He Preached Jesus To Him
What have you come here this morning to hear? What is it that our sermons are to consist of? Your answer to both these questions might be the same . . . a. We have come here to hear the gospel. b. That is what sermons should consist of “good news” — gospel. The good news of which we so often speak is good news about a Savior and the salvation He has brought to us.
It is the good news concerning Jesus. In Acts 8:35 Luke records this statement, “Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning from this Scripture he preached Jesus to him.” There are three questions that I would like for us to consider this morning: a. What prompted the preaching of Jesus? b. Of what did the preaching of Jesus consist? c. What was the result of that preaching?
I believe that when Jesus is preached, good things happen, even as they did in the passage read for us this morning.
