 PROMINENT DOCTRINES AND 
 PECULIAR USAGES 
 
 OF 
 
 THE METHODIST CHURCH. 
 
 hAETHOinsM dates its existence from 
 ^ the formation of the Societies found- 
 ed by the Rev. John Wesley in the year 
 
 1739. 
 
 The Methodist Church was organized in 
 September, 1883, in accordance with a 
 " Basis of Union " accepted by the Con- 
 ferences of the various Methodist Churches 
 of the Dominion and Newfoundland. It 
 defines itself, and its purpose, in the lan- 
 guage descriptive of the first Methodist 
 Societies, as " a company of men having 
 the form, and seeking the power of godli- 
 ness, united in order to pray together, to 
 
2 Prominent Doctrines and Peculiar 
 
 receive the word of exhortation, to watch 
 over one another in love, that they may 
 help each other to work out their salva- 
 tion." 
 
 The condition of membership in the 
 Methodist Church is, " A desire to flee 
 from~ the wrath to come, and to be saved 
 from sin." 
 
 The prominent doctrines of the Method- 
 ist Church are — 
 
 II-. 
 
 I. UNIVERSAL REDEMPTION. 
 
 Methodism proclaims a universal re- 
 demption — that Jesus Christ died for all 
 mankind, and freely offers to save all men 
 on the condition of penitence for sin, and 
 faith in the atonement. 
 
 1. God gave his Son Jesus Christ to die, 
 that ivhosoeverh^X\Q.\^\}ciox\ him should not 
 perish, but have everlasting life. John iii. 
 6 ; vi. 40-47 ; i John iv. 9, 10, 14. 
 
 2. By his death Jesus Christ made an 
 
 •5*' 
 
Usages of the Methodist Church. 
 
 atonement for all mankind. Heb. ii. 9 ; 
 2 Cor. V. 15 ; I Tim. ii. 5, 6. 
 
 3. Christ died for sinners, without respect 
 of persons or conditions in life ; and all 
 men are sinners. John i. 29 ; Rom. v. 6, 7, 
 8 ; viii. 32 ; i John ii. 2. 
 
 4. The invitations of the Gospel are 
 made to all. Isa. xiv. 22 ; Matt. xi. 28 ; 
 Rev. 22. 17 ; John vii. 37 ; Rom. x. 13. 
 
 5. The grace and the Spirit of God en- 
 lighten and lead all men so that they may- 
 believe unto salvation. Titus ii. 11, 12; 
 John xvi. 8. 
 
 6. God hath no pleasure in the death of 
 tfe wicked, Ezek. xviii. 31, 32 ; xxxiii. 1 1 ; 
 2 pet. iii. 8. 
 
 I II. REPENTANCE. 
 
 I. Repentance literally denotes a change 
 of mind, or purpose, reconsideration. In the 
 Scriptures it implies such a reconsideration 
 and change of mind as results from a know- 
 
4 Prominent Doctrines and Peculiar 
 
 ledge of sin, and a sorrow tor it because of 
 its malignant nature, and its opposition to 
 God. This state of mind, under the leading 
 of the Holy Spirit, induces an effective 
 repentance, called in the Scripture, "re- 
 pentance unto life," " and repentance unto 
 salvation." Acts xi. i8 ; 2 Cor. vii. 10. 
 
 2. Repentance is wrought in man by the 
 influence of the Holy Spirit, and by the 
 teachings*of the grace of God. John xvi. 
 7, 8 ; Titus ii. 11. 12 ; Rom. ii. 4 ; v. 15. 
 
 3. As preparatory to pardon, and the 
 renewal of the soul, repentance is a first 
 duty. Matt. iii. 2; Acts iii. 19; viii. 22; 
 xvii. 30. ("- 
 
 4. True repentance is indicated and 
 companied by certain evidences. 
 
 ( 1 ) By personal consciousness. The mimd 
 takes knowledge of its own states and 
 operations. 
 
 (2) By fruits meet for repentance, or 
 answerable to amendment of life. 
 
Usages of the Methodist Church. 
 
 5 
 
 (a) Contrition. Ps. li. 17 ; Matt. v. 3; 2 
 Cor. viii. 10. 
 
 (b) Confession. Prov. xxviii. 13; Luke 
 xviii. 13 ; I John i. 9. 
 
 (c) Amendment. Ps. cxix. 59 ; Isa. i- 
 16, 17 ; Iv. 6, 7 ; Matt. xii. 8. 
 
 III. JUSTIFICATION BY FAITH. 
 
 I. Justification is that act of God's free 
 grace in which he pardons our sins and 
 accepts us as righteous in his sight for the 
 sake of Jesus Christ who made an atone- 
 ment for sin. Rom. viii. 33 ; iii. 24, 25 ; 
 Eph. i. 7 ; Acts xiii. 38, 39 ; Rom. iv. 4-8. 
 
 2*. The leading condition of justification 
 
 or pardon, is faith in Jesus Christ, whose 
 
 person and work are one as' a revelation 
 
 of God, and of all saving truth. Rom. v. i ; 
 
 Gal. ii. 16; Acts xvi. 31; xiii. 38, 39; 
 
 John iii. 16. 
 
 (a) Faith is the act of receiving and 
 
 trusting in Christ for salvation. Eph. i. 
 
 13 ; Rom. iv. 5 ; ix. 9, 10. 
 
 \<^m:yf\ 
 

 
 prominent Doctrines and Peculiar 
 
 ib) It is the act of the whole man 
 under the influence of the Holy Spirit. 
 I Cor. xii. 3 ; John i. 1 1 ; Col. ii. 12. 
 
 ic) It is an "assent to the whole gospel 
 of Christ ; a full reliance in the blood of 
 Christ ; a trust in the merits of his life, 
 death and resurrection ; a recumbency 
 upon him as our atonement and our life, 
 as given for us and living in us ; a closing 
 with him, and a clinging to him as our 
 '' Wisdom, Righteousness, Sanctification, 
 and Redemption, — in one word, our Salva- 
 tion." — Wesley. 
 
 IV. REGENERATION. 
 
 1. Regeneration is the work wrought in 
 the believing soul by the Holy Spirit, 
 whereby it passes from death unto life. 
 
 2. It is the new birth of the soul whereby 
 we become children of God. It is called 
 in the Scriptures, " being born again," 
 " born of the Spirit," being " new creatures 
 
Usages of the Methodist Church. 7 
 
 in Christ Jesus," being " renewed after the 
 image of God," and " born of God." John 
 iii. 3, 8 ; 2 Cor. v. 7 ; Eph. iv.-34 ; i John 
 iii. 2 ; John i. 12, 13. 
 
 3. Justification is the pardon of sin, where- 
 by we become relatively just ; regeneration 
 is a renewal of the nature through which we 
 become actually just. Rom. viii. 1-4., 
 
 V. THE WITNESS OF THE SPIRIT.-- 
 
 1. By the witness of the Spirit is meant 
 the direct testimony of the Holy Spirit to 
 the soul of the believer — not only of God's 
 good will towards him, but that his sins are 
 blotted out, and that he is reconciled to 
 God, and adopted into his family. Acts v. 
 32 ; XV. 8 ; 2 Cor. i. 22 ; Eph. i. 13 ; Rom. 
 viii. 16 ; Gal. iv. 6. 
 
 2. The secondary evidence is the witness 
 of our own spirit, or the testimony of per- 
 sonal consciousness of the fulfilment of the 
 divine promises, and the exhibition of the 
 
8 Prominetit Doctrines and Peculiar 
 
 fruits of the Spirit in Christian character 
 and life, i John iv. 13 ; iii. 20, 21 ; Rom. 
 V. I, S, II ; 2.Cor. i. 12 ; Gal. v. 22, 23. 
 
 VI. FALLING FROM GRACE. 
 
 The Methodist Church does not admit 
 that apostasy from God, or that any degree 
 of backsliding is necessary; but it does 
 admit that it is possible so to fall from, the 
 favour of God as to perish ; and for the 
 following reasons : 
 
 1. Some angels have irrecoverably fallen 
 from their original holiness, and from the 
 favour of God. Jude vi ; 2 Pet. ii. 4. 
 
 2. Our first parents fell from original 
 holiness, and became subject to the dis- 
 pleasure of God. Job xxxi. 7^1 ; Rom. v. 
 14-19 ; Gen. iii. 24. 
 
 3- Direct affirmations that final apostasy 
 is possible. Matt. xxiv. 12, 13 ; i Cor. ix. 
 2; ; Heb. x. 26, 17. Ezek. xxxiii. 12, 13. 
 
 4. The Scriptures abound in cautions 
 
\, 
 
 Usages of the Methodist Church, & 
 
 and warnings against final apostasy. Matt. 
 V. 13; Mark 13. 34-3;; Luke xxii. 40; 
 John XV. 2-6 ; Rom. xi. 20, 21 ; and numer- 
 ous other passages. 
 
 5. Some have so fallen from grace. John 
 xiii. 27; Actsi. 25; I Cor. X. 1-6. 
 
 VII. SANCTIFICATION. 
 
 Methodism preaches a salvation for all 
 men, a salvation for the whole man, and 
 for the whole life of man. 
 
 i. "When we begin to believe, then 
 sanctification begins, and as faith increases 
 holiness increases." — Wesley. 
 
 2. Sanctification is the purification of the 
 heart of the believer from all sin. It 
 begins in regeneration, but does not end 
 there. It is received by faith. Acts xxvi. 
 16 ; I John i. 7-9. 
 
 3. In the life of religious experience, 
 sanctification exists in different degrees! 
 Its progress is seen in the increase of faith, 
 
10 Prominent Doctrines and Peculiar 
 
 hope and love. It is the process by which 
 integrity of moral character and conduct 
 are realized. 2 Pet. iii. 18; i Pet. i. 15, 16; 
 2 Pet. i. 4-8. 
 
 4. It is completed in an important sense 
 when the believer is made holy in heart 
 and life, i Pet. i. 15. This state of grace 
 is sometimes called " Entire Sanctification " 
 I Thess. V. 21, 24 ; Col. i. 22. Sometimes 
 it is called " Perfect Love." i John iv. 
 16, 17. 
 
 S- We m.ay be made perfect in love or 
 wholly sanctified in this life. Eph. v. 25- 
 2J ; I John i. ; : Matt. v. 8 ; xxii. 37-40 ; 
 Ezek. xxxvi. 25. 
 
 6. Entire Sanctification in its attainment 
 is usually gradual—it may be instantaneous, 
 as, like Justification, it is received by faith. 
 Acts XV. 9. 
 
 7. This state of grace is both attained 
 and maintained by faith in the atonement. 
 Heb. X. 10, 14, 22, 38. 
 
Usages of the Methodist Church. 1 1 
 
 CHRISTIAN SAOEAMENTS. 
 
 I. BAPTISM. 
 
 1. Christian baptism is a religious rite, 
 consisting of an external application of 
 water to a person in a justified relation to 
 God, or earnestly seeking such a relation, 
 by an authorized minister of the Gospel, 
 in the name of the Father, and of the Son, 
 and of the Holy Ghost. Matt, xxviii. 19 ; 
 Acts viii. 26-39 ; X. 47, 48. 
 
 2. Christian baptism was instituted by 
 our Lord after his resurrection, and en- 
 joined by his Apostles. Matt, xxviii. 19 ; 
 Acts ii. 38. 
 
 3. It is an outward and visible sign and 
 seal of inward grace, either sought or 
 attained : Of saving grace sought, Acts 
 ii. 1% ; viii. ^6, 2,7 ; of saving grace attained, 
 Gal. iii. 27; i Pet. iii. 21. 
 
 4. It is an initiatory rite by which 
 
12 Prominent Boo'rines and Peculiar 
 
 persons are admitted into the Christian 
 Church. Acts ii. 41, 47 ; xvi. 31-34. 
 
 S. The proper subjects for baptism are : 
 {a) Infants. Because they are, through 
 the atonement, in a justified state and 
 relation to God. Rom. v. 15, 18 ; Mark x. 
 13-16. Our Lord declares infants to be 
 subjects of the kingdom of heaven, and 
 welcomes them to himself, and to the pri- 
 vileges of the kingdom. Matt xviii. 2-5, 
 10; xix. 14; Acts ii. 39. 
 
 {b) Adult believers. Because they have 
 been born again through faith in Christ. 
 Acts viii. 16, 37 ; X. 47 ; Mark xvi. 16. 
 
 {c) True penitents are suitable subjects 
 for baptism. They may receive it as a 
 means of grace sought; as a sign and 
 seal of the baptism of the Spirit ; as a 
 help to a greater faith by which in the 
 symbol they may find the reality. Acts 
 ii. i^. 
 
 6. The mode of baptism in the Methodist 
 
/ 
 
 Usages of the Methodist Church. 13 
 
 Church is by pouring or sprinkh'ng, but the 
 candidates for baptism may be immersed 
 '\{ they so desire it. 
 
 II. THE LORD'S SUPPER. 
 
 1. The Lord's Supper is a positive insti- 
 tution of the Christian Church, and the 
 obHgation of observing it rests upon all the 
 disciples of Christ. Mark xiv. 22-24 ; Matt 
 xxvi. 26, 27 ; I Cor. xi. 23, 25. 
 
 2. This sacrament is to be continued in 
 the Church in remembrance of Christ until 
 he come* again. i Cor. v. j,%'^ xi. 26 ; 
 Luke xxii. 19. 
 
 3. It is designed to remind us of the 
 humanity of Christ, i Cor. xi. 24 ; of his 
 sacrificial .sufferings for us, Phil. ii. 7, 8 ; 
 and of our redemption by his death, i Cor. 
 xi. 26; x. 16; Luke xxii. 19, 20.

 14 Prominent Doctrines and Peculiar 
 
 PEOULIAE USAGES OF METHODISM. 
 
 1. CLASS MEETINGS. 
 I. The design of class-meetings is to 
 afford to Christians frequent opportunities 
 of conversation in reference to their personal 
 religious experience, and of praying with 
 and for each other ; of receiving the word 
 of exhortation ; of watching over one 
 another in love, so that they may help each 
 other to work out their salvation, and thus 
 fulfil the law of Christ. 
 
 2. They are, as to their character and 
 design, eminently Scriptural. Heb. x. 24, 
 25 ; James v. 16 ; Col. iii. 16 ; Ps. \yiv\. 16 ; 
 Mai. iii 16, 17. 
 
 II. LOVE-FEASTS. 
 Love-feasts, or feasts of charity, were 
 held by the apostolic churches. Their 
 design is to show forth the love and fellow- 
 ship of Christians by a plain feast of bread 
 
 *^. 
 
Usages of the Methodise Church. 15 
 
 and water, and to give them an opportunity 
 to speak together of religious experience, 
 for the purpose of encouragement in the 
 Christian Hfe. Love-feasts are Scriptural. 
 Acts ii. 42, 46 ; XX. 7 ; Jude 12. 
 
 III. ITINERANT MINISTRY. 
 
 A prominent peculiarity in the economy 
 of Methodism is its itinerant ministry, 
 adopted with a view of meeting a want not 
 fully met by a settled pastorate. 
 
 1. In its character and design it is Scrip- 
 tural. Our Lord " went about doing good/' 
 teaching and preaching in the cities of 
 Judaea and throughout Galilee. Matt. iv. 23. 
 
 2. The apostles and evangelists were 
 travelling ministers. Mark x. 5-1 1 ; Matt, 
 xxviii. 19. 
 
 3. From the " Acts of the Apostles " we 
 may learn how truly and extensively the 
 apostles and their assistants itinerated in 
 their ministry. Acts viii. 4, 5, 40 ; xi. 19, 20.
