Sinopsis

Excerpt from Back to Oxford: A Search for the Essentials of Methodism

Methodism, like other important move ments, has certain elements, which either' originated with it or sprang into being under it, which constitute its essentials and are necessary to its perpetuity. These elements are its vital life-strands, its ruddy heart drops, the very essence and proof of its re ality. They have given it name, character, history, and prestige. They are the secret of its early power and the cause of its perennial fruitfulness. They render it an interesting theme for study, a worthy subject for prayer, and an inspiring cause for work. They should engage the attention of every lover of earnest Christianity, if happily we, like the Metho dist fathers, may in our day prove a tre mendous force for righteousness, a resistless power for reformation, and an indispensable agency for spiritual progress.

The world needs unquestionable truth, it needs divine light, it needs moral earnestness.
