The Prize of the Gospel

“The gospel is the good news that God in Christ paid the price of suffering, so that we could have the prize of enjoying him forever. God paid the price of his Son to give us the prize of himself.” -- John Piper

Very, Very Good News

“The gospel, or 'good news,' about Christ is very, very good news because the truth about human beings without Him is so horribly bad.” -- Royce Ogle

The Message of Reconciliation

“God has entrusted to you the message of reconciliation, the good news that Jesus reconciles rebels to God.” -- Greg Gilbert and Sebastian Traeger

Understanding the Gospel and It's Implications

Why did Jesus come? He said that one of the reasons He came was to proclaim the gospel or good news? What is the gospel that He proclaimed?  What are the implications for us in light of the gospel message? What makes someone a "real" Christian? Check out this excellent teaching by Skye Jethani to find out the answers to these questions.

Here is the link to my most popular post ever which answers the question Why Should Seekers Consider the Gospel?

It Was Good News

"It was good news to men that the Second Person of the Trinity added humanity to His deity, because it meant that there really was something compatible between God and man. Man can never become God; but if God can add humanity to His deity, it demonstrates that man really is made in His image. The incarnation shows that God is not necessarily an enemy to humanity. We never read that Jesus took the nature of angels, but He did take the nature of unfallen humanity. " -- David Guzik
