The servants of God are not to speak what they like, they are commissioned to proclaim Christ. To proclaim Him:—
1. In the saving of His grace. "This is a faithful saying…Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners" (1Ti 1:15).
2. In the strength of His power. "It is the power of God unto salvation" (Rom 1:16).
3. In the claim of His lordship. "We preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord" (2Cr 4:5).
4. In the sufficiency of His substitution. "Preached unto him Jesus" (Act 8:35).
5. In the forgiving of His love. "Through this Man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins" (Act 13:38-39).
6. In the power of His resurrection. "Preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead" (Act 4:2).
7. In the glory of His person. "Teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus" (Act 28:31).
8. In the coming of His kingdom. "This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world…then shall the end come" (Mat 24:14).
