However, I have found an additional blessing in reconsidering Wesley’s sermons. I am finding myself challenged to read and understand the Scriptures in ways I had not considered before. For instance, I have often read Jesus as a wisdom teacher who placed ideals before us to which we should strive. Wesley, on the other hand, as will be clear in the sermon today, read Jesus not as an idealist but as One who reveals the will of God to us.
Consequently, Wesley read every teaching of Jesus as a revelation of the will of God—almost as a new law by which we should govern our lives. I think this is a perspective sorely lacking in our day, and I have found it refreshing to listen to someone who read and responded to Jesus in this way. J. Thomas Johnson
