Make It Plain...

To ALL Pastors, Ministers, Leaders and Believers... When we present, or even preach the gospel, it's VITAL that we make the message understandable, and relative to those that hear it. We may study, and become quite fluent in Hebrew, Greek or even Latin, but when relaying the gospel to those who aren't learned, or well-versed in those languages, we lose their attentiveness for their trying to figure out the meaning of what we're saying. I tend to see & hear much Hebrew posted and preached, yet it's not that effective in relaying message of the Good News of the gospel to the readers & hearers. For the mature believer, this is acceptable in "some" cases, namely among teachers, but the gospel, or even the sharing of our visions/messages from God, with others, MUST be simple enough for a child to understand and receive. Take heed... God spake to Habakkuk, “Write my answer plainly on tablets, so that a runner can carry the correct message to others." - (Hab. 2:2 NLT)... Write it plain; speak it plain; people's souls are at stake, and many are being left confused. So keep it simple; preach it simple... Preach the gospel, the UNCOMPROMISED Word of God.

Paul's Message of Wisdom... "When I first came to you, dear brothers and sisters, I didn’t use lofty words and impressive wisdom to tell you God’s secret plan. For I decided that while I was with you I would forget everything except Jesus Christ, the one who was crucified. I came to you in weakness - timid and trembling. And my message and my preaching were very plain. Rather than using clever and persuasive speeches, I relied only on the power of the Holy Spirit. I did this so you would trust not in human wisdom but in the power of God. Yet when I am among mature believers, I do speak with words of wisdom, but not the kind of wisdom that belongs to this world or to the rulers of this world, who are soon forgotten. No, the wisdom we speak of is the mystery of God - his plan that was previously hidden, even though he made it for our ultimate glory before the world began. But the rulers of this world have not understood it; if they had, they would not have crucified our glorious Lord. That is what the Scriptures mean when they say, “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.” But it was to us that God revealed these things by his Spirit. For his Spirit searches out everything and shows us God’s deep secrets." - 1 Corinthians 1:1-10 (NLT)
