William Mason (religious writer)

William Mason (1719 – 29 September 1791) was a Christian Calvinist writer from England.

[2] He wrote a number of Christian books, and was twice briefly editor of The Gospel Magazine, immediately before and immediately after Augustus Montague Toplady.

He was originally a follower of John Wesley, but abandoned Wesleyan Arminianism in favour of the Calvinist teachings of George Whitefield.

As a theological writer, he focussed on doctrinal issues, including justification by faith, predestination and the afterlife.

William Mason died of a stroke at the age of 72.
