PREACHING and PREACHERS - Glory of Preaching | 傳道與傳道人 - 榮耀 |
Effective preaching is the dynamic release of a
divine word that has gripped the heart and mind of the preacher. 有果效的講道是大有能力的釋放出抓緊傳道人心靈與意念的上帝話語。 |
Every time the gospel is
preached it is as if God himself came in person solemnly to summon us. John Calvin 在每一次福音被傳講的時候,就像是上帝親自莊嚴的召聚我們。 |
Preaching is the public exposition of Scripture by
the man sent from God, in which God himself is present in judgement and in grace. John Calvin 講道就是在公眾場合藉著上帝差派的人解釋聖經經文,在信息中上帝在審判及恩典中臨到眾人。 |
The gift of the ministry is
the fruit of Christ's ascension. Matthew Henry 傳道的恩賜是基督升天的果實。 |
To me, the work of preaching is the highest and the
greatest and the most glorious calling to which anyone can be called. D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones 對我而言,傳道的工夫是任何一位蒙召的人所能獲得的至高、偉大及最榮耀的呼召。 |
The highest worship of God
is the preaching of the Word; because thereby are praised and celebrated the name and the
benefits of Christ. Martin Luther 傳講上帝的話語是對上帝至高無上的敬拜;因為藉著這樣的敬拜,基督的名字及恩典得到讚美與慶祝。 |
Preaching is a manifestation of the incarnate Word,
from the written Word, by the spoken word. Bernard Manning 講道是上帝話語道成肉身的彰顯,是出自寫成的話語並藉著說出的話語而成就的。 |
A holy minister is an awful
weapon in the hand of God. Robert Murray M'Cheyne 一位聖潔的傳道人是上帝手中可畏的武器。 |
The Christian ministry is the worst of all treads,
but the best of all professions. John Newton 教會事工是所有貿易之中最糟的貿易,但也是所有職業中最好的職業。 |
If there be a place under
heaven more holy than another, it is the pulpit whence the gospel is preached. C. H. Spurgeon 如果天底下有一個地方比任何一個地方聖潔,那就是在正傳講著福音的講壇上。 |
There is more to the ministry than being able to
talk. A. W. Tozer 教會事工遠超過僅是開口講話而已。 |
If we are God's man for the
job we should never make apologies for ourselves or for our preaching. Humphrey Vellacott 如果我們在傳道的事上是上帝的人,那我們永不需要為我們自己及我們的傳講而道歉。 |
