11. John Wesley’s Mother’s Letter… What’s Sin?
Whatever weakens your reason,
Whatever increases the authority of your body over your mind,
Whatever impairs the tenderness of your conscience,
Whatever takes away your relish for things spiritual,
Whatever obscures your sense of God,
That is sin to you, no matter how innocent it may seem in itself.

“there is joy in the presence of the angels of
God over one sinner who repents”
