Pastoral Sharings June 2019
We all are one in mission
1 I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of the calling to
which you have been called, 2with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, 3making every effort to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the
bond of peace. 4There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the one hope of your calling, 5one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6one God and Father of all,
who is above all and through all and in all. 7But each of us was given grace according to the measure of Christ’s gift. Ephesians 4:1-7
I think this is the most research I have done for a newsletter article. But there is a purpose be-
hind this intentional and intensive inquiring. What I have found in my study is that we, Method-ists and Lutheran (I guess I already knew this), are cut from the same Reformation cloth. This
month I want to share excerpts of a piece written by The Rev. Dan Bell1, a United Methodist elder, who has done a beautiful job encapsulating the connection and the distinction
between the Lutheran Church [e.g. ELCA] and United Methodist Church, and in the process, re-minds us of the current history shared by both.
This is rather long (you June want to read it in two or three sittings), but I found it necessary as
we begin our conversation.
The Reformation and the Wesleys: A complex relationship On All Saints Eve in 1517, Martin Luther nailed his "95 Theses" calling for the reform of the church
to the Castle Church door in Wittenberg, Germany. This moment traditionally marks the beginning of the
Reformation and the birth of the Protestant churches. In the decades that followed, John Calvin led a move-
ment that would give rise to Presbyterian churches and Huldrych (Ulrich) Zwingli gave rise to what would
become the Baptist tradition.
How did the thinking that led to the Reformation and the theologies that developed in its wake affect
the Wesleys and the rise of Methodism? What should United Methodists celebrate as the 500th anniversary
of the birth of the Reformation approaches?
Methodism and the Reformation The Reformation's impact on England was complex…The Wesleys also had a complex relationship
to the theologies of the Reformation.
*********************************************
1 The Rev. Dan Bell is a United Methodist elder and member of the Florida Conference, now living in Salt Lake City,
Utah. Previously he served as a professor of theology and ethics at Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary in Columbia, South Carolina.
3
On one hand, they were firm heirs of the Reformation. The Wesleys shared the Reformation's com-
mitment to Scripture and to the priesthood of all believers. John Wesley's famous Aldersgate experience2 [I
have footnoted this event below for my Lutheran flock] of the warm heart happened as he heard Martin Lu-
ther's "Preface to the Epistle to the Romans" being read.
John [had] high praise for Luther's insight on the centrality of justification by grace through faith,
which is the theological cornerstone of the Reformation. About Luther he declares, "Who has wrote more
ably than Martin Luther on justification by faith alone?"
On the other hand, the Wesleys and the Methodist movement embodied a kind of counter-
Reformation or, perhaps more charitably, a reformation of the Reformation. If at its theological core the
Reformation was about reasserting or clarifying the centrality of justification by faith alone, we might say
that Wesley and the Methodists embodied a challenge, a corrective.
It was John's contention that the Reformation, while rightly lifting up justification by grace, erred
by downplaying or ignoring sanctification, that is God's gift of healing sinners by making saints who lived
holy lives
Recently some Finnish Lutheran scholars, among others, have shown that Luther had a robust sense of
sanctification that seems to have been lost by some of his heirs. However, setting aside whether John Wes-
ley offers a fair appraisal of Luther, we can see how the early Methodist movement embodies a complex
relationship to the Reformation. It is indeed a kind of counter-Reformation [I would call it a Reformed-
Reformation] as it basically encouraged the Reformation not to discard " Romish" insights on sanctification
and holy living.
Methodism among the denominations
The complex relationship between Methodism and the Reformation does not end with Methodism's mis-
sion of reminding the whole church that the gracious gift of salvation entails both justification/pardon and
sanctification/healing. It extends further to the point of questioning the validity of denominations
Even as he appreciated the Reformation and was deeply committed to the gospel truth of justification by
grace through faith, John Wesley abhorred schism, divisions in the church.
"The pretenses for separation June be innumerable, but want of love is always the real cause." This failure
to love creates a grave problem for the church's efforts at evangelism. It is a counter-witness to the Gospel
that gives non-believers grounds for rejecting the faith. Our failure actually to love one another amidst the
often-difficult changes of life belies all our sermons and exhortations about God's loving us.
Wesley would utterly despise a denomination that had lost its roots in the mission of reformation and had
become instead little more than the religious analog of a corporate brand. We might do well to recall and
reflect upon Albert Outler's [a 20th-century American Methodist theologian and philoso-
pher] lament about maintenance becoming the mission of the church, modified perhaps to reflect current
realities and pressures as "survival become the mission of the church."
2Aldersgate Day is celebrated on June 24 (or the Sunday closest) to commemorate the day in 1738 when John Wesley experienced
assurance of his salvation. Wesley reluctantly attended a group meeting that evening on Aldersgate Street in London. As he heard a reading from Luther's Preface to the Epistle to the Romans, he felt his "heart strangely warmed." Wesley wrote in his journal that at about 8:45 p.m. "while he was describing the change which God works in the heart through faith in Christ, I felt my heart strangely warmed. I felt I did trust in Christ, Christ alone for salvation; and an assurance was given me that He had taken away my sins, even mine, and saved me from the law of sin and death."
4
What should we celebrate?
Without question, Methodism is a proud child of the Reformation, deeply committed to the gospel of justifi-
cation freely offered by God in Christ. Yet, even as Methodism claims its rightful place in the Reformation
procession, it recognizes its providential mission to continue the reformation.
Perhaps the first way United Methodists and others in the Wesleyan family celebrate the Reformation is by
recalling their reforming mission —to remind the whole church of God's salvific gift, not only of justification
or the pardon of sin but also of healing from the corrupting power of sin, of the sanctification that reforms
sinners and enables holy living.
Wesley was fond of encouraging his followers to "provoke one another to love and to good
works." (Hebrews 10:24)
[We (both United Methodists and Lutherans) should] celebrate the Reformation first and foremost by living
reformed lives, that is, living lives that reflect the power of God not only to pardon sinners but to sanctify
them as well, forming holy tempers and holy lives. We celebrate the Reformation best by fulfilling our provi-
dential mission of provoking one another to love and good works.
Celebration of the Reformation provides a wonderful occasion for us to revisit, or perhaps visit for the first
time, the relationships we have with other denominations. Some of those are found in formal full communion
agreements, such as we have with the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, the northern and southern
provinces of the Moravian Church and the Uniting Church of Sweden. Others are informal, growing from a
host of relationships established in local communities through shared worship experiences and works of mer-
cy. Just as God raised us up so that others might learn of the glorious gift of sanctification, there is much we
can learn from our Anglican, Lutheran and Catholic sisters and brothers, among others.
To celebrate the Reformation as Lutherans and United Methodists is to celebrate the God who refuses to ac-
cept the separation, the division, the conflict that sin occasions. It is to celebrate the God who does not just
pardon sinners but who also sanctifies — breaking down dividing walls, overcoming hostility, healing the
brokenness that is sin by making sinners saints and enemies friends in Christ's one, holy, catholic body,
which is the Church.
So, why do I present this piece? First, I am to begin pastoral care of Fairfax United
Methodist Church June 30th. Second, we need to understand our historical connection
through the Reformation (it isn’t just a Lutheran thing); third, it is also good for us to understand our differences; fourth, I agree with John Wesley (and I think Martin Lu-
ther would agree) that division in the Body of Christ, the Church, is counter-productive to proclamation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ; fifth, we have much to learn
from each other.
5
There are two pieces that rise to the surface as I read this article,
#1 Luther’s explanation of the Third article in relation to sanctification:
I believe that by my own understanding or strength I cannot believe in Jesus Christ my Lord or come to
him, but instead the Holy Spirit has called me through the gospel, enlightened me with his gifts, made me
holy and kept me in the true faith, just as he calls, gathers, enlightens, and makes holy the whole Chris-
tian church on earth and keeps it with Jesus Christ in the one common, true faith. Daily in this Christian
church the Holy Spirit abundantly forgives all sins—mine and those of all believers. On the last day the
Holy Spirit will raise me and all the dead and will give to me and all believers in Christ eternal life. This
is most certainly true.

God calls us to good works for the sake of the neighbor, not for the purpose of sanctification, but on account of our sanctification we do good to others. The
two are interconnected.
#2 “The church must always be reformed,” popularized by Karl Barth, of the Reformed Church, in 1947, allegedly deriving from a saying of St. Augustine, a Roman African, early Christian theologian of the 4th/5th Century. This is not a
new concept, but a philosophy for a millennium and a half.
Back to the scripture text at the beginning. “…one body and one Spirit…one hope of your calling, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6one God and Father of all…each of us was given grace according to the measure of Christ’s gift.
To me, what that says is we are already one body in Christ (Romans 12:5). Division is not God’s plan, but our undoing. Together we believe the message of
the cross (1 Corinthians 1:18), that is the gospel message, which “Is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes.” That is where we start, and that is our end,
June the Spirit of Pentecost fill you with all hope.

Thanks to the Packers who recently finished the Pack the Back sea-
son for the children of GFW and surround schools.
This is a feel good project with all the decision making done by the
able program leader, Betsy Hennen.
Our Savior’s did the packing in December and March, which takes
about an hour of time, plus driving time to Olivia (so about 2 hours per week times 2
months—16 hours). Can you give 16 hours next school year to enable about 200
children to have better weekend diets? This is really a feel good project. Thanks to the
Methodist members who pick up the filled bags and delivery them to GFW schools.
This is also an excellent Thrivent project. One $250 card provides food for 2 addition
GFW students for the school year. Wanna help? Contact our church office.
