    Fully Preaching The Gospel

    Uploaded by

    John Baw
    The document discusses how to effectively preach the gospel message. It argues that preaching means simply conveying the message as a herald would, without pressure or force. A good presenter of the gospel message should be personable, trustworthy, think on their feet, care about their community, and work as part of a team. Preaching the gospel is worth doing, even if done imperfectly, through actions, signs, and relying on the power of the Holy Spirit rather than one's own abilities alone.

    Fully preaching the Gospel

    Living Waters Church Talk


    10/03/13

    Mark 16:15-18 Mark's version of the Great Commission Preach (Announce) the Good News to every creature! Does NOT say: Bible-bash; hound people, etc. These are modern interpretations of what preaching means. The ancient concept of preaching Gk. Karusso - concept of HERALD HERALD: An official messenger of news. CNN / Sky News presenters They don't ask you to believe anything There's no pressure to decide anything or form an opinion on anything. They just CONVEY the Message / News And then they leave you alone! Q UNKNOWN: God opens millions of flowers without forcing the buds. It reminds us not to force anything, for things happen in the right time WHAT MAKES A GOOD NEWS PRESENTER? Research internet: 1. Need to be PERSONABLE / APPROACHABLE Some Christians are AVOIDABLE!!! Be NICE people! 2. Need to be TRUSTWORTHY/BELIEVABLE Integrity

    Psalm 25:21: Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee Heb. TOM completeness / innocence / simplicity 3. Thinking on your feet. Speaking off-the-cuff during breaking story No scripts Christian scripts? Canned answers?

    TWITTER: I'm a recovering evangelical; I want to recover what was lost when salvation got small enough to fit on tracts we hand to strangers.

    Can we SIMPLY have conversations? S 1 Peter 3:15: But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect 4. Caring about your Community. Not insular / Isolationist Recent Guardian article about Hutterite Anabaptist Christians (Like Amish) escaping the World and its evil influences. Different to Jesus' model? 5. Being a team player No lone rangers! Dozens of people / work behind the face

    DOING A GOOD JOB OF IT S Romans 15:18,19: For I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me to win obedience from the Gentiles, by word and deed, 19 by the power of signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God, so that from Jerusalem and as far around as Illyricum I have fully proclaimed the good news of Christ. FULLY PREACHING the Gospel! Means we can PARTIALLY preach? Preach INCOMPLETELY? Q GK CHESTERTON: If something is worth doing, its worth doing badly. Sharing the good news IS WORTH DOING BADLY Bible reading / Prayer / Serving others Worth doing badly. Paul talking about winning obedience from people: Accomplished through me Nothing like reality / experience By word 1 Pet 3:15 S Proverbs 18:21: Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits By deed Q ST. FRANCIS OF ASSISSI (?): preach the gospel always; and if necessary, use words By the power of signs and wonders. Mark 16:20 S 1 Cor 4:20: For the kingdom of God is not in word but in power.

    By the Power of the HOLY SPIRIT S Zechariah 4:6: Not by might nor by power, BUT BY MY SPIRIT,' says the LORD Almighty. St. Paul MOVED/TRAVELLED a lot!!!!!
