Description
Book SynopsisDocuments and assesses Wesley's broad dependence on Puritan source material by considering selected areas of theological concern shared by Wesley and the Puritans in their application of the gospel to a believer's daily life.
Trade ReviewThis is a new edition of a book first published in 1966 and widely considered as definitive. The author has kept abreast of subsequent studies in Methodist and Puritan theology and has incorporated the results in his revision. The result is an invaluable guide to one aspect of John Wesley's theology and ministry, which is likely to stand the test of time as successfully as its predecessor. Its value lies as much in its very substantial documentation as in the text itself. In this revised edition it is certainly a volume no serious theological library can afford to be without and no student of Wesley can ignore. * Epworth Review *
This is an excellent contribution to Wesley studies, and should help students appreciate more fully the riches of the Puritan tradition...surely a seminal work of scholarship. * Proceedings Of The Wesley Historical Society *
