How do we know that preaching is important for salvation?

Answered in 1 source

Preaching is important for salvation because, according to the Bible, God chooses to save through the foolishness of preaching to those who believe.

The Bible indicates that it pleased God to use the 'foolishness of preaching' to save those who believe. This does not imply that the act of preaching alone saves, but rather that it is the content of the gospel that brings life to those whom God has called. The message of Christ crucified may seem foolish to the world, but to those who are called, it is the power of God and the wisdom of God. This emphasizes the necessity of proclaiming the gospel, as it is through this means that God reveals Himself and imparts faith, enabling individuals to believe.
