 | Lectures to Students images 05Description: One must wonder aloud if people would be so hungry for non-biblical (and unbiblical) “pictures of Christ” if such eminently biblical “pictures of Christ” drawn from the actual content of the Scriptures were more a mark of our preaching. All of this, of course, takes work. Even with Spurgeon’s remarkable memory, the crafting of such items for the pulpit did not come without much general and particular preparation. Such preparation is, however, part of our work as preachers. We should labor at it with the confidence that God will use it to turn our often dark, stuffy sermons into bright and airy proclamations of the living Word of God. Pay attention to the innumerable things that can turn your sermon lessons into illustrations. Study how other preachers (like Spurgeon) have done this in an exemplary manner.
