Glory of our Triune God #12: Worship (pt 4)
Series The Glory of Our Triune God
Introduction:
Preaching is the Spirit-empowered proclamation of God’s salvation in Jesus Christ
I. The Father & Preaching
Now to Him who is able to strengthen you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery that was kept secret for long ages but has now been disclosed and through the prophetic writings has been made known to all nations, according to the command of the eternal God, to bring about the obedience of faith—to the only wise God be glory forevermore through Jesus Christ! Amen. (Rom. 16:25–27)
II. The Son & Preaching
III. The Holy Spirit & Preaching (cf. Jn. 3:3)
Conclusion:
Preaching and the Preacher and You
“We must never show a reverence to ecclesiastical dignitaries which is due to God alone. Preachers are especially exposed to the danger of flattery. I fear that the whole frame of mind in which some Christian people go to church is wrong. They do not go to worship God or to hear God’s Word. They go to hear a man. So it is not the message to which they listen, but the oratory.” —John Stott
• The Preacher
• The Congregation
Look at your own heart and repent, look past the preacher and don’t be so judgmental, and look to Jesus who is the subject of the message that God is bringing to you by the aid and power of the Spirit.
