Is faith a matter of the mind only, or is there some feeling mixed in with it? The Charismatics look for the feeling – the experience. The Baptists look for the teaching. When the Bible says “we walk by faith, not by sight” does that mean we set aside the feeling and recall from our minds what God said and walk that way? What feeling could there possibly be that would be reason or justification enough to go against God's word?
If sermons can be rated as to worth, say from $0 to $3.00 dollars, X preaches a $2.00 sermon. What does it mean when he preaches a $1.80 sermon and we have to add to it $0.20 from our own store so that it can be a somewhat balanced sermon? Where do we get the other dollar? What about when this happens Sunday after Sunday? What about the people who don't have anything to add because they do not actually read the Bible. If they read, they read books about what is said in the Bible. What do they do?
