If one preaches expositorilly, verse by verse from a book of scripture, then nothing is missed.

Nothing is missed? Perhaps you have not realized the majesty of Scripture. God has written a masterpiece replete with undiscovered treasure. I have had people answer my questions with verses that I have memorized.

Your answer has nothing to do with my point on expository preaching.
for example if a pastor preaches from the book of Romans and goes verse by verse and exposits, i.e. explains the verses, then nothing is missed in that book in that the topics that are brought forth in the verses, sin, the cross etc...are brought forth. To go verse by verse in a book prevents a preacher from just preaching on a favorite topic. It forces the preacher to preach the context of the book and not just preach via prooftext.
Here is good article to further clarify what i mean.

I also do realize the majesty of scripture, its inerrancy, infallability and that it is the sole rule of faith to help us learn more about and know God and what He expects from us.
