The primary reason for earning the Christian Art of Preaching honor can be found in Matthew 28:19-20:
 +
 +
{{Bible verse
 +
|book=Matthew
 +
|chapter=28
 +
|verse=19,20
 +
|version=NKJV
 +
|text=Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.
 +
}}
 +
 +
One of the most effective ways to accomplish the Lord's command in this verse is by preaching, and by earning this honor, you will learn how to preach well.  Remember that God will prepare the hearts of those who hear you - your job is to present His message.  It is the Holy Spirit's job to convict those who hear of the truth of His message.
 +
 +
A benefit of earning this  honor is that it will give you confidence when you step into a pulpit to deliver God's Word.  You might even become comfortable with public speaking in general (or God may choose to make you comfortable only with preaching - that is up to Him!)

Homiletics means the art of preaching. Homiletics comprises the study of the composition and delivery of religious discourses. It includes all forms of preaching: sermons, homilies and catechetical instruction. It may be further defined as the study of the analysis, classification, preparation, composition and delivery of sermons.
 +
 +
The formation of lectureships like the Lyman Beecher course at Yale University resulted in increased emphasis on homiletics. The published volumes of this series are a useful source of information regarding the history and practice of the discipline.

You must do the research to earn this honor, but this answer key can provide a few search terms to get you started:
 +
*William Miller
 +
*Ellen G White
 +
*Joseph Bates
 +
*J.N. Andrews
 +
*George Vandeman
 +
*Mark Finley
 +
*Kenneth Cox
 +
 +
Note that all of these individuals are from the United States, as that was the cradle of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.  If you do not know of a distinguished speaker from your country, ask your Pathfinder instructor, pastor, or a church elder.  Once you have the name, you can then do the research (which should include listening to a sermon delivered by this person).

1

Discuss the reasons / benefits of earning a Christian Art of Preaching honor.


The primary reason for earning the Christian Art of Preaching honor can be found in Matthew 28:19-20:



Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.
— Matthew 28:19,20 (NKJV)

One of the most effective ways to accomplish the Lord's command in this verse is by preaching, and by earning this honor, you will learn how to preach well. Remember that God will prepare the hearts of those who hear you - your job is to present His message. It is the Holy Spirit's job to convict those who hear of the truth of His message.

A benefit of earning this honor is that it will give you confidence when you step into a pulpit to deliver God's Word. You might even become comfortable with public speaking in general (or God may choose to make you comfortable only with preaching - that is up to Him!)



2

Define homiletic and cite your resources.


From Wikipedia

Homiletics means the art of preaching. Homiletics comprises the study of the composition and delivery of religious discourses. It includes all forms of preaching: sermons, homilies and catechetical instruction. It may be further defined as the study of the analysis, classification, preparation, composition and delivery of sermons.

The formation of lectureships like the Lyman Beecher course at Yale University resulted in increased emphasis on homiletics. The published volumes of this series are a useful source of information regarding the history and practice of the discipline.

From Merriam Webster

homeletics: the art of preaching

4a

Define oratory


From Wikipedia

Public speaking, also called oratory or oration, has traditionally meant the act of speaking face to face to a live audience. Today it includes any form of speaking (formally and informally) to an audience, including pre-recorded speech delivered over great distance by means of technology.
