	John Fletcher: a biographical sketch
		Giles Fletcher the elder was his uncle, and Giles and Phineas Fletcher his cousins.
		Beaumont and Fletcher were the first recruits to the profession of play-writing who came of distinguished families and habitually moved in wealthy circles; and this social environment was early suggested as an explanation of their power of representing naturally the conversation of high-born ladies and gentlemen.
		The play, as Fletcher confesses in his address To the Reader, was unsuccessful on the stage, but the beauty of its lyric and descriptive poetry has given it, in spite of its weak dramatic quality, a distinguished place in literature.

		John Fletcher's doctrine of dispensations is not to be confused with Darby and Schofield.

		John Fletcher did his best to repair the breach and heal the wounds; his labours, though praised by all concerned, were of no avail; minds had been made up and there was an unattractive, unrelenting spirit abroad.
		Fletcher found that it was pointless trying to argue with people about spiritual matters if they were not born-again; he did not try to convince them that he was right, therefore, by tirades and letters of self-justification, he meekly bore the persecution.

	John Fletcher Rediscovered (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Although Fletcher did not literally and simply equate Pentecost and Christian perfection, he believed that the primary purpose of the Pentecostal outpouring of the Spirit was for the sanctification of the Church, which began on the day of Pentecost.
		Fletcher quotes from one of Dr. Heylyn's Pentecost sermons in which he says:“To wash, cleanse, baptize, and sanctify, are commonly synonymous in Scripture; hence the phrase being baptized with the Holy Ghost, which is elsewhere called being baptized with fire, to signify the universal and intimate purification of the inmost springs of action thereby.
		Fletcher believed the significance of the Methodist revival was that it had made this theme more consistent and had raised the believer’s consciousness of the real possibility of loving God perfectly with one’s heart.
