Digest Of The Doctrinal Standards Of The Methodist Church Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from A Larger Catechism of the Doctrines, History, and Polity of the Methodist Protestant Church This little volume claims no originality of thought. It is an humble attempt to collect and arrange a brief and simple Outline Of the principal doctrines of the Methodist Protestant Church, as the author learned them from the fathers and the doctrinal standards recognized by the denomination; together with some Of the leading facts connected with the history Of Methodism and Of the Methodist Protestant Church; and a full and complete view of the polity or system of government adopted by the Church. When a person gets a clear outline of any subject, it greatly assists him in Obtaining a fuller and more comprehensive view of it in detail. Such an out line, except as it relates to the polity Of the Church, is all that is contemplated here. It is presumed that even this brief view will be valuable to members Of the Church who may not care to extend their investigations further, and that it will be useful in giving those who have no knowledge of our Church, a pretty correct idea of its doctrinal views, its origin and present condition, and its republican system of church government. The author can not but think that it will also be useful to young men entering the ministry in our Church, and convenient for even Older ones.
