More quotes by John Wesley
To slay the sinner is then the first use of the Law, to destroy the life and strength wherein he trusts and convince him that he is dead while he lives not only under the sentence of death, but actually dead to God, void of all spiritual life, dead in trespasses and sins.
John Wesley
When you set yourself on fire, people love to come and see you burn.
John Wesley
Do no harm. Do good. Stay in love with God.
John Wesley
In returning I read a very different book, published by an honest Quaker , on that execrable sum of all villanies, commonly called the Slave-trade.
John Wesley
Lord, is it not Thy word, if any man lack wisdom, let him ask of God? Thou givest liberally, and upbraidest not. Thou hast said, if any be willing to do Thy will, he shall know. I am willing to do, let me know Thy will.
John Wesley
The first priority of my life is to be holy, and the second goal of my life is to be a scholar.
John Wesley
In all cases, the Church is to be judged by the Scripture, not the Scripture by the Church.
John Wesley
One of the principal rules of religion is, to lose no occasion of serving God. And, since he is invisible to our eyes, we are to serve him in our neighbour which he receives as if done to himself in person, standing visibly before us.
John Wesley
Whatever the natural cause, sin is the true cause of all earthquakes.
John Wesley
The best of all is God with us
John Wesley
Though we cannot think alike, may we not love alike? May we not be of one heart, though we are not of one opinion? Without all doubt, we may. Herein all the children of God may unite, notwithstanding these smaller differences.
John Wesley
Passion and prejudice govern the world only under the name of reason.
John Wesley
As to matters of dress, I would recommend one never to be first in the fashion nor the last out of it.
John Wesley
It cannot be that the people should grow in grace unless they give themselves to reading. A reading people will always be a knowing people.
John Wesley
If we cannot think alike, at least we may love alike and can anything but love beget love?
John Wesley
Proceed with much prayer, and your way will be made plain.
John Wesley
Money never stays with me. It would burn me if it did. I throw it out of my hands as soon as possible, lest it should find its way into my heart.
John Wesley
Oh Lord, let me not live to be useless.
John Wesley
The best helps to growth in grace are the ill usage, the affronts, and the losses which befall us. We should receive them with all thankfulness, as preferable to all others, were it only on this account, that our will has no part therein.
John Wesley
The neglect of prayer is a grand hindrance to holiness.
John Wesley
