Have you made any resolutions this past week? Normally, our resolutions cover a wide spectrum of things. My intentions are to offers some reflection upon a specified area where resolution may be needed. My chosen topic is the family.
This time of year reminds us of the advent of Jesus into this world. Yes, God manifest in the flesh. It is my objective to discuss His incarnation.
It is my objective to concern ourselves with the coming of Christ to the Earth. Let us recognize that His coming was not by accident, nor an event concealed from mankind, rather, the purpose of God as shown by prophecy.
It is my desire to give a simple presentation of the Gospel. My prayer is that the unbeliever would hear and respond. I also desire that those of us who are saved would be reminded of what God did to secure our salvation and of the importance of God's grace.
Beyond a shadow of a doubt you have offended others and you have been offended. Your relationships have been tested. It is my objective to consider a classic portion of Scripture and glean some valuable lessons regarding the restoration of damaged or broken relationships.
At this time of year we are reminded to give thanks. It is my objective to remind you that graciousness and gratitude are virtues which are becoming to the Christian profession.
Here we find a universal declarative statement. My objective is to demonstrate that whether you are a Christian or a lost sinner, it is futile to be in opposition to God.
What should be my objective in preaching? This is my topic of discussion today. I will share, what I believe God says, about the preaching ministry.
Last week I dealt with the context. It is now my objective to hone in on the text and unveil the support for the promised gospel which is offered within.
We live in a pluralistic and politically correct society. Further, too many churches are inclusive. I believe it is our obligation to be part of the exclusive ranks. There is only one God. There is only one way to God; that way is the gospel of God. There is only one truth of faith and salvation. It is singular. It is exclusive. It is good news!
