Bible Note: John Wesley did a great work for God among the miners of Cornwall. Whole villages were transformed from gambling, swearing, and Sabbath-breaking people to men and women of sobriety and godliness. In every home was to be found a picture of John Wesley, the man whom they all loved. One day, a stranger visiting one of these humble homes, seeing John Wesley’s picture on the wall, said, “Whose picture is that?†The old miner reverently lifted his hat, and said, “There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.†“The Word of God [concerning the attainment through Christ of salvation in the kingdom of God] came to John son of Zachariah in the wilderness (desert). And he went into all the country round about the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance (of hearty amending of their ways, with abhorrence of past wrongdoing) unto forgiveness of sin, crying, Prepare the way of the Lord†(Luke 3:2 – 4).
