The Foolishness of Preaching

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.

(1 Corinthians 1:21) KJV

Preaching may seem like foolishness but the beauty of it, and the grace of God, is that if you believe the message preached: the virgin birth, sacrificial death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, then you’ll receive the gift of salvation and have everlasting life.

The thing is, we still need preachers.

How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?

(Romans 10:14) NKJV

Not everyone’s cut out to be a preacher, and some of us aren’t qualified. Right now the world needs qualified individuals to preach the word like never before. If you think that you have what it takes to preach, in season and out of season, then you need to be connected to a local church. That’s the first step.
