Light On The
Lesson
JESUS THE PREACHER
Discussed By
REV. S. L. WATERHOUSE
Pastor, Firat Baptist Church
We think of Jesus as the
Greatest Teacher who ever lived
and indeed He was for He taught
with authority and not as the
scribes. We also think of Him as
a healer and a worker of miracles
because He healed the sick, re
stored sight to the blind, cleansed
lepers, raised the dead, calmed
the story sea, fed the five
thousand with five loaves and two
fishes and many other wonderful
deeds.
But He was also a preacher.
“Jesus came to Galilee preaching
the gospel of the Kingdom of
God. It is sometimes asked, •’is
preaching necessary,” The answer
is definitely yes. This is God’s
method of proclaiming the Gos
pel. “For after that in the wisdom
of God the world by wisdom knew
not God, it pleased God by the
foolishness of preaching to save
them that believe” 1 Corinthians
1:21. Jesus considered His
preaching as a fulfillment of
Isaiah’s prophecy which He read
in the synagogue in Nazareth.
This passage is given in the Gold
en Text for this week. Having
been anointed with the Holy
Spirit at His baptism, he read the
Spirit of the Lord upon me to
preach. He was to preach the gos
pel—good news—to the poor.
Those in spiritual poverty, wheth
er they were rich or poor in the
material things of this world. He
was to preach deliverance—set
ting free—to those captives en
slaved by sin. Jesus could preach
deliverance to the captives of sin
because He would give His life
on the cross for sinners. He was
to preach the acceptable year of
the Lord. The people probably
wondered at these announce
ments of the Kingdom of God
having arrived. Where was it and
where was its kings? Jesus had
no army, throne, nor any display
of worldly glory. Jesus knowing
their thoughts, told them to re
pent of their sin and believe the
gospel. This is the King’s High
way that we discussed last week.
Jesus called his first four dis
ciples in this week’s scripture
passage. He had begun prepara
tion for the continuance of His
ministry after His ascension.
Upon the disciples then and upon
us now falls the responsibility to
continue His ministry of preach
ing, teaching and healing.
The ministry of Jesus was un
dergirded by prayer. Through
prayer come guidance, power,
strength, wisdom and fellowship
with God. It has been rightly
said that the Kingdom of God ad
vances on its knees. Effective
preaching, teaching, and healing
is grounded in prayer.
Jesus had won the hearts of
the people. His disciples told Him
that, “all men seek for thee.” He
had accomplished what He set out
to do. How wonderful! No! Jesus
was not satisfied with this suc
cess. Instead of looking at what
had been done He looked at what
was yet to be done. He said, “Let
us go into the next towns, that
I may preach there also: for
therefore came I forth.” Jesus
said in essence that we must dis
perse the gospel; we must spread
out. The greatest sin of Christian
ity today is being satisfied with
what we have done. We must fol
low the pattern of Jesus and
DISPERSE THE GOSPEL. We
must continue to build missions,
new churches, and advance our
missionary effort around the
world. Here is the beginning of
the Great Commission. Jesusi

THE CHURCH FOR ALL...
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church U the greatest fac
tor on earth for the building of
character and good citizenship.
It is a storehouse of spiritual val
ues. Without a strong Church,
neither democracy nor civiliza
tion can survive. There are four
sound reasons why every person
should attend services regularly
and support the Church. They
are: (1) For his own sake. (2)
For his children’s sake. (3) For
the sake of his community and
nation. (4) For the sake of the
Church itself, which needs his
moral and material support.
Plan to go to church regularly
and read your Bible daily.

Died on Sunday
Mr. Charlie Monroe Conkle, 77,
father of Mrs. Edna Capehart of
Jackson, died Sunday morning
at his home on the High Falls
Road, Route 4, Griffin, following
an illness of several months.
A native of Henry County, he
had lived in Spalding County for
40 years and was engaged in
farming until his retirement six
years ago. He was a member of
the Musella Baptist Church.
Funeral services were conduc
ted Monday afternoon from the
Midway Methodist Church with
interment in the church cemetery.
Haisten Funeral Home of Griffin
was in charge of arrangements.
Jimmy was so fascinated by his new goldfish
that we thought he’d forgotten about the other one.
Then, suddenly, he looked up and asked, “Mommy,
will this one die too?”
I tried, as gently as I could, to tell him that, in
time, all things die. And as I did so, I realized how
valuable it is for a child to have even as small a
pet as a goldfish. For in observing a pet even in
suffering the loss of one— a child begins to learn
a great deal about life, in a natural and understand
able way.
But I warned myself, it is important to realize
that he is learning only the visual, material part of
the lesson. In order to understand what he is seeing,
and what he is feeling, he must be taught its
spiritual meaning. This is why religious education
is so important. That is why Jimmy attends church
with us ... and he’ll start church school, next fall.
