“I fear that there are many evangelicals today who believe
that God spoke but doubt whether He speaks.
They know and talk about the fact that God spoke in the Old Testament
but think that now that He no longer does so and that they must therefore
invent new ways to convince people to love Him.
But if you call yourself a preacher of God’s Word, and you think that
all of God’s speaking was in the past, then resign. I say that with deadly seriousness. If you do not believe that God now speaks
from His Word-the Bible-then what are you doing every Sunday morning? If you are not confident that God speaks as
you rightly read and explain the Word of God, then you should quit.
But if you do believe that- if you truly believe that God speaks through His Word- then why would you substitute anything else in the place of the expository preaching of the Bible?” – Albert Mohler, “He is Not Silent” pg. 57-58
