Summary "The Works of the Rev. John Wesley, Vol. 03 (of 32)" by John Wesley is a collection of sermons and religious discourses written in the 18th century. The volume specifically includes Wesley's reflections on biblical texts and his teachings on Christian living, focusing on themes such as the nature of sin, the importance of personal faith, and the pursuit of holiness. This work is part of a larger series that spans Wesley's extensive writings, offering insights into his theological framework and the early Methodist movement. The opening of this volume presents the first sermon based on the Gospel of Matthew, specifically the Sermon on the Mount. It emphasizes the necessity for individuals to enter through the "strait gate" to achieve eternal life, contrasting this narrow pathway with the broad road that leads to destruction. Wesley cautions against the dangers posed by external influences, such as false prophets and societal pressures, that might divert believers from the true path of righteousness. Through vivid imagery and earnest exhortation, he challenges readers to reflect on their spiritual journey, urging them to strive earnestly for a life aligned with divine principles and genuine faith.
