Synopsis
The Wesleyan Local Preacher's Manual, written by George Smith and first published in 1858, is a comprehensive guide for local preachers in the Wesleyan Methodist Church. The book is divided into three sections: Biblical Science, Theology, and Church History. In the first section, Smith covers topics such as the inspiration and authority of the Bible, biblical interpretation, and the history of the canon. The second section delves into the doctrines of the Christian faith, including the nature of God, the Trinity, and the atonement. The final section focuses on the history of the Christian Church, from its origins in the New Testament to the present day. Throughout the book, Smith provides practical advice for local preachers, including tips on sermon preparation and delivery, as well as guidance on pastoral care and evangelism. The Wesleyan Local Preacher's Manual is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and theology of the Wesleyan Methodist Church, as well as for those seeking to improve their skills as preachers and teachers of the Christian faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
