Four alls: 1. All need to be saved 2. All can be saved 3. All can know they are saved 4. All can be saved to the uttermost

I'm an Eastern Orthodox, and I had heard from a number of individuals that Wesleyan Theology is the most similar Protestant Theology to Orthodox Theology. I'm out learning a bit about Wesleyan Theology to see if that's indeed true, and about all you said in this video could, in my perspective, be confused for Orthodoxy! It's really cool to see that!

Thank you so much for this clear summation of Methodist beliefs. I was raised Methodist (Cornish Methodist miner family) but for some unknown reason my family stopped attending church when I was a youth, and my teenage years were spent churchless. (Happily the Holy Spirit continually worked in my life until I accepted Jesus as my Saviour.)

Thank you for this video. I've always had a difficult time accepting the limited atonement and unconditional election beliefs of Reformed Theology. This is the first I've heard of the four All's. Really makes sense.

Wesley's sermon, "Free Grace" is still one of the best sermons I've ever read on the subject of God's free grace versus Calvinism' eternal exhaustive decree... It obliterates Calvinism's understanding of these things.

Daniel, thank you for taking the time to share this. God has saved me and as Wesley believed, we can live a life free from sin. Few churches preach this. Few preachers have experienced freedom from sin. Thank God for the cleansing blood of Jesus that allows this freedomin Him.

Reverend that was a very helpful short lesson. I’m currently reading the First Global Methodist transitional Book of Discipline and your commentary makes a light easy subject. God bless you, sir.

This is the true Gospel. Thank you.

Came to Christ via a Wesleyan pastor in 8/19 (RIGHT before the pandemic) and thankful to have others help clarify the nuances between denominations. Also love that you're not afraid to have your HP books on display in the background!

I loved the presentation but I just wanted to tell you I have the same record player that's behind you 🤣 But yes, the 4 All's truly show the love and grace of God.

I go to a Wesleyan church you are so spot on the theology! God bless thank you for enlightening me!

Lutherans and Methodists should be in complete fellowship. I feel the difference in complete sanctification are really minimal, because as the pastor explains, Methodists don't affirm a sort of cultish sanctification, but of a striving towards sanctification.

I was raised in the Wesleyan tradition, I very often find myself confusing my desire to live a life of service with the need to be perfect. I sometimes place blame upon Wesleyan theology for the intense self-scrutiny I have. I can currently clearly see that making mistakes is okay, and that it's my friendship with Christ that holds the water. When I forget this I miss an opportunity to be an even better friend to Jesus.

Yes! Whenever I read the Torah, I’ve always felt like it was a promise god was making to us. I feel like people think that just because WE can’t do it that it can’t be done. But Jesus said that with God all things are possible! God did not say “you must be blameless before the Lord, your God” he says “You shall be blameless” meaning that if you believe what he’s said, you will be blameless. But like you said, it’s not because of our power or strength that we fulfill the promises that God made us, but by his grace, through Jesus Christ, our savior! My biggest concern with Calvinism is that what I’ve read about it takes away all hope I have to evangelize and spread the Gospel to as many people as I possibly can. Knowing that anyone who believes can be saved gives me the hope that God can save my family and friends and coworkers, and neighbors and countrymen. I am curious how Wesleyan theology resolves Romans 9, because personally, I think that is the only leg Calvinism has to stand on, and I personally don’t understand why the Bible would say “God so loved the WORLD”, if salvation was only for a chosen few?

Very well said

Very useful to me. Thanks

Great video! Even growing up in a Wesleyan church I learned a lot from you. Thank you! The way you talk reminds me of Ted Cruz. Very engaging and compelling, thanks again.

Thanks for this video, I am a Reformed Baptist and I am researching Wesleyan Theology. I wouldn’t label myself a Calvinist but I do hold by the doctrine of election....... Thanks again!

Enlightening

Wesleyan theology is really interesting, however, the Methodist denomination has started to fall away from Wesley's teachings, and even some of the biblical standards we must hold to. Therefore, I've found the Wesleyan denomination to be much more stable and biblical than the Methodists at this point. If anyone is looking to join any Methodist churches, I recommend trying to find a Wesleyan, or at least a traditional Methodist church instead.

Hey Dan enjoying the videos, wondered if you could do a session on the books on your bookshelves behind you? I have some the same as well I can see. Bless you brother. From here in the Uk

Hello. I am a Calvinist.

Hello. Thank you for the video. Is there a book recommendation that would address the For Alls?

I actually Just did a video on this same subject matter

So if a person who believes they are entirely sanctified falls in sin. Does that mean they are no longer entirely sanctified?

People fall for this because they don’t read their Bible.

Grace must reign in you and Grace teaches you to live holy, godly lives (Titus 2:11-12). Absolute surrender, or making Jesus Christ Lord is a prerequisite of John 14:23 and Acts 5:32b. John 8:51. Luke 6:46-49. John 8:36-39. Rom 5:21; Rom 6. Rom 6:19,22. Heb 12:4,14. John 15:1-14. The “salvation” is in three tenses and most people stop at the first tense thinking it’s a done deal because they are justified by faith, but ignore sanctification and forget they have not been glorified yet to receive their immortal body after the judgment of the just and unjust. The assurance or witness Wesley teaches is the start of a lifelong walk of obedience, of abiding in the Words of Christ and His Spirit, enduring to the end. 1 Cor 16:22. We must love Christ or be accursed. To love Christ is to obey Him (John 14:15,21,23-24) and to abide (remain, continue) in Him. Rom 8:1-2,4,13.

So, what you're basically saying is that John Wesley taught that we should be Christians.

Q: If John Piper and MacArthur believe Wesleyans are quasi-heretical, yet Wesleyanism/Arminianism are not quasi-heretical but ardent evangelical or Bible-based, then what do we say of John Piper and MacArthur? False prophets, maybe?

It is easy to see a nail sticking out of the wood - and not only do you see it - you trip over it - Wesley begs the question - CAN....all these things be true? Of course they CAN. If the earth crashes into the sun - it CAN be destroyed. Couching every statement by beginning with the word "CAN" ultimately leads one to believe that anything CAN be possible. The reality is in the end God's Will trumps man's can. God's truth trumps Wesley and his follower's logical fallacy.

I have a problem with Wesley because he was really into mysticism. That's a red flag to me.

Wesley argued again Calvinism, so why even bring it up?

Calvinists are Theologically INSANE.

No one knows the Father except the Son, and those to whom He chooses to reveal Him. He has lost none of the ones the Father gave Him. All that were given to Him before the world was even created will be saved. ALL that were chosen…Stop with the “Calvinism” trigger. Just read the scriptures for yourselves. The doctrines of grace are so clearly stated.

You mean, "and others to be passed over".

"Anyone and everyone who believes in Him" which are those, by the power of the spirits work, believe. One cannot say (believe) that Christ is Lord without the Holy Spirit. You're saying the same thing that calvanists believe in Limited Atonement, just putting more emphasis on the fact that we do not, and will not know *who* those are who truly are saved or not. I guess you can call it a safety net in how you share the Gospel, but it's boils down to those who God chose before the foundations of the world, are indeed the only ones who will and *can* believe.

"ALL CAN BE SAVED!" - - - (???) ___BUT___ THE LORD JESUS SAID; "Matt. 26.28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for *"""many"""* for the remission of sins. [KJV] emphasis mine THERE IS A GRAVE DIFERENCE, EH WHAT???!!!!
