John Wesley Resource Page

Do not consider who speaks, but what is spoken.
If it be possible, for one hour lay prejudice aside;
give what is advanced a fair hearing.
Consider simply on each head,
Is this true, or is it false? Is it reasonable, or is it not?
If you ask, But in whose judgment? I answer, In your own:
I appeal to the light of your own mind.
Is there not a faithful witness in your own breast?
By this you must stand or fall.
You cannot be judged by another mans conscience.
Judge for yourself by the best light you have.
And the merciful God teach me and thee
whatsoever we know not!
