SECTION XXX
A Plain Account of Christian Perfection
AS BELIEVED AND TAUGHT
BY THE REV. MR. JOHN WESLEY
FROM THE YEAR 1725 TO THE YEAR 1777.
Without making any changes in "The Plain Account," as originally published in Mr. Wesley's works, we have taken the liberty of dividing it by headings, which we think makes it more readable. — J. A. Wood.
