Episode Synopsis

The second part of the fourth homily, written by Thomas Cranmer, on true faith. In this part of the homily, Cranmer lays out the relationship between, faith, love, and good works - that true, saving faith always expresses itself in good works and transformed living. He also shows how the faith of the Old Testament believers stands in continuity with our faith as New Testament believers, although they looked forward to the days of Christ, and we live in the days when Christ has come.
