Stuart Olyott, in his book, Preaching Pure and Simple (Bryntirion Press, 2005) offers a whole chapter on the subject "What is preaching?"
I'm sure the basics of it were picked up in seminary. I once had to write a paper defining preaching. Someone on this board asked the question before, and I just opened the mental cupboard and started typing. I also probably heard something similar from Dr. Pipa.Where did you get the definition?
Yes, I think it is good too. It includes the phrase, "authorized (ordained), in His Name", so it includes by implication his limitation within the confines of the church that ordained him. That is, he is not limited as to authority in the Word, but limited as to his liberty within that Word.Originally posted by Contra_Mundum
If I can quote myself from another thread...
Preaching: the faithful, verbal, authoritative proclamation of God's revelation; as delivered by His authorized (ordained) herald, in His Name, without alteration or emmendation; boldly (fearlessly), with tears, teaching, reprooving, correcting, and training in righteousness; so that the Word accomplishes all for which He has sent it forth.
