Thomas, how do you think John Wesley would have been received by most of the posters on these threads, after all we are looking at a man who has faced lynch mobs plenty of times because he made them mad.

I dare not even compare myself to either of the Wesley brothers because I know that they were superior in both intellect and charity. Does this mean their theology was 100% correct? Actually I agree more with Whitefield. George Whitefield believed in predestination, the Wesleys' did not. Nevertheless, Whitefield had the biggest gatherings. When confronted by Wesley why he didn't preach to those predestined he replied he didn't know who is saved and who is not so he'll just preach to them all.

Now you course the motive for your post is to drive home the point that I am over zealous but consider this. So many people think they are alright with God because nobody has told them otherwise. So many quote bible scriptures when it suits their purposes but more than likely they have never read the bible in its entirety from cover to cover to see what it's really saying.

BTW, thank you for that link, I honor men like the Wesleys and think more people should see what they had to say.

Chris
