Scripture: Ephesians 2:8-10
Wesley Sermon: The Scripture Way of Salvation
At the heart of Wesleyan belief is prevenient grace. Prevenient grace is that God loves us first, that God pursues us. God’s loving us first is evidenced in the words of Ephesians 2:8, “it is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God”. John Wesley was raised in a religious home with parents who influenced his understanding of God. Wesley’s early life experiences, education, in addition to his family experiences informed his understanding of who God is. God’s preventing grace was at work within Wesley throughout his early life, just as with each of us. God pursues us. We point to Wesley because Wesley points to Jesus.
