SHEWING  

HOW THE CHTJECH TREATED THE FOUNDERS OF METHODISM.  

Extract from Wesley’s Works, Vol. 1.  

BY THE  

“ have been drawing up short state of the case between the clergy and us.  

1. About seven years since we began preaching inward, present salvation, as attainable  

by faith alone.  

2. For preaching this doctrine, we were forbidden to preach in the churches.  

3. then preached in private houses, as occasion offered and when the houses could  

not contain the people, in the open air.  

For this many of the clergy preached or printed against us, as both heretics and  

schismatics.  

6. We were represented, both from the pulpit and the press, as introdncing Popery,  

raising sedition, practising both against Church and State  

9. But now several of the Bishops began to speak against us. either in conversation, or  

in public.  

10. On this encouragement, several of the clergy stirred up the people to treat us as  

outlaws or mad dogs.  

11. The people did so, both in Staffordshire, Cornwall, and many other pi ices.”
