The Radical Wesley Quotes

“Wesley’s emphasis on holiness must be seen in this light. He did not teach “sinless perfection” but he did teach that love could, and must, become the primary motivating force in the Christian’s life. He repeatedly defined holiness as loving God with all one’s being and loving one’s neighbor as oneself. This meant two things for Wesley: God’s grace is sufficient to perfect the Christian in love, and this love empowers and impels the believer to good works. We must give ourselves to God “in humble faith, and in holy, active, patient love!”
