"....we were bold in our God to speak unto you the gospel of God...." 1Thess 2:4
The bold font in our documents, makes type stand out and more noticeable. Boldness in God is necessary in preaching the gospel, particularly because, as Paul expressed here to the Thessalonians, such proclaiming is often met with opposition, unbelief and ridicule. Spiritual boldness however is not intended to make the 'speaker' stand out and be noticed, but to make the Lord and His message notable and prominent! This holy exercise cannot be carried out therefore in the strength, ability or eloquence of man, but requires the anointing of the Spirit of God, which emboldens the messenger and etches the veracity of God's Word as it is dispatched into the hearts of sincere listeners.
