HONORING
JOHN WESLEY
•
The t'nitstl Church of Canada has
been pitying tribute to the memory
and work of John Wesley, Three
hundred years ago he did his work.
The word 'amazing+ is used when
:.:00' of the commentators tell of
his work and the word is quite
right. How closely statistics were
kept by John Wesley himself we do
no know, but the claim is that In
»50 years he travelled 250,000 miles,
m=at of it on horesback; he Pre'ach-
ed about 42.000 sermons.. ;His fol-
lowers numbered 100,000 and most
01 them came from the ranks of the
1(0(11• 31110 folk who were unlearned.
Religion was at. a 10w' ebb when
John Wesley stated his work, He
came into prominence to do some-
thing' which no other person seemed
capable of doing or Inclined to
bother touch about. What's. more,
l\',siey was an organizing genius,
2111 instead of having his converts
spend time In argument he turned
their attention to the need of testi-
na.;uy, Ile relied much on having
his folk tell others, of what they
had round in them' new 3luith and
that i:' why 111s wort spread,
Ws have healed both ministers
and laymen express the belief that
John Wesley could not have clone

arguments are based on the cnn3en.
