"No Christ in your sermon, sir? Then go home, and never
preach again until you have something worth preaching." C.H. Spurgeon
"It is rare for any movement of God
to continue in its fervor for more than 3 generations. If the living person
Jesus continues to remain the center you have a fighting chance that everything
you’ve righteously worked hard to build may continue for many generations. The
foundation is secure. This will require, however, constant reformation on your
part. This is why the reformers of the 16th century believed in semper
reformanda (always reforming). We continually
need to make adjustments to keep Jesus the center of our sermons, church, and
our very lives. Thankfully, we do not have a far away God, we have a near God
with a living Savior." Tim Kimberly, Preaching Morality vs. Preaching Christ | Parchment and Pen
