Preaching (262)
  1. There is absence in that all we have is an empty tomb, but presence because, while the tomb is empty, Christ is alive with a gloriously transformed body and with us!
  2. Jesus is coronated on the Cross. It would be from Golgotha where Jesus will reign over the kingdoms of the earth.
  3. The fact of Jesus being the greatest of all priests in the greatest of all orders of priesthood, means He is the consummate pastor for those in need of a powerful and availing shepherd.
  4. Preaching the inseparability of Jesus and Jerusalem is to proclaim God’s Messiah and the fulfillment of the Scriptures.
  5. The Gospel is so clear, so simple, so pure in these verses that it is well worth heralding as is, without comment.
  6. Christianity is not principally about ethics. It was the Cross on the Hill rather than the Sermon on the Mount which produced the impact of Christianity on the world.
  7. God's is the greatest love expressed through the greatest risk, the only and ultimate sacrifice of God for a love that will endure forever.
  8. While God may and does test one’s faith and life, yet He does not tempt with sin. He does not allure and entice toward ungodliness.
  9. Whatever happened to things not liked? Can there be such a thing anymore? Does the desire to have a sermon “liked” factor into the craft of preaching?
  10. Boldness means a lack of fear from cancel-culture and a disregard for worldly retribution. Boldly preach! Christ has overcome the world.
  11. Woe to Paul if he did not because he would be missing out on the love of Christ and, by extension, love for his fellow man.
  12. This Spirit of love permits no Christian to exercise their freedom at the expense of another Christian still troubled by old associations.
