Building the Church Through Preaching
from Reproof on SermonAudio Hosted by Sybrand De Swardt
This teaching outlines a philosophy for building up the church through preaching, emphasising that the congregation consists of redeemed believers who are already positioned in Christ. It argues that preaching must move beyond mere behavioral correction to address the heart, utilizing Scripture for teaching, reproof, correction, and training in righteousness. The message distinguishes between person-centered preaching, which redirects hearts toward Christ and grace, and problem-centered preaching, which offers only temporary relief. By focusing on progressive sanctification and the eschatological hope of maturity, the teaching calls for a holistic approach that integrates public proclamation with private teaching and counseling to equip saints for ministry.
