The Gospel

“And there they preached the gospel” (Acts 14:7).

The gospel has been faithfully preached by many, since the early days of Christianity. The following will give some of the characteristics of the gospel and its results:

The gospel is good news:

“How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things”
(Romans 10:15).

The gospel concerns the Lord Jesus:

“The gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God” (Mark 1:1).

The gospel is for all:

“And He said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature” (Mark 16:15).

The gospel is powerful:

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth” (Romans 1:16).

The gospel is to be believed:

“Repent ye, and believe the gospel” (Mark 1:15).
