Methodist movement to his contemporaries. The author has made this
tract intelligible for modern readers who struggle with the meaning
of 18th century British English. The editor offers introductions to
each of the tracts with helpful explanations of the historical
background and meanings.
During the 1720s, John Wesley began his quest to understand
biblical holiness theologically and to experience it personally.
Over the following decades, he preached and wrote about
sanctification, carefully refining his grasp of the subject. This
long-term investigation led him to study Scripture, reason,
experience, and the Christian tradition. Then, in 1766, he
published A Plain Account of Christian Perfection. That book went
through several revisions and expansions, and in 1777, he issued
his final edition of this work. Wesley's Plain Account of Christian
Perfection became a Christian classic that now stands in the
company of such devotional works as Thomas a Kempis's Imitation of
Christ, William Law's Serious Call to a Devout Holy Life, Richard
Baxter's The Reformed Pastor, and Jeremy Taylor's Holy Living and
Holy Dying. This edition of the Plain Account is a transcription
provided by one of the leading Wesley scholars in the world.
