Church life. In the Journal the examples of the oneiric communion and communication with the blessed dead stood side by side with tales that closely followed the pattern found in popular stories about ghosts and spectres. As it turned out later, Mr. Mercier had been killed in an accident in the belfry where one of the swinging bells smashed his head. For some years, for instance, he tried to contact a young woman Ann who in her childhood and adolescence had been able to see the dead. After he finally met her at Colne, Lancashire, Wesley dutifully copied her narrative into his diary.

They all used to come very near the bed, and look upon me, but say nothing. This providential quality was revealed in a significant number of other dreams that usually provided knowledge of some serious and imminent threat. Cross-examined, he eventually confessed that through murdering the lady he wanted to avenge himself for severity suffered earlier from his master. Dreams about the future were not only merely predictions: they sometimes contained promises of deliverance from a troublesome situation and were followed by what could be construed as a supernatural [page 16] intervention.
The evening before he was to die, sitting and musing in her chair, she [his wife] fell fast asleep. Presently she fell asleep again, dreamed the very same dream. She started up, put on her cloak and hat, and went to that part of the wall, and among the loose stones found a key. JJW 6: The dramatic escape story was certainly to the taste of John Wesley, as it could quite easily be related to dreams and events found in the Scriptures. Furthermore, God, through his angels, could and did release men from prison, as in the case of Peter for whom the divine messenger in the dead of night opened one by one all chains and gates Acts Incidentally, the very repetition of a dream, in the popular notion, seemed to confirm its likely supernatural origin.

That is why the woman dreaming about the rescue for her husband, although she disregarded the first dream, immediately, and in such a hurry, obeyed the second one. The account was part of the conversation with five natives and their interpreter , the purpose of which was to examine their religion. The Indian version of divine providence manifested itself not only in protecting the Chicasaws against [page 17] bullets on the battlefield, of which they themselves assured their European interlocutors, but also in dreams.
The night before [our last battle with the French] — recollected one of the Indians — I dreamed I heard many drums up there; and many trumpets there, and much stamping of feet and shouting. Till then I thought we should all die. But then I thought the beloved ones [i. JJW 1: An oracular dream of that sort dreamt before a decisive battle by a warrior unsure of its outcome certainly rang a bell with the Christians, who knew parallel stories from their studies of the Old Testament. For instance, King Saul waited, in vain, for such a comforting pledge of victory before the battle with the Philistines 1 Sam.
Apart from the prophetic dreams and those giving access to the supernatural, John Wesley took interest in dreams touching the sphere of personal faith, spectacularly confirmed by cases of miraculous healing in sleep. WJW 2: ; JJW 3: Occurrence of such dreams was also interpreted as a divine blessing for the whole community to which the afflicted person belonged and, at the same time, a confirmation of its collective true Christian faith.
Immediately I waked, and from that moment have seen as well with that eye as with the other. On one occasion, in a similar case, a role in the healing was ascribed to Wesley himself. The extraordinary dream came only one day after his father — having been just told by a doctor that nothing could be done to cure his son — had requested a mutual acquaintance to inquire Mr. Wesley about his opinion and, perhaps, help. JJW 5: Although Wesley offered no comment on the incident, it was obvious that he was regarded, by the Brechin provost at least, as a man of God, whose friendly attention, advice and prayers could, thanks to the divine favour, produce a miraculous effect.
The so-called conversion dreams in which God more or less directly addressed or warned sinful humans had long been part of the Christian tradition. However, she met him after a couple of weeks, to tell him, in tears, her dream. I defy you all. I will keep to my church. One night, 7 As Origen ca. She thought she was standing in the open air, when one appeared in the clouds exceeding glorious, above the brightness of the sun.
She soon after saw a second, and then a third. One had a kind of spear in his hand; the second a besom, [page 20] wherewith he was going to sweep the earth; the third, an hour-glass, as though the time was short. This time the vivid and apocalyptic vision, as if taken out of St.
March 3rd, JJW 3: Notably, the conversion dreams mentioned above were not only calls for spiritual regeneration. They also testified to the inherent truth of Methodism confirmed by the highest possible authority, Christ himself or his angels , who in the visions unambiguously praised and defended it against its critics and enemies.
Visions that certified their way of life and faith as commendable certainly reassured and consolidated the Wesleyans. No wonder that the motif of, say, divinely inspired self-confidence appeared quite frequently in many dreams by Methodists and their sympathizers. Wesley was half-allegorically presented as a Christ-like saviour, putting all his efforts into saving sinners carelessly negligent of the terrible danger of damnation. For them he was undoubtedly a man of God, which was repeatedly proved by his organizational talents, his works, writings, 8 For early modern culturally patterned dreams that reflected their specific cultural context and were often concerned religion and the supernatural see Burke.

Although the organizers anticipated unfavourable reception, he decided he would take the floor. JJW 5: In his opinion, such dreams should then be viewed as good omens since the people were in this way persuaded to attend Methodist sermons and listen to them attentively. The dreams sent from above helped strengthen and perpetuate the Methodist movement in its initial phase. Although the concept was still an essential part of the popular attitudes to the miraculous — and in fact, it was supposed to stay there untouched for a long time — in some circles it was increasingly questioned.
Here Yang et al. Magneto-optical effects in magnets are commonly attributed to the interplay between exchange splitting and spin-orbit coupling. Here, Feng et al. Although transcription factor TF cooperativity is widespread, a global mechanistic understanding of the role of TF cooperativity is still lacking. Here the authors introduce a statistical learning framework that provides structural insight into TF cooperativity and its functional consequences based on next generation sequencing data and provide mechanistic insights into TF cooperativity and its impact on protein-phenotype interactions.
Elevated expression of ULK1 is known to be inversely correlated with breast cancer metastasis. The authors show that resistance to the antifungal 5-fluorocytosine in Cryptococcus deuterogattii is acquired more frequently in isolates with elevated mutation rate, and is associated with alterations in capsule biosynthesis and nucleotide metabolism. Immunoglobulin E IgE plays a central role in allergic responses, yet therapeutic targeting of IgE with antibodies such as omalizumab is met with various limitations.
Here the authors characterize the molecular properties and crystal structure of a new anti-IgE antibody, ligelizumab, for mechanistic insights related to its enhanced suppression activity.

Mobile group II introns function as ribozymes to splice and reinsert themselves into DNA, thereby colonizing new genomic regions. Here the authors use single-molecule FRET and molecular dynamics simulations to reveal a structural link between metal ion induced kinetic heterogeneity and the sugar puckers at the exon-intron binding interface. Numerous micro- and macro-scale factors influence soil microbial diversity.
Here the authors create a model to demonstrate that fine scale soil moisture influences the carrying capacity of microbes, which then scales up to larger biogeographic patterns. Acetylcholine regulates intestinal epithelial secretion via muscarinic Gq-coupled receptors but its role in cell differentiation is unclear. Here, the authors show that Prox1-positive endocrine cells are sensors for the cholinergic intestinal niche and can trigger increased differentiation of enteroendocrine DCLK1-positive tuft cells.
