Make your message clear and plain

It's a pity that some of our pastors in trying to impress the congregation that he is a man of much learning get lost in a plethora of big words and high sounding phrases. The ordinary man in the street or should I say in the congregation sometimes get confused and I don't blame them for switching off and have a little nap during the sermon. My advise to my fellow preachers of the word - Keep your message simple, and use picture words.

"Make the message clear and plain, Christ receiveth sinful men" says the hymn writer.
Another writer says, "Tell me the story simply as to a little child, for I am weak and weary and helpless and defiled."
