The Resurrection of the Promise

En savoir plus sur le livre

John Wesley lived during the Revolutionary War, opposing the Church of England's theology while the Colonies fought for independence. The Church taught salvation at conversion through "Grace Alone," a doctrine that persists in many American churches and Evangelical seminaries today. Wesley criticized this belief as a "perilous, heretical doctrine" leading to moral decay and lawlessness, viewing it as a theology of entitlement. This entitlement is echoed in both government and churches, where liberals promise utopia through government power and Christians offer instant salvation at death. Historically, socialism (Marxism) has resulted in despair and poverty, and we now see a decline into spiritual poverty in our churches. Wesley argued that salvation requires grace, faith, and good works, each dependent on the other. Without the genuine faith and service of the First Century Church, it is impossible to please God and attain the promise of eternal life at Christ's return. While world leaders advocate for a "Great Reset," 2000 years ago, God offered the "Blessed Hope" of paradise through Jesus' resurrection.
