2016年8月26日 · The gospel is good news because it brings a person into the everlasting and ever-increasing joy of Jesus Christ. He is not merely the rope that pulls us from the threatening waves; he is the solid beach under our feet, and the air in our lungs, and the beat of our heart, and the warm sun on our skin, and the song in our ears, and the arms of ...

2007年9月12日 · That’s the gospel. You Can’t Outgrow the Gospel. You never, never, never outgrow your need for the gospel. Don’t ever think of the gospel as, “That’s the way you get saved, and then you get strong by leaving it and doing something else.” No! We are strengthened by God through the gospel every day, till the day we drop.

2002年6月5日 · The gospel is not just a sequence of steps (say, the "Four Laws" of Campus Crusade or the "Six Biblical Truths" of Quest for Joy). Those are essential. But what makes the gospel "good news" is that it connects a person with the "unsearchable riches of Christ." There is nothing in itself that makes "forgiveness of sins" good news.

2013年8月7日 · Mere truth won’t do it. Our souls desperately need the gospel. “The grace of God in truth” (Colossians 1:6) is the shock that brings a dead soul to life, and the charge that keeps it living. The gospel is the gas that awakens and energizes the human heart, not mere truth — essential as truth is. Two plus two equals four — that’s true.

2012年3月19日 · Here’s a summary of the gospel to help you understand it and enjoy it and share it! 1) God created us for his glory. “Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the end of the earth, everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory” (Isaiah 43:6–7).

2018年8月1日 · Here are six elements I see in that text on the gospel. If any one of these six is missing, we have no gospel. 1. The gospel is a divine plan. “Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures,” which were written hundreds of years before Christ died (1 Corinthians 15:3).

2014年11月22日 · The verse is Acts 20:24, “I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.” The ministry Paul had been given by the risen Christ was to “testify to the gospel of the grace of God.”

God Created Us for His Glory “Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth, everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory” (Isaiah 43:6-7).

But if you know the gospel of the kingdom (Matthew 4:23; 24:14), that is, if you know the good news that the kingdom has already come and is now at work like a dragnet gathering in a people for the kingdom (13:47–50) — if you know that the power of the kingdom is already present as well as future, then you will know that our becoming ...

2023年5月9日 · The end of Mark’s Gospel is unique in the New Testament in Vaticanus. 4 On the final page, the second of three columns ends with 16:8, with a small gap at the end of that column. The third column, where we would expect Luke’s Gospel to begin, is blank, and Luke begins on the next page.
