Why is it important for church leaders to proclaim the whole counsel of God?

Answered in 1 source

Proclaiming the whole counsel of God ensures that the church is fed with the truth necessary for spiritual growth (Acts 20:28).

The emphasis on declaring the 'whole counsel of God' is vital because it protects the church from teachings that may distort the gospel for individual or popular gain. As noted in the sermon, church leaders must not water down God's message to please people's desires; rather, they are to present the full truths of Scripture. This completeness in preaching fosters spiritual health among believers, allowing them to grow in grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ, which is essential for their walk in faith and perseverance through trials.
