In New England the Methodist message of universal atonement was
shaped by its engagement with the orthodox Calvinism that dominated
the area's theological, social, and political culture. Methodists
challenged the traditional interpretations of election and
predestination with an Arminian theology that emphasized free will
and the individual's cooperation in the process of salvation. In
this book over 600 Scripture texts, sermon outlines, and complete
sermons written by more than one hundred Methodist preachers
capture the theological struggle between Arminianism and Calvinism
in New England. Although it includes a history of Methodism's
introduction into New England, the greater part of this study
focuses on the Methodist preachers and their sermons, including
their choice of Scripture and reference material. The theological
differences separating the Wesleyans from the Calvinist, or
Reformed, Congregationalists become clear. This book should be
valuable to scholars and students interested in the development of
Methodist theology and practice and of American Christianity in
general, but the non-specialist will find it accessible and
informative as well.
