This On the Way podcast is studying The Great Controversy, with the theme of Faith Against All Odds and today's topic being Obedience: The Fruit of Faith. John Wesley, a prominent Evangelist and leader of the Methodist church, was drawn to Christ after hearing Luther's introduction to Romans. Paul in Romans argues that a man is justified by faith, not by works, and that there is no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus.
The Bible speaks of growth in Christ through knowledge of the word of God, as the Christian life is a life of growth in Christ. The Reformers systematically studied the Word to discover more truth, not content with the status quo or rigid religious experiences. Many Bible-believing Christians in the Middle Ages paid a high price for their commitment, including torture, imprisonment, exile, and execution.
Despite their imprisonment, they were free in Christ, free in the truths of His Word, and free in the hope of His soon return. Before the cross, sinners saw their unlikeness of character to Christ. The purity and holiness of Jesus' life as presented from the Word of God possess more power to reform and transform the character than all efforts put forth in picturing sins and crimes of men and the sure results.
