METHODISM;

In certain Points,

WITH

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST.

By a Minister of the Church of England.

"All Errors, Sects, and Heresies, as they are mixed with some inferior truths, to
make them the more passable to others; so do they usually owe their original to some

deceived."
Bishop Saunderson's Preface to his Sermons.
