Since that time I have published a volume on The Church nianship of John Wesley, which may perhaps be' regarded as another contribution towards the same object.

Living Thoughts of John Wesley
Author: John Wesley
Publisher: Forgotten Books

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 564
Book Description
Excerpt from Living Thoughts of John Wesley: A Comprehensive Selection of the Living Thoughts of the Founder of Methodism as Contained in His Miscellaneous Works The works of Rev. John Wesley are a gold-mine of doctrine and instruction; but, like other gold-mines, they contain a few things which are not gold. The two volumes of his sermons are nearly all pure gold. His journals and correspondence are also rich and valuable. His miscellaneous writings, however, require some sifting before their circulation in this country can be much revived. There is so much of the controversial element in them, so much of personal or merely local reference having no present significance, and so much of general discussion and argumenta tion pertaining to the Old World of a century ago that Amer icans do not feel much interested in them. Many trivial matters are also to be found, and several of the important treatises, like the French, Latin, Greek, and Hebrew grammars, have become obsolete. But scattered along among these old documents are many liter ary and doctrinal gems of rarest value, needing only a new' typographical background, better mechanical finish, and more modern arrangement and setting to be. Appreciated at their worth and eagerly sought for by all good people. To separate these gems from their old surroundings, group them in convenient and attractive form, and to preserve them from loss in the transition has been the undertaking of the pres ent compiler.

Book Description
Excerpt from Sketch of the Life of Rev. John Wesley, M.A The Indians were found to be inaccessible, and he began work among the colonists. He labored in Georgia for two years, when he was compelled to return to England, having suffered much, acquired three European languages, preached to the scattered settlers, and taken steps to give the Gospel to the Negroes and the Indians. As he was nearing his native shores in January, 1737, Wesley wrote: I went to America to convert Indians, but oh, who shall convert me 1 During his absence, Whitfield had become a flaming evangelist, and having moved all London and Bristol, had just set sail for Georgia. Wesley was yet to receive the new light and the needed impulse. He met Peter Bohler, and was amazed to hear Of the holiness and happiness which sprang from living faith. Wesley studied the New Testament more earnestly, and began extem'poraneous prayer. An instantaneous change of heart was what staggered him most.

The Life of the REV. Charles Wesley (Classic Reprint)
Author: John Telford
Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9780265393413
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 366
Book Description
Excerpt from The Life of the Rev. Charles Wesley In his home, Charles Wesley was admirable indeed. His children found encouragement and guidance in all their pursuits, and were early taught the blessing of true religion. His humility, his freedom from all self-seeking, his affection, and his hearty interest in everything that concerned his friends, find many illustrations in these pages. Charles Wesley often disturbed himself by fears as to the future of Methodism. He was supremely anxious that it should remain a society within the Church of England. He watched it drifting away from his ideal with grave apprehension. He was not always wise in the action which he took, or wished to take, in reference to this matter; NO one who understands his character would expect that he should be. Charles Wesley was not a calm, judicious statesman, like his brother, but a poet, with all a poet's emotion and impulsiveness. He was never made to stand alone, but to work with others who might be roused and cheered by his devotion and his love.
