That seems like a no-brainer to me.
A side note: just in case there is anyone here who might have the 'ear' of LS, stories and endless data are not what I want, or better than that, NEED to hear in a sermon.
Thank the Lord that I have a pastor who preaches the Word. It challenges be to stretch out in faith and godliness. It reproves me and stirs me. It lifts me up as well as move me to tears and travail.
Praise the Lord for the Word and for men and women who know how to administer it in power and love.  |
You are so radical! Actually wanting the Word preached. I have noticed that some preachers seem to use a few scattered scriptures to support their thoughts. I don't mind sermons that are a theme that draws from different scriptures but I do like the balance to be that there is substantial scripture as the basis.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
