Methodists are [[Protestants]] and believe the [[Bible]] to be a form of revelation along with reason, church tradition, and personal experience.  They are [[Arminianism|Arminian]] in doctrine, but unlike Arminian [[Baptists]], Methodists baptize infants. Methodists are also characterized by their belief in [[Christian Perfection]], the doctrine that teaches that a person, in his earthly life, can reach a state where he is able not to sin. Like [[Pentecostalism|Pentecostals]], Methodists also emphasize the importance of revival in the church.
