“You see, we don't go around preaching about ourselves. We
preach that Jesus Christ is Lord, and we ourselves are your servants for Jesus'
sake.” (2 Corinthians 4:5 NLT)
The One we preach is not Christ-in-a-vacuum, nor a
mystical Christ unrelated to the real world, nor even only the Jesus of ancient
history, but rather the contemporary Christ who once lived and died, and now
lives to meet human need in all its variety today.
-- John Stott in “Between
Two Worlds: The Challenge of Preaching Today”
