This book explores the contentious debate between Episcopal Methodism and Baptist polity, arguing that the former is not inherently anti-republican or anti-democratic. The author begins by examining the origins of both systems, tracing their development from their inception. He then compares the two systems in detail, arguing that many of the perceived differences are more apparent than real. He contends that the Methodist system is as democratic as the Baptist system, but that it has a more orderly structure that allows for greater efficiency. The author concludes by arguing that both systems have their strengths and weaknesses, but that the Methodist system is ultimately better suited to the needs of a large and growing denomination. It offers a fascinating and nuanced look at the history and theology of two of the most important denominations in American history.
