Law, William: An Affectionate Address. v1. 17 Feb 2011

William Law (1686-1761) was an ordained Anglican and a theological writer.

The full title of this work is, "An Humble, Earnest and Affectionate Address to the Clergy", and this is from the introduction:

Aside from the scriptures, this writing of William Law is among the most spiritually influential of all literary compositions. Men like Charles Wesley, George Whitefield, William Wilberforce, Henry Venn, Thomas Scott, Andrew Murray, and Watchman Nee were a few of the untold thousands who were directly or indirectly influenced by it. That impact is still felt today.

Of all William law's writings, we consider his "Affectionate Address to the Clergy" to be the most important. In it he sets forth what he considered the most urgent need of the 17th century Church. If you take the time to read it, I am sure you will conclude, as we have, that this address still speaks to our most pressing need.

I recently had the opportunity to research the 9 Volumes of William Law's works. While many (including John Wesley) commended his artistry and forceful writing. This only applied to the two books published before 1730. By 1735 Law had 'migrated' to the Mysticism of Jakob Boehme. While many of the sentences and words used are interpreted by us in an evangelical context, they had long ceased to mean the same thing to Law by the year of His death (1761). I don't really know if someone can lose their salvation (See Hebrews Chapter 10) but William Law came pretty close.

He did indeed become more mystical but even though this book was his last I think that he really hits the nail on the head with much of what he wrote. It's a clear call to the church leaders of his day to move beyond the formal religiosity that was sometimes prevalent.

(Sounds like you have an interesting line of work).
