“The second element I would emphasise is a sense of authority and contol over the congregation and the proceedings. The preacher should never be apologetic, he should never give the impression that he is speaking by their leave as it were; he should not be tentatively putting forward certain suggestions and ideas. That is not to be his attitude at all. He is a man, who is there to ‘declare’ certain things; he is a man under commission and under authority” (Lloyd-Jones, Preachers and Preaching, p. 83).
