Preaching (5)
Preach Christ from All the Scriptures
The person and work of Jesus Christ is the substance of the Gospel. The beginning, middle, and end of the Christian life must be informed by the redemption that is in Christ Jesus—all the Scriptures are helpful for this. Jesus himself made it very clear that he is the main subject of all the Scriptures. Paul set the tone for our preaching by saying, "I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified." Friends, a sermon is not Christian unless it is Christocentric.

Mark Driscoll once said that the last and main question a preacher must ask himself about any text before preaching it is this: "How is Jesus the hero?"
Agreed!

Excellent points! Ditto to the original post and the comment above.
