Lady Selina Hastings, Countess of Huntington, once told John Wesley that she was saved by an “m”. Wesley wanted to know what she meant. She then quoted from 1 Corinthians 1v26: “Brothers and sisters think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth.” – “God says not many of noble birth can be saved. He did not say not any,” she replied.

Smart lady!
