Book Description
Excerpt from The Discipline of the Primitive Methodist Church in Canada: Approved by Conference The Primitive Methodist Church is an original Community, not founded in schism, nor in ecclesiastical agitation. Its first Members were converted from the world: and on the establishment of English Camp Meetings by Hugh Bourne and William Clowes, the Revival, by God's providence, took the form of a distinct Determination. This Body in Britain now takes rank amongst Methodist Communities next the Wesleyan in numerical strength, Missionary power, and success in the salvation of sinners. In 1830 a mission was formed in Toronto, which has been enlarged through a portion of Western Canada. In 1853 the English Conference made the Canadian stations into a separate Conference, for the purpose of more effectually carrying on the work of God: but the English and Canadian conferences are still united. The Laws by which the Connexion is governed have been in use from the commencement in Canada; but the Conference of 1860 directed that a Book of Discipline should be compiled, suited to the Church in this country. That Book of Discipline being now out of print; and alterations and new Rules having been made during the last eleven years, it was found necessary to consolidate these various regulations, and embody them in a new publication of the Discipline.
