The sermon will be better if you listen as a Christian rather than as a critic. -Construction Digest
1 Corinthians 1:18, For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
I pray more people would understand the importance of being in church. Going to church has a two-fold purpose; one is to evangelize the lost and the other is to edify the believer. Both are accomplished through the preaching of God’s Word.
You might not understand why the Lord places the importance on preaching. You might not appreciate the time spent on the message. You may not even want to be there. But let me tell you this, nothing takes the place of a good ‘ole Heaven sent message form the Lord! Have you ever heard one? You’ll know if you have because it will drive you to your knees in humble thankfulness of the One Who sent it!
