After he died his followers left Anglicanism and started the Methodist denomination.AnswerJohn Wesley founded the Methodist movement in 1739. He was originally an Anglican like his father. A quick search of the internet can provide a number of very good biographical summaries of his life.Answer:The first one is correct. Methodism was not founded by John Wesley. It was founded by Christians in America based on the the teachings of John Wesley. This was done actually right before his death. The first he heard of the American church called Methodism was on his deathbed and he was saddened. Wesley remained an Anglican throughout his life. The term "methodist" was first used by other Oxford students to describe the bible study group that John and Charles formed. They were called "methodists" as an insult, because they were very methodical in their studies and practices. It was not a term coined by Wesley to describe a church he created. In the most basic form his theology was that we are saved by the Grace of God, and as such should do all the good we can in His name while on earth. His sermons are amazing to read.
