***Is this a trick question? ***

No tricks - and no offense meant. Please don't take my questions as argumentative in nature.


***"No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him...." ***

Granted. And He uses His chosen vessels to do so. So if He used Wesley to bring many tens of thousands of souls to Himself (which He most assuredly did) then we may be assured that God was not so displeased with Wesley's theology as to disqualify him from service. History shows he was a vessel fit for the Master's use.


***Besides, you can't gloss over the wicked things a man does in his life ***

Wicked things??? Wesley was a model of holiness with regards to his lifestyle. I think his personal standard of holiness would sober both of us.

I didn't dispute that.

Wesley did some regrettable things and treated some of his brethren in a way that I'm certain he has long since apologized to them for his treatment of them.

In the service of the Lord,
Christian.
