God would first, by this inspiration of his Spirit, have wrought in our hearts that holy love without which none can enter into glory.
John WesleyTo 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
