In conversation a number of years ago with an esteemed friend, tho Rev. (now Dr.) James Linn, of Bellefonte, Pa. the preparation of this work was first suggested. Three editions having been favorably received by the Christian public, the writer has been induced by the solicitations of honored brethren, to issue in an enlarged, and he hopes, improved form, a fourth edition. The work has not only been carefully revised, but in a great measure re-written. Every where the argument has been extended, and he trusts, strengthened, especially by quotations from leading Arminian authorities. The Letter on Imputed Righteousness is entirely new, being necessary to complete the investigation of the Difficulties of Arminian Methodism. It has been the aim of the author to make his book, as far as possible, a full and satisfactory expose of the polemical weaknesses of modern A rminianism. For this end he has gone to the fountains, to the accredited authorities of Episcopal Methodism. It has been his earnest desire to make her best and ablest writers speak for themselves. In connection with Arminian errors, he has also given a concise statement of revealed truth. An entirely new feature in the re-construction of this work, is the review of the Objections to Calvinism, a work highly eulogized by Bishop Simpson, of Pittsburgh. This book has been constantly by our side, its most important and objectionable characteristics have been fairly stated, and if we mistake not, fully invalidated; and in not a few instances, we trust, logically thrown back upon its author and indorsers.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
