    Hi,
    Perhaps we should look at the anglican man who became the father of Methodism. Does his fruit show him to be a man appointed by God as a leader and teacher? Is the body of Christ divided?

    Hi,
    This is what Wesley said of the one who is the SON OF GOD

    The distinguishing marks of a Methodist are not his opinions of any sort. His assenting to this or that scheme of Religion, his embracing any particular set of notions, his espousing the judgment of one man or of another, are all quite wide of the point. Whosoever therefore imagines, that a Methodist is a man of such or such an opinion, is grossly ignorant of the whole affair; he mistakes the truth totally. We believe indeed, that all Scripture is given by the inspiration of God, and herein we are distinguished from Jews, Turks, and Infidels. We believe the written word of God to be the only and sufficient rule, both of Christian faith and practice; and herein we are fundamentally distinguished from those of the Romish church. We believe Christ to be the eternal, supreme God; and herein we are distinguished from the Socinians and Arians. But as to all opinions which do not strike at the root of Christianity, we think and let think. So that whatsoever they are, whether right or wrong, they are no distinguishing marks of a; Methodist.

    He thought Jesus was the supreme God?
    And men follow him?

    Hi,
    His belief in asceticism and sacramentalism is challenged by Col2 and he seems to have no concept of rebirth.

    Hi,
    The history of an anglican from whom have come many more divisions.
    But the anglican church was never part of the body of Christ any more than her mother was.

    Hi Keras,
    You mention that as a child you attended a methodist sunday school.
    Is this the church you hope will bring you to salvation?

    Hi t,
    Many are sheltering in hope in the false churches, bewitched and unable to accept the Word as seed.

    are we not suppose to look first that we have the truth before teaching others into it ,

    if not we may end up joining the false teachers line up

    Hi T,
    Most like their truth prepackaged and neatly wrapped.
    Seeking for themselves seems too hard
    They are frightened of deception

    Thus by trusting in man they become deceived
