Note: Before reading the following arguments, please understand that they are not what I believe. On Wednesdays, I deliberately argue for wrong ideas, challenging my listeners to call and defend the obvious right answer, which is usually far harder than one would expect. This is a summary of what Wacky Andrew will be arguing, not a representation of what real Andrew believes.
~What is the purpose of them? To make the Word of God clearer than it already is?
~God chooses to reveal Himself to some but not all people. Who are you to try to make Him more known to everyone?
~Was Scripture not written well enough to just be read?
~So many sermons are really quite bad.
~So many wonderful people just don’t have the gift of preaching effectively.
~Many sermons mislead toward moralism or fail to proclaim Christ or even to present Scripture at all.
~Paul did not preach with clever words. 1 Cor 2:4-5
~Jesus told us not to prepare our words beforehand. Matt 10:19, Luke 11:12
~You don’t need a teacher. 1 John 2:25-29
~Sola Scriptura doesn’t include sermons, does it?
~Isn’t Scripture enough? 2 Tim 3:13-16
~Preaching in the church today is completely different from preaching in the Bible.
