"i Have Fully Preached The Gospel"

Contributed by Kyle Campbell on Feb 9, 2022

Paul was an apostle of Christ and a minister of the gospel. As such, he “fully preached the gospel of Christ” (Romans 15:19). What does it mean to “fully preach” the gospel? There are several essentials people have to know in order for them to fully obey the gospel.

Introduction. There are people in communities all over America who visit church after church, never finding one to their liking. We immediately think that they’re only looking for fun, but the truth is they’re looking for the Bible. There are people who look for churches that are glorified country ...read more

To which generation would I like to live and minister? Would it be during the early to mid-1800s, my great-great-great granddad Col. Sameul Doak McMahan's time?

God Sends A Preacher Series

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Sep 11, 2022

Are we still waiting for the gospel, eager to hear the preaching? Do we come to church hungry for the food of the Word? To you and me it will be good news only if we realize how much we need it—how much we need the Lord every day, and every hour.

We’re about to do something very old-fashioned. It’s not often anymore that people will sit down for thirty or forty minutes, and listen to another person talking: without interruption, without visual aids, or any active engagement of the audience. But that’s what a sermon is. And so a sermon is an ...read more

How To Stand When It Is Difficult To Stand (2 Of 2)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 9, 2021

Preaching is a fascinating career. When a preacher first starts to preach, he soon begins to think he knows all about preaching. Then, after 5 or 10 years, he discovers how very little he knows about being a minister of the gospel.

What a tremendous advantage it is to have a veteran minister take him under his wings, and teach him things he needs to know. Illus: Such is the case, when Dr. Odell Belger was starting in the ministry, as a young man in his mid twenties. When he was called to a church, the church had just had a ...read more

Is Showing Emotion During The Presenting Of God’s Word Acceptable?

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 16, 2023

Just because we may have heard the word can we appropriately begin to speak? What has Christ brought you out of?

In the verse before this one, Paul wrote that he would rather die than lose his reason to preach. Now that he has made the decision to preach the Gospel, he makes it clear that he is not boasting. He believes that he has no control over whether or not he will continue to preach about how faith in ...read more
