Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History of the Revisions of the Discipline of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South This book has been prepared for those who desire to understand the nature of the changes which from time to time have been made in the Discipline, and to trace the historical progress of legislation in our Church. It is constructed on the plan followed by Rev. David Sherman, D.D., in his excellent "History of the Discipline of the Methododist Episcopal Church." This plan possesses several obvious advantages, the chief of which is that the Discipline is made to be, so to speak, its own historian. The reader sees at a glance not only what changes have been made, but also how and when they were introduced, and has in a single volume, chronologically arranged, all that at any time has been in the Discipline of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. The Discipline of 1844 has been made the basis of this work. In other words, the present edition (1886) is here compared with that of 1844, and all the changes since made are noted in proper order. The Discipline of 1844 has been made the starting-point - first, because until the organization of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, in 1845, that was the law-book of the Southern as well as of the other Conferences; and, second, because by beginning with the Discipline of 1844 connection is made with the histories prepared by Emory and Sherman, which go back to the beginning of Methodism. In treating of the Articles of Religion and the Ritual it was deemed best to begin with the Thirty-nine Articles and the Ritual of the Church of England, from which Mr. Wesley extracted our Articles (except the Twenty-third) and the Ritual. The compiler has labored assiduously to make this work as nearly accurate as possible, and it is now committed to the press in the hope that it will be favorably received.
