For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. (Romans 1:16)
Gospel means good news. It was not originally a religious word, but meant good news which makes people happy and excited.
If what you have heard about Jesus Christ does not make you happy and excited, then you have not yet truly heard and understood the Gospel as it is meant to be understood. The basic outline is that Jesus of Nazareth, who was God in a human body, took your place in judgment, paying the penalty for all your sins, and gave you the blessing He deserved because of His perfect sinless life. God, the Creator, and Sustainer of the universe, loves you
enough to die for you. That's good news! Jesus took what you deserved, and gave you what He deserved!
That's good news! And this is not limited to just you. Jesus died for all mankind. Deliverance from sin, its effects and penalty is available to anyone and everyone who will believe and receive Jesus Christ as Lord.
Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don't believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don't understand this message about the good news, for through Adam was sin introduced into the world and through the Messiah and his blood was hope for all man introduced into the world. Will you accept the good news, will accept the free gift that the Heavenly Father has too offer to you???
A man attempting to daily die to himself and become the true servant of the Lord and not his flesh.
