There were three men in history that we
tackled today, John Wycliffe, Alexander III and Martin Luther.
Although they were born in different places and times, they made a
huge impact in our Christianity today.
We are blessed with God's word and we
share in the bounty of what's in it through reading, hearing God's
Word from a preacher or from a song but none of these things will
have ever happened if not because of the great contribution of John
Wycliffe. We owe him thanks for having that passion by bringing
scripture into people's own language.
Alexander the Third was known for being
the church's chief jurist. His enemies regarded him as great because
of his genius mind when it comes to political matters. He was just so
natural in his decision making.
Who would have ever forget the
contributions of the Father of Reformation, Martin Luther. His search
for truth and his loyalty to the Scripture itself paved a way for him
to really find out the truth of the Scripture.
We can learn a lot of lessons from
these three men in history. We can learn to be compassionate and seek
for the welfare of others, to settle arguments and conflicts in a
wise way, and to seek for the truth in the midst of lies and to feel
that holy discontentment because you know in the deepest of your heart
that there is more than this. May we imitate the good things they
have made and learn from their life as we serve the Lord.
