Preachers Today Should Follow the Example of Bible Preachers in Denouncing Sin

Bible preachers preached against sin. The prophets of the Old Testament, the apostles and preachers of the New Testament, even Jesus Christ Himself, preached boldly and definitely against sin. They preached not only against sin in general, but against sin in particular. They preached not only against the sin of unbelief, but they preached against stealing, lying, adultery, murder, hypocrisy, drunkenness, immodest dress, covetousness, and every sin that the most fervent and sensational evangelist is accused of preaching against today! Every preacher commended in the Bible was against sin and said so. Preachers today should follow the example of Bible preachers and preach against sin.
