"Occasionally a book is truly important. This book is one The skillfully argued and closely documented work will be the standard work on the subject from which all subsequent works must begin." --David Bundy,

"Larry Wood shows decisively that John Fletcher, Wesley's designated successor, simply spells out John and Charles Wesley's theological understanding in Luke-Acts language. This is a must purchase for all theological libraries and a must read for all Wesleyan scholars and serious Christians." D. William Faupel

"This work will stand as one of the most important Wesleyan studies of our generation. This landmark thoroughly documented study convincingly demonstrates that the traditional Wesleyan and holiness teaching and experience of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, far from being the nineteenth century invention of the American Holiness Movement, was rooted in the Wesley brothers themselves." --William Kostlevy

"This is a great book. Through extensive research Larry Wood presents a strong case for the pervasive linkage of Pentecostal language to Wesleyan concepts of sanctification." --Henry H. Knight III

Perhaps the most evocative definition of early Methodism was that it was 'Church-of-Englandism felt.' Laurence Wood shows how even the classic Wesley emphasis on sanctification was rooted deeply in the Anglican tradition of the Wesleys." --Lester Ruth

"What a wonderful gift Larry Wood has given us in this book It is lavishly documented from the sermons, journals, letters and hymns of John and Charles Wesley. The careful reader will notice much previously uncharted territory here, in terms of the roots, influences and sources which shaped the founder's main ideas. Particularly interesting and significant is Wood's careful attention to the development and nuancing of the key theme of Pentecost - down through the years - and bringing it into connection with the rite of Christian confirmation." --John Tyson,

"Four decades in the making, this timely book explores the closely related themes of Pentecost and the baptism of the Holy Spirit in John and Charles Wesley's writings in a way that is both theologically illuminating and spiritually inspiring. For those interested in the doctrine of sanctification in the Wesleyan tradition and the Wesleyan roots of Pentecostalism, Professor Wood's work is must reading." --Jason E. Vickers
