For a man to preach with the missions passion of John Piper, the biblical power of John MacArthur, the story-telling excellence of Chuck Swindoll, the community love of Andy Stanley, the natural humor of John Ortberg, the directness of Alistair Begg, the Christ-centeredness of Charles Spurgeon, the postmodern sensitivity of Tim Keller, and the worldview precision of Ravvi Zacharias, would make an outstanding preacher. But for a man to preach with an authority so unworldly that it disarms every opponent, would require that preacher to be God incanate.

The officers answered, "Never has a man spoken the way this man speaks." (John 7:44-46)
