Bolt looks at the relationship between the sermon and the Word of God. He explores the genres in the New Testament, with a focus of the reading aloud of the New Testament documents. 1. The revelation of God himself Bolt explores the structure of a service, mainly, when is the sermon. He looks at the structure of the sermon itself in light of both Christ's first and second comings. Bolt looks at the historical fact of Christ's life, death, and resurrection, and thus that it never changes. The result is that the audience should be able to distinguish between true and false teachers. 2. The word of the witnesses Bolt shows that this too is historical evidence 3. Church proclamation Here, the Word of God is heard subjectively by the believer, as the Holy Spirit reveals it to us. Here, God makes himself known to believers. 4. Paul's writings as an example People recognise it as the Word of God, and thus Paul's writings are an example of a sermon. Talk is followed by questions Originally delivered 2004-09-15
