Denying ourselves and taking up our cross isn’t a little side issue—it is absolutely necessary to becoming or continuing to become a disciple of Jesus.

What Is Sin? – Mother of John Wesley
Whatever weakens your reasoning, impairs the tenderness of your conscience, obscures your sense of God, or takes away your relish for spiritual things, in short, if anything increases the authority of the flesh over the spirit, that to you becomes sin, however good it is in itself.

What Parents Should Teach Their Children – John Wesley
Ye that are truly kind parents, in the morning, in the evening, and all the day beside, press upon all your children, “to walk in love, as Christ also loved us, and gave himself for us;” to mind that one point, “God is love; and he that dwelleth in love, dwelleth in God, and God in him.”

The Bible was Written By One of Three People – John Wesley
This book [the Bible] had to be written by one of three people: good men, bad men or God. It couldn’t have been written by good men because they said it was inspired by the revelation of God. Good men don’t lie and deceive. It couldn’t have been written by bad men because bad men would not write something that would condemn themselves. It leaves only one conclusion. It was given by divine inspiration of God.

As Valuable As Air – John Wesley
God’s command to “pray without ceasing” is founded on the necessity we have of his grace to preserve the life of God in the Soul, which can no more subsist one moment without it, than the body can without air.
