Synopsis

Forms For The Administration Of Baptism; The Solemnization Of Matrimony &C., Drawn Up By The Order Of The Primitive Methodist Conference. 1859, For The Use Of Primitive Methodist Ministers. And Sanctioned By The Conference. 1860This volume is a 19th?century collection of standardized liturgical forms used by Primitive Methodist ministers for key religious rites. It assembles explicit forms, prayers, and scripture readings for ceremonies including the administration of baptism, solemnization of matrimony, maternal thanksgiving after childbirth, the Lord’s Supper, renewing the covenant with God, and the burial of the dead. An appendix provides legal directions and chapel practice, such as registration, licensing, and procedures surrounding marriage and worship spaces. The work reflects Victorian Methodist emphasis on decency, order, doctrinal grounding in Scripture, and the relationship between worship, civil law, and church governance. It would have served as an official reference for conducting rites, guiding ministers, congregations, and chapel administration in a structured, ceremonious fashion.
