the Name of Jesus,etc. The following pages show that John Wesley distinctly held and explicitly taught each and all of them. But I have thought it well in the subsequent editions to go beyond my first object,and cite Wesley's opinions on other subjects of importance--opinions totally at variance with those of his so-called followers.And I do this partly out of sincere respect for the man, and to strive to rescue his character from the cloud that would needs rest upon it if we only knew him through those who now call themselves by his name; and partly also to show that.as Alexander Knox expresses it, his `uncommon acuteness in fitting expedients to conjectures,' the root of his power lay in the firm grasp that he held-in the main-of Catholic doctrine.'
