John Wesley Quotes

“First, Wesley believed that "works of piety" and "works of mercy" are inseparable companions in the genuine Christian life. Authentic personal holiness is also social holiness. Bible study, prayer, fasting, Christian conversation, the Lord's Supper, public worship, and the other disciplines of the Christian life are critical to the holy life; but holy living is impossible until Christians engage in "doing good" to their neighbors. In word and deed, faith must be active in love. God's grace prepares us, accepts us, and sustains us. But then God's grace expects something of us: our faithful discipleship and ministry in Christ's name, undergirded by the presence and power of the Holy Spirit.”
― Charles Yrigoyen, John Wesley: Holiness of Heart and Life
