Bible exposition establishes the authority of God over the mind and soul of the hearer. . .In the church all the authority belongs to God. I never want the peopleDr. John MacArthur Jr. to think that I’m the authority. I always want them to know that He is the authority, that He has the right to speak, His Words are pure, His Words are perfect, His Words are convicting, His Words are saving, His Words are sanctifying. So the basic reality here is who has the authority in the Church. Every time you enter a sacred desk like this to preach, you must speak for God. It’s what a man of God does. God has given us the unsearchable glories of His Word and He has commanded us to declare it. That’s why the Bible says “preach the Word.” Because, you’re going to give an account to God…before God and the Lord Jesus Christ who will judge the living and the dead. Preach the Word. There never should be a question in anybody’s mind in a church where the authority lies.
