I am a spirit come from God, and returning to God: just hovering over the great gulf; till, a few moments hence, I am no more seen; I drop into an unchangeable eternity!
I want to know one thing-the way to heaven; how to land safe on that happy shore. God himself has condescended to teach me the way. For this very end He came from heaven.
He hath written it down in a book. O give me that book! At any price, give me the book of God! I have it: here is knowledge enough for me. Let me be a man of one book.
John Wesley, in the preface to his sermons
