John Wesley

John Wesley – was an English cleric and theologian who, with his brother Charles and fellow cleric George Whitefield, founded Methodism.  In June 1720, Wesley entered Christ ChurchOxford. In 1724, he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts.  For all of his outward piety, Wesley sought to cultivate his inner holiness or at least his sincerity as evidence of being a true Christian.  In 1738, at a Moravian meeting in Aldersgate Street, London, in which he heard a reading of Martin Luther‘s preface to the Epistle to the Romans, it revolutionized the character and method of his ministry.
