To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the language of one of hismost ardent but not undiscriminating admirers, 'he was a Church ofEngland man even in circumstantials; there was not a service or aceremony, a gesture or a habit, for which he had not an unfeignedpredilection. '[710] He was, in fact, a distinctly High Churchman, but aHigh Churchman in a far nobler sense than that in which the term wasgenerally used in the eighteenth century. Indeed, in this latter senseJohn Wesley hardly falls under the denomination at all. As a sta...unchsupporter of the British Constitution, both in Church and State, he wasno doubt in favour of the establishment of the National Church as anessential part of that Constitution. But it was not this view of theChurch which was uppermost in his mind. On several occasions he spokeand wrote of the Church as a national establishment in terms which wouldhave shocked the political High Churchmen of his day. He 'can find notrace of a national Church in the New Testament;'--it is 'a merepolitical institution;'[711] the establishment by Constantine was agigantic evil:' 'the King and the Parliament have no right to prescribeto him what pastor he shall use;'[712] he does not care to discuss thequestion as to whether all outward establishments are a Babel.
