John Wesley was an 18th-century preacher and a cofounder of Methodism. In his stirring sermon “Of Hell”, Wesley dives into the theology of eternal punishment for unbelievers.

In this ambitious 18th-century sermon, Methodist theologian John Wesley covers faith of all types in a way that hadn’t been done before. He discusses the faith of everyone from heathens to deists to Protestants, drawing conclusions about each kind.
