Quote of the Week – Al Mohler on Liberalism and Hell

No Comments

The lesson of theological liberalism is clear—embarrassment is the gateway drug for theological accommodation and denial.

Be sure of this: it will not stop with the air conditioning of hell.

Sermon Poetry – “We’re Preaching the Scriptures” Preacher – Fred Malone The preaching of God is stupidity to all the world and the people therein A message proclaimed to a people in need, to a people all rotting in sin It’s Grace of our God that He’s given to us all a message by which we are saved We’re preaching our Savior, we’re preaching a Cross, we’re preaching the study of God We’re preaching the whole of the Scriptures to sinners, the counsel of God as revealed We’re teaching of Jesus, our Crucified Savior, the Son who the Father has sent We’re preaching the Gospel, that Good Revelation, so sinners might glory in Christ We’re preaching the Gospel, that Kind Revelation, so Christians might comfort in Christ We’re sinners forgiven, our sins washed by Jesus, we’re living to glorify Him We’re telling a message to worshipping sinners, that outside of Christ they are lost But thanks to the Father, our Crucified Savior was sent to so that sinners might live This news we are preaching, through all of the Scriptures, theology of God above

A Proposed Form of Preaching

1.)  Preach Meaning of the Text 2.)  Summarize Theological Core Idea 3.)  Expound and Prove this Idea
  1. Via analogy of Scripture
  2. Show how this idea fits with the character of God, salvation, redemption, etc.
  3. This allows our hearers to see how this passage and its applications stem from your salvation
4.)  Apply this idea considering your hearer’s spiritual state (among other criteria)
