"Was not another cause of it your despising that excellent help, union with a Christian society? Have you not read, "How can one be warm alone" and, "Woe be unto him that is alone when he falleth"? But you have companions enough. Perhaps more than enough; more than are helpful to your soul. But have you enough that are athirst for God, and that labour to make you so? Have you companions enough that watch over your soul, as they that must give account; and that freely and faithfully warn you, if you take any false step, or are in danger of doing so? I fear you have few of these companions, or else you would bring forth better fruit!"
- John Wesley (On God’s Vineyard)
