Daniel Brevint

Brevint was from the parish of Saint John, Jersey, Channel Islands and was the son and grandson of clergymen.When King Charles I created three fellowships for Channel Islanders at Jesus College, Oxford in 1636, Brevint was chosen from Jersey.He held this position until 1648, when his fellowship was removed by Parliamentary commissioners, and he then returned to Jersey, serving as pastor of Grouville.[1] When King Charles II was restored in 1660, he returned to England, becoming prebendary of Durham Cathedral and rector of Brancepath in December 1660.[1] Brevint's works included anti-Catholic writings and a famous devotional work on the eucharist: Missale Romanum (1672), The Christian Sacrament and Sacrifice (1673), Saul and Samuel at Endor (1674) Fifty years after Brevint's death, an abridgement of "The Christian Sacrament and Sacrifice" (1673) prepared by John Wesley became Methodism's core "authoritative doctrine on the Sacrament" and remains so today.
