Any 'Christians' who take for themselves any more than the plain necessaries of life, live in an open habitual denial of the Lord. They have gained riches and hell-fire.
John WesleyI cannot help leaving my books behind me whenever God calls me hence; but in every other respect, my own hands will be my executors.
John WesleyMen of learning began to set experiments aside...to form theories...and to substitute these in the place of experiments.
John WesleyIn using all means, seek God alone. In and through every outward thing, look only to the power of His Spirit, and the merits of His Son. Beware you do not get stuck in the work itself; if you do, it is all lost labor. Nothing short of God can satisfy your soul. Therefore, fix on Him in all, through all, and above all...Remember also to use all means as means-as ordained, not for their own sake.
John Wesley
