The Unsearchable Riches (Classic Reprint) - Tapa blanda

Excerpt from The Unsearchable Riches

Of course, preaching is a function of many forms. It is well to remember that in the New Testament there are Six words translated preacher - each contributing its little touch of colouring by way of definition. There is, first, the word herald. Two of the words, in fact, mean just a herald. The third means a herald of good news - the word used in the passage before us. The fourth signifies a talker.

Excerpt from The Unsearchable Riches

There is no work equal in range or richness to the great work of the holy ministry. The New Testament gives to it a peerless, an imperishable place. "It is the best calling but the worst trade in the world," wrote Matthew Henry. Dr. Cuyler once said that no royal throne was loftier or more lustrous than the pulpit of Jesus Christ. When Dr. Carey was labouring in India, and his son, Felix, had accepted the office of ambassador to the King of Burmah, Carey said one day to a friend, "Felix has lapsed into an ambassador"; meaning that to forsake the exalted vocation of the minister for even the highest earthly court was a descent. The man who is preaching Christ is handling fabulous treasure - "unsearchable riches" our text says.
