Was John Wesley a Pretender?

This article examines the life and work of John Wesley in an attempt to determine whether or not his conversion was genuine. It includes an excerpt taken from Wesley’s Journal in which he recounts the events leading up to his conversion experience. The provocative conclusion is, he may or may not have been a Pretender, but his Journal is certainly interesting reading.

A Question for the Sleeper: Are You Aware You Are Snoring?

After a short introduction, this article provides excerpts from The Works of John Wesley (London: 1872). The excerpts present the Gospel message that John Wesley understood and preached as well as his understanding of the work the Holy Spirit does in the lives of born-again Believers. His words are a powerful rebuke of the impotent “gospel” messages being preached by the so-called “evangelists” in the Church today.
