Wesley was a good and sincere man, but he was mistaken in his notion of Christianity. It was evil that he should have created a further sect. Yet because he and his followers were sincere God blessed their goodwill in many things, drawing good from their work in spite of the undoubted evil of preaching erroneous doctrines as if they were indeed the true doctrines of Christ. Meantime God wills for Wesleyans the greater good still of a return to the Catholic Church.

Millions were saved from sin by the revivals started by Wesley and his contemporaries and this ignorant man has the gall to call that evil.

Actually, God wills for all mankind to be born-again out of their life of sin into a life of salvation and sin-free living.

This is what Wesley preached.

A freedom from sin inspired and created by faith in the Son of God and the sacrifice he made on Calvary. A freedom from the dead works of man and the traditions of men masquerading as the edicts of God.

A freedom to live above sin, not continually sinning and having to confess your sin on a regular basis to mortal man.

This is the Godly freedom Wesly preached and it is the same Gospel that Jesus and his Apostles presented as well.

I dare say that this author cannot point to anything Wesley preached that runs counter to the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the Bible.

I’ve read through most of Wesley’s works, his notes on the New Testament and Old Testament and have as yet to find anything that is incorrect from a theological point of view with regards to the Bible.

Furthermore, it was the works of John Wesley, primarily his sermon on the “Righteouse of Faith” that God used to save my soul from sin and cause me to be Born Again.

So from a personal perspective, I know the author does not know what he is talking about when he says these kind of things about Wesley.
