""A Plain Account of Christian Perfection"" is a religious book written by John Wesley, the founder of Methodism. The book aims to provide a clear and concise explanation of the concept of Christian perfection, which Wesley defines as ""the love of God and our neighbor, ruling our tempers, words, and actions."" The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of Christian perfection. Wesley begins by discussing the nature of sin and the need for salvation. He then goes on to explain the process of sanctification, which he sees as a gradual transformation of the believer's character through the work of the Holy Spirit. Throughout the book, Wesley emphasizes the importance of faith, prayer, and obedience in the pursuit of Christian perfection. He also addresses common objections and misunderstandings about the concept, such as the idea that it implies sinlessness or that it is only attainable by a select few. Overall, ""A Plain Account of Christian Perfection"" is a practical and accessible guide for Christians seeking to deepen their faith and grow in holiness. It remains a significant work in the history of Christian theology and continues to be read and studied by believers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Decent and very nice. If you appreciate vigor and wittiness of a 'stump preacher' you should enjoy Mr. Wesley. He has the insight of someone truly called to work in the Christian faith. Even if you do not appreciate holy ghost vigor the book is full of old world English grammar which makes it a easy daily reader.
