1 Corinthians 2:5
KJV
That
your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
The:
- Desire
- Goal
- Object and
- Aim
of every:
- Pastor
- Evangelist and
- Soul winner
ought to be found within this passage. Our place is not to make converts
after ourselves. No man would be better off eternally for being a follower of
any Christian. The purpose and cause of Christ is in no way advanced by
collecting any number of people together under a charismatic and even well
meaning Christian leader.
- What men need
- What our world needs
- What Bible preaching is intended to do
is to bring souls
to faith in Jesus Christ. The temptation to use the dynamic means of the
Christian message to effect cultural and political change is enormous. To
use that same means to develop our own following is almost inescapable. But the
true servant of the Lord will stay on target. His desire is to help people have
faith in God and not in men.
