As I re-read Whitfield's response to this sermon (and yes, I did read Wesley's sermon, and not for the first time), I could not help but notice just how good a job Whitfield did in refuting Wesley's arguments.

If anything, we could all learn a thing or two about how to conduct ourselves in these doctrinal discussions from the tone and nature of Whitfield's response.

In order to conserve bandwidth, I will not post Whitfield's answer on this thread, but will provide a link that you can follow.

We certainly could Jerry. But while I've pointed out that everything I've read indicates that Whitefield and Wesley came to a peaceful resolve, if not agreement, you're the one to suggest Wesley was hypocritical in his gracious remarks at Whitefield's funeral. (Post #15).

Is that the tone we're setting? My guess is that Mr. Whitefield and Mr. Wesley would hope not.
