An Answer To The First Part Of An Anonymous Pamphlet Entitled Observations Upon The Conduct And Behaviour Of A Certain Sect Usually Distinguished By The Name Of METHODISTS. In A Letter To The Right Reverend The Bishop Of London,. By George Whitefield The work is a polemical response to critical anonymous writings about the Methodist movement. Whitefield explains his aim to publish an open reply to the pamphlets, defends his conduct and doctrinal positions, and asserts loyalty to King George and the government. He discusses the authority of church superiors, the legitimacy of field preaching, the place of Methodists within the Church of England, and the relationship between religious societies and civil law. He argues for charitable and measured critique, while challenging the accusations of disloyalty and sedition. The Second Edition clarifies edition-wide alterations and emphasizes a call for impartial examination of the Methodists and their practices within London and Westminster. The text ultimately seeks to defend Anglican church order and to promote a careful, principled response to religious dissent.
