Why is gospel preaching important for Christians?

Answered in 2 sources

Gospel preaching is vital because it is the primary means through which God calls His elect to faith (Romans 10:14-17).

Gospel preaching is essential for Christians because it conveys the message of salvation through Jesus Christ, as seen in Romans 10:14-17. The passage emphasizes that faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ. This indicates that without the preaching of the gospel, individuals cannot come to faith. Moreover, preaching fosters spiritual growth and encourages believers to hold fast to the truths of the gospel, reinforcing their reliance on God's grace and the finished work of Christ. It is through the proclamation of the gospel that the Holy Spirit works to awaken hearts, draw the elect, and bring them into the fold.
