A critical presentation of the writings of John Wesley has long
been needed, especially in view of the quickened interest in him
and his ecumenical churchmanship. This edition is planned to
consist of thirty-four volumes including all of Wesley's original
or mainly original prose works--his letters, sermons, journals and
diaries as well as his specifically doctrinal writings. The final
volumes will contain a bibliography of the works of John and
Charles Wesley and a General Index. The text for this edition
represents Wesley's thought in its fullest and most deliberate
expression. All substantive variant readings are noted in
appendixes, and introductions and footnotes elucidate the text.
This volume, containing The Appeals to Men of Reason and
Religion, is the first to be published. The aim of Wesley's Appeals
was to correct current misconceptions of his movement. In the
course of refuting attacks upon himself, Wesley also presented a
positive statement of his theological and ecclesiastical position.
Yet the attacks continued. This volume contains also his open
letters replying to Edmund Gibson, Bishop of Exeter, and to William
Warburton, Bishop of Gloucester.
