The Gospel Message

The is my summary of The Gospel of the good news of Jesus Christ.

We’re all going through this journey of life. For many, it may be long and fulfilling and will end peacefully surrounded by loved ones. No matter how well it goes for you, I truly believe that the only thing that matters is whether or not you have put your trust in The Saviour of The World, Jesus Christ, the sinless Son of God. Will you spend eternity in the presence of God? Here is the Gospel:

You and I and everyone else on this planet are part of a family.

We come from the original first man and woman. They and we were created by God in his image and for His own glory. However the first man and woman rebelled against God and brought on all of us the curse of both physical and spiritual death. (Genesis 1-2; Romans 5 v 12)

God’s anger now rests upon us (Romans 2 v 5) and unless He does something to save us, then the moment we die here on earth, our immortal souls will in that moment leave our body and be separated from God forever to go to a place of torment with no chance of escape. (Matthew 10 v 28)

We can do nothing to save ourselves from this fate.

The curse can only be removed by means of a perfect atoning sacrifice to be offered in our place. A sacrifice powerful enough to take away our sin – and the sins of the world.

BUT God in His mercy HAS done something to rescue us from this fate.

He sent His only Son Jesus to be born here on earth to live a perfect life among us – and this He did (John 3 v 16).

God knew in advance that some of us would choose to kill His Son and yet He allowed that to happen because Jesus was qualified to be that perfect atoning sacrifice being BOTH God AND Man.

During His ministry here on earth, Jesus explained that it was He and only He (John 14 v 6) who could lift the curse by offering His life on our behalf – and this He did.

Three days later God raised Jesus from the dead in a miraculous vindication of the testimony He had given about Himself and His purpose.

Now.

If YOU repent of your sin and believe that Jesus is who He says He is and did what He said He did, and you will acknowledge these things before others, YOU will have the curse of death removed. (1 John 1 v 9)

Instead of eternal separation from God, at the moment of death here on earth, your eternal soul will go to be with God in paradise.

Pray, and in the name of His Son, ask God the Father to grant you, by His power, true repentance from sin and true saving faith in His Son Jesus Christ as your Saviour, and from now on, the NEW Lord of your life.
