1 | How do we preach the Gospel? | 1 John 2:2 | GeorJoy | 100648 | ||
Ed, your thoughts and frustration are mine... When I go to church today and look on the pulpit and surrounding area, the first word that comes to mind is "performance." There is rarely if ever an "altar call." I am constantly searching for a church that does more than just "feed the flock." If only the flock were as fat Spiritually as "we" are physically!!! Our Lord didn't come for the sake of the saved. He came for the sake of the sinner. Once again, what you have written has already been written. In Christ George |

2 | How do we preach the Gospel? | 1 John 2:2 | DAIRYLEADER5 | 100654 | ||
Hi Georjoy, Ive looked at this thread and want to add my thoughts, As a preacher and evangelist, I learned a long time ago that preachers dont preach, the Holy Ghost uses ministers as a mouth piece to deliver the message. My self, after prayer, the spirit gives me what to read from the Bible and then after I read the verses to the congregation, I wait on the Spirit to take over. The Apostile Paul says it best, I know nothing except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. Thats how we preach. No man preaches unless hes called.And I agree with you there are not enought preachers, preaching salvation,we hafe to go after the lost. My thoughts. DL5 | ||||||

I am not a preacher or teacher. I hope to be a teacher in a bible college when I receive my degree at this late point in life. I am still in the process of perfecting my calling, whatever it may be, but you have just described what often happens to me. I had never been able to put it into words. What has happened this very day on this very forum. The Spirit has, and does regularly show me answers to questions that I have yet to formulate. The Spirit showed me through my studies that though people generally don’t like it, I am an exhorter, and that (though I was beginning to believe that it was a curse,) this is one of the gifts of the spirit. I know that there are many rough edges left on this stone, but that one day they will all be smoothed out, and that one day I will be placed in the church where Jesus is truly the foundation. Exhorting In Christ George |

Thank you dear brother. I am trying to be patient and prepair. This old sponge got hard through the years. Now the living water has softened it, and I so despirately need to spread that water. Patience is not one of my greater virtues, but time will tell. Through the Spirit, I have learned so much in so little time. Primarily, I have learned to listen. I just don't want (not to hear) when that call is made. In Christ George |

Hi george, the scripture tells us to add patience to our faith ect., I know that was one thing I ask God for a long time ago and recieved it. There was a price I had to pay but it was worth it. Some one will probably take that statement wrong but thats ok. As far as age dont let your age stop you from fulfilling your hearts desires, I dont, we old horses will die when its time not before. Write me anytime if nothing but to talk at Dairyleader52000@yahoo.com. Im around somewhere. DL5 | ||||||
