    Proceedings OF THE Wesley Historical Society Editor: REv. JOHN C. BOWMER, M.A., B.D., Ph.D. Volume xxxvm August 1971 THE "TUCK NET" CONTROVERSY OF 1824 [The writer wishes to acknowledge the help given by the Baptist Union and the Baptists of Penzance in the compilation of this article.] OMPARATIVELY little has been written of the relationship of Methodism to Dissent in the early nineteenth century. CWhilst Dissent shared the renewal of the Evangelical Revival, there was much odium theologicum from the Calvinist-Arminian dispute; the Dissenting historians David Bogue and lames Bennett charged Wesleyan Methodism in 1812 with error, scriptural ignor­ ance, and enthusiasm. The tendency of Wesleyanism to regard itself as midway between Church and Dissent was an irritation; Dissenters much preferred the attitude of the various non- Wesleyan Methodist bodies. The general touchiness of contemporary Protest­ antism further prevented mutual understanding. Local conditions doubtless varied widely, but most of these factors emerged in a dispute between the Wesleyans and the Baptists of Penzance in 1824. This" Tuck Net" controversy-so called from the title of one of the pamphlets written by the Baptist minister, G. C. Smith-was far removed in spirit from the great Free Church alliance with which the century was to end. This rather squalid dispute sheds light upon the ecclesiastical life of the neighbourhood, and shows a Baptist interest in certain Wesleyan Methodist internal problems in the second decade of the nineteenth century. Wesleyan Methodism in Penzance was very strong. The Pen­ zance circuit in 1824 returned 2,110 members, of whom about 430 came from Penzance, and 118 from Newlyn.

  • Anglican Worship and Sacramental Theology 1
    The Beauty of Holiness: Anglican Worship and Sacramental Theology 1 THE CONGRESS OF TRADITIONAL ANGLICANS June 1–4, 2011 - Victoria, BC, Canada An Address by The Reverend Canon Kenneth Gunn-Walberg, Ph.D. Rector of St. Mary’s, Wilmington, Delaware After Morning Prayer Friday in Ascensiontide, June 3, 2011 THE BEAUTY OF HOLINESS: ANGLICAN WORSHIP AND SACRAMENTAL THEOLOGY When I was approached by Fr. Sinclair to make this presentation, he suggested that the conceptual framework of the lectures would be that they be positive presentations of traditional Anglican principles from both a biblical and historical perspective and in the light of the contemporary issues in contrast to traditional Anglicanism, especially as expressed in the Affirmation of St. Louis and in the 39 Articles. The rubrics attached to this paper were that Anglican worship should be examined in the light of contemporary liturgies, the Roman Rite, and the proposed revision of the Book of Common Prayer to bring it in line with Roman views. This perforce is a rather tall order; so let us begin. The late Pulitzer Prize winning poet W.H. Auden stated that the Episcopal Church “seems to have gone stark raving mad…And why? The Roman Catholics have had to start from scratch, and as any of them with a feeling for language will admit, they have made a cacophonous horror of the mass. Whereas we had the extraordinary good fortune in that our Prayer Book was composed at exactly the right historical moment. The English language had become more or less what it is today…but the ecclesiastics of the 16 th century still professed a feeling for the ritual and ceremonies which today we have almost entirely lost.” 1 While one might quibble somewhat with what he said, he certainly would have been more indignant had he witnessed me little more than a decade after his death celebrating the Eucharist before the Dean and Canons of St.
