| Summary: | John Wesley defined the gospel', discussed its meaning and consequences, and gave instructions for preaching the gospel during the period 1746-51. These thoughts were articulated alongside a synchronization of concepts, including the reign of God in the heart, the Kingdom of God, the new covenant, and gospel's relationship to law. Wesley's definition of the gospel was presented within an evangelical conversation that was, at the same time, both an effort to maintain unity as co-labourers in a shared movement and a controversial discussion. Wesley portrayed his definition of the gospel as a contrasting understanding to others within that evangelical identity. |
