Why is preaching from Scripture important?

Answered in 1 source

Preaching from Scripture is vital because it is God’s chosen means to open blind eyes and transform hearts.

The importance of preaching from Scripture is paramount in the ministry of the Word. Romans 10:17 tells us that faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God. In Acts 17, Paul reasoned from the Scriptures, showcasing its authority in revealing who Christ is and leading sinners to faith. The Scriptures are the power of God for salvation, serving as the means by which the Holy Spirit applies salvation to chosen hearts. It is through the proclamation of God's Word that sinners are turned upside down—shifting them from the perspective of self-righteousness to the understanding of their need for Christ's grace.
