Why is it that when Tom Farrell preaches, there is just usually a period of time where it’s really quiet? Have you ever heard this saying: a message in the head reaches the head, and a message in the heart reaches the heart? Go one step further, preachers: a message from the conscience reaches the conscience. Once you’ve reached the conscience of an individual, that’s when the life is going to be changed.
Invitations Give People an Opportunity to Respond to the Holy Spirit
For many years churches have ended the sermon with a call for people to come to the front and receive Christ or to rededicate their life. I realize no one has to come forward to the altar in order to be saved. People can be saved at home, at work, or anywhere the Spirit of God convicts and draws a man. Salvation doesn’t have to occur at the church altar. However, souls can be saved at the conclusion of the sermon in the house of God.
