“Preaching is a transaction where the people are given the mind of God through the written word, explained by a faithful preacher,” wrote Welsh minister and doctor D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones (1899-1981). “People are dealing with the living God and they must never approach the subject in a cavalier manner as if His very existence were up for debate.”
