The Works of the Rev. John Wesley, Vol. 04 (of 32)
1771
John Wesley was a force of nature who reshaped Christianity, and these sermons show why. Volume 4 of his collected works opens with a ferocious examination of self-denial, the kind that doesn't let you off the hook. Wesley argues that following Christ demands we surrender our own desires entirely, not as punishment but as the only path to true freedom. He dismantles the comfortable misconceptions people hold about faith, insisting that Christian discipline isn't optional add-on but the very substance of discipleship. Written in 1771, these pages carry the fire of a man who preached to thousands and organized a movement that would span continents. Whether you come as a scholar of religious history, a Methodist curious about your tradition's roots, or a reader drawn to powerful prose that refuses to coddle, Wesley's voice still speaks across two and a half centuries with startling directness.
