wesley moment

The Wesley Covenant:
It is agreed by us whose names are underwritten to:
First,
that we will not listen or willingly inquire after any ill concerning each other;
Secondly,
that if we do hear any ill of each other, we will not be forward to believe it;
Thirdly,
that as soon as possible we will communicate what we hear
by speaking or writing to the person concerned;
Fourthly,
that until we have done this,
we will not write or speak a syllable of it to any person whatsoever;
Fifthly,
that neither will we mention it, after we have done this, to any other person;
Sixly,
that we will not make any exception to any of these rules,
unless we think ourselves absolutely obliged to do so.
