The Study of Homiletics
Monday November 27, 2000
Objective of Class:
To develop God's people to communicate the Gospel in an effective
and efficient manner.
- Need to communicate the Gospel
in an innovative fashion
- If you preached the message, you need to be prayed up
- Sometimes preachers are giving quick fixes, but we need to
focus on delivering what God knows people need
Example: At the Gate Beautiful, the man wanted alms and food.
Instead, Peter and John healed him.
Crutches in Preaching
- someone saying words such as "hallelujah" or "can
I get an amen" constantly
- not taking enough time to deliver
- sweating profusely, excessive spitting
Homework Assignment
For taped Sermon list these points:
a. title
b. introduction
c. text
d. body of sermon
d. body of message
e. conclusion
f. The altar call
- If you do an expository sermon,
10 extra points.
Apostolic preaching should always
have a call to souls; best altar calls are the product of a great
sermon
Types of sermon
1) textual - simply expounds on the thought of a passage; typically
deals with the story
2) topical - sermon that chooses topics and researches other
references on that topics
3) textual/topics - combination of the first two
4) biographical - uses a person as a Biblical example of a spiritual
truth
5) expository - expounds on a passage word for word, phrase for
phrase, and thought for thought. Example: Ephesians 4:22-24,
"put off the old man..."
- The prophetic realm is when God gives you another message
One of the hardest things for
young preachers is where to begin their sermons.
Learn to take notes on everything (especially sermons); the best
thoughts can come in the most simple things in life
