Biblical Preaching

Gospel-Centered and Life-Changing

1I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: 2preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. 3For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, 4and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. 5As for you, always be sober-minded, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.

2 TIMOTHY 4:1-5 (ESV)

 
 

GOSPEL-CENTERED

Preaching Declares God’s Plan of Redemption

  • Jesus is the prophesied Messiah
  • Jesus is the divine Son of God who came to earth as a sinless man
  • Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and rose from the grave on the third day
  • Jesus ascended into heaven and now sits at the right hand of the Father as Lord of all
  • Jesus will come again to judge the earth, establish His kingdom, and reign forever
  • Those who embrace this message and repent will receive forgiveness of sin, the Holy Spirit as a pledge, and the assurance of eternal life

 

LIFE-CHANGING

Preaching Delivers God’s Truth for Transformation

12For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

HEBREWS 4:12 (ESV)
