from John Wesley's JOURNAL (19 October 1739 entry)
"At four I preached at the Shire Hall of Cardiff again, where many gentry, I found, were present. Such freedom of speech I have seldom had, as was given me in explaining those words: 'The kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost (Romans 14:17 KJV).' At six almost the whole town (I was informed) came together; to whom I explained the six last beatitudes; but my heart was so enlarged, I knew not how to give over, so that we continued three hours."
