The words of the Preacher, the son
of David, king in Jerusalem.
(Ecclesiastes 1:1)
I the Preacher was king
over Israel in Jerusalem.
(Ecclesiastes 1:12)
From that time Jesus began to
preach, and to say, Repent: for
the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
(Matthew 4:17)
And seeing the multitudes, he went
up into a mountain: and when he
was set, his disciples came unto
him: And he opened his mouth,
and taught them, saying,
(Matthew 5:1,2)
Then Philip went down to the city
of Samaria, and preached Christ
unto them. And the people with one
accord gave heed unto those things
which Philip spake, hearing and
seeing the miracles which he did. For unclean spirits,
crying with loud voice, came out
of many that were possessed with
them: and many taken with palsies,
and that were lame, were healed. And there was great joy
in that city. But there was a certain
man, called Simon, which
beforetime in the same city used
sorcery, and bewitched the people
of Samaria, giving out that
himself was some great one: To whom they all gave
heed, from the least to the
greatest, saying, This man is the
great power of God. And to him they had
regard, because that of long time
he had bewitched them with
sorceries. But when they believed
Philip preaching the things
concerning the kingdom of God, and
the name of Jesus Christ, they
were baptized, both men and women.
(Acts 8:5-12)
And he arose and went:
and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an
eunuch of great authority under
Candace queen of the Ethiopians,
who had the charge of all her
treasure, and had come to
Jerusalem for to worship, Was returning, and
sitting in his chariot read Esaias
the prophet. Then the Spirit said
unto Philip, Go near, and join
thyself to this chariot. And Philip ran thither
to him, and heard him read the
prophet Esaias, and said,
Understandest thou what thou
readest? And he said, How can I,
except some man should guide me?
And he desired Philip that he
would come up and sit with him. The place of the
scripture which he read was this,
He was led as a sheep to the
slaughter; and like a lamb dumb
before his shearer, so opened he
not his mouth: In his humiliation his
judgment was taken away: and who
shall declare his generation? for
his life is taken from the earth. And the eunuch answered
Philip, and said, I pray thee, of
whom speaketh the prophet this? of
himself, or of some other man? Then Philip opened his
mouth, and began at the same
scripture, and preached unto him
Jesus. And as they went on
their way, they came unto a
certain water: and the eunuch
said, See, here is water; what
doth hinder me to be baptized? And Philip said, If
thou believest with all thine
heart, thou mayest. And he
answered and said, I believe that
Jesus Christ is the Son of God. And he commanded the
chariot to stand still: and they
went down both into the water,
both Philip and the eunuch; and he
baptized him.
(Acts 8:27-38)
And when he had
received meat, he was
strengthened. Then was Saul
certain days with the disciples
which were at Damascus. And straightway he
preached Christ in the synagogues,
that he is the Son of God.
(Acts 9:19,20)
For Christ sent me not to baptize,
but to preach the gospel: not with
wisdom of words, lest the cross of
Christ should be made of none
effect. For the preaching of the
cross is to them that perish
foolishness; but unto us which are
saved it is the power of God. For
after that in the wisdom of God
the world by wisdom knew not God,
it pleased God by the foolishness
of preaching to save them that
believe. But we preach Christ
crucified, unto the Jews a
stumblingblock, and unto the
Greeks foolishness; But God hath
chosen the foolish things of the
world to confound the wise; and
God hath chosen the weak things of
the world to confound the things
which are mighty; And base things
of the world, and things which are
despised, hath God chosen, yea,
and things which are not, to bring
to nought things that are: That no
flesh should glory in his
presence.
(1 Corinthians
1:17,18,21,23,27-29)
And spared not the old world, but
saved Noah the eighth person, a
preacher of righteousness,
bringing in the flood upon the
world of the ungodly;
(2 Peter 2:5) |

We have, in

by side; one which we preach but
do not practice, and another which
we practice but seldom preach.

It is no use
walking anywhere to preach unless
our walking is our preaching.
--St. Francis of Assisi quotes

than preach. Make of your life an

capability then go beyond to a
higher level.

When a person is
down in the world, an ounce of
help is better than a pound of
preaching.

There should be

not a meeting point.

None preaches
better than the ant, and she says

The best sermon

understanding that a hearer can
say: "It was preached for me as
though I had been alone.

The greatness of
Christianity did not lie in
attempted negotiations for
compromise with any similar
philosophical opinions in the
ancient world, but in its
inexorable fanaticism in preaching
and fighting for its own doctrine.
--Adolf Hitler quotes

Nazi party, 1889-1945)
