“By nature ye are wholly corrupted; by grace ye shall be wholly renewed . . . . Now ‘go on’ ‘from faith to faith,’ until your whole sickness be healed, and all that ‘mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus’!”
Scott J Jones, Scripture and the Wesleyan Way: A Bible Study on Real Christianity

“For United Methodist doctrine the loving spirit that is the goal of Christian doctrine ought to inform all of the practices related to it. It ought to be the rule that guides the thinking, speaking, discerning, listening, and discussing doctrine. Catholic spirit does not mean indifference even in matters of opinion. It does mean teaching and learning the faith in love.”
Scott J. Jones, United Methodist Doctrine: The Extreme Center

“Evangelism is related to church growth, related but in no way synonymous. In speaking of evangelism, one must speak of church growth, but only at the end of the dramatic process, and not any sooner. Evangelism is never aimed at institutional enhancement or aggrandizement. It is aimed simply and solely at summoning people to new, liberated obedience to the true governor of all created reality. . . . “Church growth” misserves evangelism, however, when the church is allied with consumerism, for then the church talks people out of the very obedience to which the news summons us.25”
Scott J. Jones, The Evangelistic Love of God & Neighbor: A Theology of Witness & Discipleship
