Thank you for listening to PROCLAIM! -- the podcast that teaches every Bible-believing Christian how to preach the Gospel by any means necessary in many different settings, including using the internet and the new "podcast pulpit". If you are a Christian, you should be preaching the Gospel and the Word of God in some way, shape, form, or fashion because Jesus Christ said, "Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel." In the New Testament, the word "preach" simply means "to herald or proclaim" the good news of the Gospel, and the purpose of this podcast is to show you how you can get started doing it, or help you do it better for God’s glory and for the salvation of lost souls.
Our Scripture verse on preaching is Mark 16:15 which reads: "And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature."
Our quote on preaching today is from John Wesley. He said, "Give me one hundred preachers who fear nothing but sin and desire nothing but God; such alone will shake the gates of hell."
In this podcast, we are using as our texts, the following three books: "Lectures to My Students" by Charles H. Spurgeon; "The Preacher and his Preaching" by Alfred P. Gibbs; and "Biblical Preaching" by Haddon W. Robinson. And, I want to remind you to take advantage of our special offer.
Our first topic is titled "The Minister’s Self-Watch, Part 1" from "Lectures to My Students" by Charles H. Spurgeon.
Our second topic is titled "The Qualifications of the Preacher, Part 1" from "The Preacher and his Preaching" by Alfred P. Gibbs.
Our third topic is titled "The Devaluation of Preaching" from "Biblical Preaching" by Haddon W. Robinson.
