APRIL 28
Methodism, so called, is the old religion, the religion of the Bible, the religion of the Primitive Church, the religion of the Church of England. This old religion is no other than love, the love of God and of all mankind. … This love is the great medicine of life, the never-failing remedy for all the evils of a disordered world, for all the miseries and vices of men. Wherever this is, there are virtue and happiness going hand in hand.
Sermon at the Foundation of the City Road Chapel
When I devoted to God my ease, my time, my fortune, my life, I did not except my reputation.
Life of Charles Wesley, ii. 283
