1 Corinthians 15:1[KJV]
Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand
The gospel of salvation must be preached. Preaching is the medium of delivering the Good News of Redemption to the world. It is the proclamation of our conviction in the saving power of the Lord Jesus Christ. Many times, it is confused with teaching. Teaching requires expertise, preaching does not. 1 Cor 1:21 says God saves people through the 'foolishness of preaching'.
Teaching draws more from knowledge, preaching from conviction and passion. Every believer is called to preach, teaching is a special calling to the body of Christ.
Preaching is what gets unbelievers saved, teaching is what establishes the believer in Christ.
Of course, it is difficult to fully separate the two, and it is not to rate one above another. But essentially, preaching is basic and we are encouraged to do it 'in and out of season' (1 Tim 4:2). In fact, Paul said preaching, for him was a 'necessity'. (1 Cor 9:15).
If the gospel must spread, every believer should be involved.
Find an opportunity to preach the gospel today.
Prayer: Lord Jesus, make me a laborer in your harvest that I may be ever willing to preach your good news. Amen.
