Some teachers have great faith for healing, others signs and miracles, others may be great Bible history teachers. However, the absolutely most important thing is make sure the Bible teacher you are watching or listening to is baptized in the power of the Holy Spirit as the book of Acts chapter 2 illustrates. Some teachers are not always 100%

Who can argue that the Apostle Paulwas not the most effective preacher of the Word. We cannot overlook Paul just because He was the most prolific of writers in the New Testament or that he planted churches throughout the Roman Empire because much of his of preaching was done in his letters to the churches. Preachers for two-thousand years would use...
There are few arguments that this man, Charles Haddon Spurgeon, is the preacher among preachers outside of the Bible and he was called the Prince of Preachers. Testimony to that are the more than 300 million copies of his sermons and his influence in the formation of over 200 other churches. In my own personal library I have some of Charles Spurgeo...
Most people only think of Martin Luther as the Reformer or having begun the Great Reformation. He had this to his credit but he was also an astoundingly great Bible expositor. While imprisoned, he translated the Bible into German. The Protestant church clearly owes this man’s selfless effort and bold, courageous work in what had been missing for ce...
Whatever this man had, he gave every ounce of his fiber to it. Under his direction, the Methodist church, the real founder of it, made the gospel a social one where Christians were expected to be salt and light and getting the salt out of the shaker and the light out from under the basket, being the chief advocate for as an abolitionist while fight...
George Whitfield’s preaching drove and helped to sustain the Great Awakening, at the time the greatest revival that the world had ever seen since Jonah preached to Nineveh and the whole city-state repented.

This Puritan Preacher stood tall in the biblically centered message and life. His sermon, Sinners in the Hands of an Angry Godmade people weep and repent by the dozens and may be the single, greatest se...
Could this man, John Knox, ever put his soul into his preaching! He was so inspiring that his preaching transformed all of Scotland. Being a student of John Calvin, who is also in this list, may have been a case where the pupil outdid the teacher. His Bible-centered preaching made people take up his passion for the lost souls of men and women.
What John Calvin did for the gospel was to put to paper what had previously never been written about. He was one of the first preachers to preach progressively through each book of the Bible. He never preached topologically but his was expository; that is he exposited or preached from line to line giving a personal commentary for each verse. His wr...
John Wycliffe was one of the first proponents to make the Bible available to the common man and woman. He focused on Bible-centered reform knowing that most of the public heard sermons in either Latin or not at all. He wanted them to be able to read a Biblein their own language so he translated the Bible himself so that they could.
I have left the last one to you. In my opinion, it could be the Apostle Peter who preached maybe the single greatest sermon ever on the Day of Pentecost. It may have been Stephen who before the Sanhedrin gave one of the best surveys of the Old Testament in proclaiming Christ as the Promised Messiah. There is also Alexander Maclaren, John Mac Arthur...
