Sinclair Ferguson warns ministers against an "oppositional tone" in preaching, where the pastor preaches in an "attack mode" and is "coming down upon the people instead of bringing them up to the Lord Jesus Christ."
He says there is a way in which men can even preach the great indicative truths of the Scriptures in an imperative tone because of the preacher's affections.
Sinclair includes this great line that the people need to hear that "the only interest Jesus has in their sin is to get rid of it."
Really convicting stuff here for preachers.
At a time when Messi will be celebrated by the people of Argentina with a beautiful farewell,Ronaldo, a 41 years old man is busy tormenting his new manager because he didn’t play a match,what is even worth idolising in such a selfish person?

The false teacher frees the congregation, because they’re not beholden to perform that which isn’t true.
The true teacher binds the congregation to the truth and the word requires performance.
