Divisions (run-on sentence OK, direct verbiage from Scripture/Principles are Aims for each Division):

Principle:  Stuff can separate people, but God never leaves or forsakes.

2.Abram recovers Lot after a battle between kings and gives a tenth to Melchizedek(14)

Principle:  Being in the wrong place can lead to capture, but rescue leads to praise.

 

Subject Sentence (10-word sentence with proper structure showing exactly where you are in Scripture):

Abram parts from and recovers Lot, giving Melchizedek a tenth.

 

Aim (“To Cause My Audience To…” Know, See, Desire etc.):

TCMATK God blesses His people and our response should be praise.

 

Application (not yes or no question.  Meant to bring about heart change):

1.On what are you basing your decisions: God’s revealed will or what your eyes see?

2.How has God rescued you today? Eternally? And how are you praising Him for rescuing you?

Homiletics Training: Content

Homiletics .   By definition, “homiletic” is the art of preaching or writing sermons.   I think we would all agree that our pastors study the Bible thoroughly to deliver sermons every Sunday to their congregations.   The beautiful news is that every child of God can use this discipline to study the Bible for themselves. As a member of Bible Study Fellowship (BSF) Leadership, part of my required preparation each week is to prepare homiletics for the passage we are studying.   BSF offers an engaging seminar on how to use this method to study the Scriptures.   I’ve taken the seminar several times under two different leaders and I’ve learned something new every time I’ve attended.   I’ve also been doing the process of homiletics for over ten years and I can say that there is no better teacher than the Holy Spirit in this process!   So keep practicing.   Keep sharing and discussing.   I’ve been posting my homiletics on this blog for quite a while, now.   And I would like to share wit
