go•spel – [n.] good news

The gospel is the good news about what Jesus has done to reconcile sinners to God

 

IS THERE GOOD NEWS?

In a world of sin, chaos, evil, and death humanity is longing for good news and hope that can bring real and lasting joy. We believe that there is a promise of hope that meets the deepest need of all humanity. It is found in the gospel of Jesus Christ!

 
 

WHAT IS THE GOSPEL?

 

GOD

God is the loving creator and sovereign ruler of all things. He is perfectly holy, just, and alone is worthy of all worship. He created mankind to live under His loving rule and find complete joy in relationship with Him.

Genesis 1:1, Colossians 1:16-18, Revelation 4:11, Romans 1:20

MAN

All of humanity has willfully rebelled against God’s loving rule. As a result, mankind is in bondage to sin, subject to death and judgment, and can do nothing to earn forgiveness or restore his relationship with God.

Romans 3:10-12, 23, 6:23, Hebrews 9:27, Ephesians 2:8-9, Titus 3:5-6

CHRIST

In His love, God sent His Son – the man, Jesus Christ. He lived a sinless life, died to take God’s wrath in our place, and rose from the dead to bring forgiveness and new life to all who will believe.

1 Peter 3:18, 2 Corinthians 5:21, 1 Peter 1:3

RESPONSE

Only by grace through faith in Jesus can mankind have a restored relationship with God. God calls everyone everywhere to turn from their rebellion and depend on Jesus’ death for the forgiveness of sins and His resurrection for new life. 

Mark 1:15Acts 20:21Romans 10:9-10John 3:36

SO, WHAT ABOUT YOU?

  • Do you believe Jesus is who he says He is?

  • Are you ready and willing to turn from your way of thinking, believing and living?

  • Will trust Jesus alone for forgiveness and new life?
