Greetings, I have only watched 2 minutes of the video so far. But I just wanted to mention one quick thing: Didn't the revival preachers - like Wesley - always begin with the character of God, and man's sinful estate and man's rebellion against God? Rather than by telling people Jesus can set them free? One is God centered preaching, the other man centered preaching. I may be wrong but I thought I would mention this. I'm no great preacher so take these words with this in mind.
@JohnWesleyMethodist Thank you for your comment. Wesley said,"I think, the right method of preaching is this: At our first beginning to preach at any place, after a general declaration of the love of God to sinners, and his willingness that they should be saved, to preach the law, in the strongest, the closest, the most searching manner possible." (Letter on Preaching Christ-J. Wesley.)
I tend to follow this pattern in most of my preaching, not slavishly, but as a general principle.
@cgvtv Greetings Cgvtv, Obviously you know far more about this topic than I, and you are living according to the light that you have. God bless you. I've finally come to understand that I am no longer under the Law of sin and death and am learning the new life in Christ. Hopefully I will soon be out following you example, if the Spirit wills. God bless and keep it up!!!
