Excerpt from Methodist Worthies, Vol. 1: Characteristic Sketches of Methodist Preachers of the Several Denominations, With Historical Sketch of Each ConnexionIn a remarkable manner the Spirit of God gave most convincing evidence of the completeness of the change which had been wrought by faith in both the brothers. This was more distinctly and emphati cally shown by the spiritual awakening which accompanied and followed the preaching of John Wesley. He had to preach in St. Mary's Church, Oxford, before the University. His text was, By grace are ye saved through faith and he explained the new doctrine with a clearness, fulness, and force which had not been known before in that famous seat of learning. That sermon was printed and widely circulated. It was followed by another on God's free grace, in which, with equal lucidity and power, he set forth the doctrine that the grace and love of God is free in all, and free for all. This sermon was printed in a cheap form, and those sermons, repeated in various forms and places, gave birth to the greatest revival of religion the world has ever known.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
