This is a beautiful quote from William Tyndale, the English Bible translator and martyr who was burned at the stake in 1536:
“That precious thing which must be in the heart, before a man can work any good work, is the word of God, which in the gospel preaches, proffers, and brings unto all that repent and believe, the favour of God in Christ.
Whosoever hears the word and believes it, the same is thereby righteous, and thereby is given him the Spirit of God, which leads him unto all that is the will of God; and he is loosed from the captivity and bondage of the devil, and his heart is free to love God, and desires to do the will of God.
Therefore it is called the word of life, the word of grace, the word of health, the word of redemption, the word of forgiveness, and the word of peace; he that hears it not, or believes it not, can by no means be made righteous before God.
This Peter confirms in the fifteenth of the Acts, saying that God through faith purifies the hearts. For of what nature soever the word of God is, of the same nature must the hearts be which believe thereon, and cleave thereunto.
Now is the word living, pure, righteous, and true, and even so it makes the hearts of them that believe thereon.”
