Intelligent listeners will notice differences in teaching between preachers even in the same denomination, as well as between denominations.

  2. When a minister is absent from a pulpit for one reason or another, whoever does the services in his place, can easily do just as good a job sometimes if not better.

      Hi Dave,

      True, another preacher may correct or add clarity where there was previous confusion, but I was thinking about clarifying mistakes on a more systematic and proper basis; that is why I supplied a link to a suggested solution.
