The Good Book is still Good.
Oliver Green was one of the preachers I heard some of via radio when I was young and played on air when I worked in religious broadcasting.
Green’s radio preaching was clear and solid.
Another good preacher-teacher I remember was J. Vernon McGee and his “Thru the Bible” series.
The Bible tells it like it is, the problem for me was reading and making it fit my selfish thoughts with selective quotation.
I’ve hated the atheists and liberal church people and the more conservative religious people too in my lifetime for petty reasons related to being a drunk.
I was the greatest of hypocrites, but just because other folk who use the Lord’s name are, doesn’t give me a license to be critical.
In the Good Book its laid out clearly ‘do as the religious leaders say, not as they do’.
You surely must be reading my mind, FRiend! :)
Yes indeed, “Thru the Bible” with Dr. McGee was -- and remarkably still is -- a sound, Bible-based program. His style was much more low-keyed than that of Oliver B. Green but both led many to Christ. And to this day, whenever we sing "How Firm a Foundation" at church, I always think of J. Vernon McGee, a native Texas from Hillsboro.
