by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on November 2, 2025)
Having examined in some detail the two types of zeal described in the first half of Romans 10, the one being a sincere but misplaced zeal and the other being an informed and proper zeal, we turn now to the normal way by which a regenerated child of God comes to embrace the gospel message: by hearing the preaching of the gospel. In today’s portion of the sermon, we deal with the purpose of preaching the gospel message. We are reminded that “whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved,” but that this salvation is not an eternal salvation. Rather, it is a salvation – or deliverance – that occurs in time. The purpose of preaching is not to bring life and immortality to the child of God, but rather to bring that life and immortality – that has already been imparted through the new birth – to light. Join us today as we look at the purpose of the preaching of the gospel, and how true evangelism should be paramount in the work of the church.
