#1,049: What is the Gospel of Jesus Christ?
Manage episode 431571523 series 2800784
In my years of serving as a pastor, I’ve discovered that often people have an incomplete understanding of the gospel of Jesus Christ. As we share the message of faith in Jesus, people are often ready to receive Jesus in their life. They certainly want forgiveness, they want God’s blessings, and they want the assurance of Heaven.
But is that all there is to it? Why did Jesus come? Why did he have to die on the cross? Why do we need salvation? What happens when we put our faith in Jesus? What does it mean to be a Christian? The answers to these questions are so important.
Main Points:
1. The word “gospel” simply means good news. The word “gospel” appears 93 times in the New Testament. It is the good news concerning Christ and the way of salvation.
2. The gospel is the message of forgiveness for sin through the atoning work of Jesus Christ. It is essentially God’s rescue plan of redemption for those who will trust in His divine Son to be reconciled to a just and holy God.
3. Have you received the gospel? Have you trusted Jesus Christ as your savior? You can do so today by placing your faith in Jesus, his death, and resurrection for your sins.
Today’s Scripture Verses:
“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23).
“But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8)
“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast.”(Ephesians 2:8–9).
