Hmm.. this is a powerful statement by Susanna Wesley, the mother of John and Charles Wesley. In case they are escaping your memory, they are some of the founders of the Great Awakening, next to Jonathan Edwards and George Whitfield.

What Counts as Sin?
"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 and power of the flesh over the Spirit, then that to you becomes sin, however good it is in itself."

Nice quote. I need to save that one.
ReplyDeleteRegarding the classics, is Darwin's Origin of Species on the list? Just curious. Sid found it online and read it a few months ago. I read it in high school but need to refresh my memory.
Hope your doing well.
