Preaching Through The Bible Powerfully Using A Biblical Timeline
Unfortunately, a many Pastors and Bible teachers in our churches go on and preach shallow, superficial, flimsy, light weight messages and their members scarcely grow in biblical knowledge and understanding. Preachers love to preach'moral essays' and'warming affirmations' because supposedly, if we really love people this is what we'll do. Regrettable it seems, if God's people are falling through the cracks'for a lack of knowledge' so long as we're nice and loving to all. In truth, the more like this world, the less relevant we're to this world.
Years ago, I was speaking on the life, burial, resurrection and death of Christ Jesus, and a retired pastor and powerful preacher of the Bible, who had been a minister for forty years, came up and reproved me vigorously over some interesting points I made and he mentioned 1Ti 1:4'Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.' I quietly asked him if I had been teaching anything of a heretical nature at all, to which he answered"No". I continued to describe that in the case of that particular verse, it wasn't speaking to examining Scripture but to the false teachings and philosophy of Gnosticism, but he would not accept it. So, how can a forty year minister & laborer in the Gospel, not understand and know about something that possibly half the books of the New Testament relate to?
How can he understand and preach the Bible in fullness without being familiar with something that was so influential in the New Testament church? And then how can the congregation hope to comprehend these things and be able to understand their Bible properly, if they are not informed?
Let's us as tutors and preachers sew together the aspects of the Bible and God's plan into a seamless tapestry that our people can draw on for the rest of their lives, helping them to comprehend God, His Eternal Plan, the function of the Church and ways to better translate the Bible to model our lives by.
It is not difficult to do, and it is not boring if we're prepared to put in a bit of effort prayer and fervor, and just perhaps you can utilize a Bible Timeline as well.
