    "If I tell you that if you come to Jesus and you can get meaning to your life ,peace..etc.but that is not the gospel.The gospel is about Jesus..."

    “The proclamation of the person and work of Jesus Christ plus how the benefits of that work can be appropriated to us by faith and faith alone”
    “The message about Jesus”
    Read 1 Corinthians 15 for the most basic definition and read Romans for more contextual depth regarding the gospel.

      Dd S What a "healthy" response! We Christians believe the gospel which was predicted by the Jewish prophets. When that Arab, perhaps Muslim, boy found the Dead Sea Scroĺl I am sure he and some Christians didnt manipulate the ancient scoĺl of Isaiah!!! Who predicted the gospel being preached, see Isaiah 52:7 in our English translations "How beautiful are the feet..."

    The gospel should be easily recognisable to Jesus, His disciples, and the Early Church.
    I’m no expert, but I think the gospel of the kingdom of God and of Christ is rather something like this:
    God’s kingdom is coming soon, and therefore He is calling all men everywhere to turn from their evil works and turn to Him, and He will save them and give them new life now and eternal life in His kingdom.
    We know that this life is in the Man Jesus Christ, His Son, whom He sent into the world over 2000 years ago. We have this assurance because God also raised Him from the dead after He was crucified and buried for three days, after which He ascended to heaven to sit at the right hand of God, where God has exalted Him to be both Lord and Saviour over all.
    From heaven, He will return one day as Judge to raise all the dead and righteously judge every single person according to his own deeds. He will cast the wicked into hell, but He will give eternal life to all the righteous, and reign as King with them in God’s kingdom on the earth.
    God therefore commands everyone to turn from his sins and be baptised, believing in this Jesus, and he will receive forgiveness of sins and new life now, and eternal life in the kingdom of God. All are being invited today to be part of God’s kingdom!

      Lies. The gospel means “good news”. The gospel is the proclamation of who Jesus is and what He did for His elect only. The entire Bible (Old testament and New Testament) foreshadows and proclaims who Jesus is and what He did for His elect only (John 5:39, Luke 24:44).
      Jesus is the Son of God (John 3:16), fully God and fully man (John 1:1 & 1:14) and second person in the Trinity (Matthew 3:16-17).
      The gospel is God’s testimony concerning Jesus as revealed in the Holy Scriptures by the Holy Spirit which proclaims how Jesus the Christ (John 1:41, Matthew 16:16) was born of a virgin (Matthew 1:23) and born under the law to redeem His elect who were under the law and save His elect from their sins (Matthew 1:21, Galatians 4:4).
      God’s elect /sheep are the people past, present and future from every tribe, tongue and nation God actively chose to redeem/ justify/save based on Christ. God chose in Christ before the foundation of the world was laid according to the good pleasure of His will for His glory (Revelations 5:9, Ephesians 1:4-5). God actively created and chose a people from every tribe, tongue and nation before they were born for salvation whom God has always loved because of Christ and only Christ (Romans 8). God’s elect are vessels of mercy prepared beforehand for glory to make known the riches of His glory (Romans 9). God’s elect/sheep are God’s chosen vessels of mercy that are Jews and Gentiles because of Christ. (John 10, Romans 9:23-26, Hosea 2:23)
      God is Holy (Isaiah 6:3). God’s law is holy and good (Romans 7:12). The law of God demands perfection in word, thought, and deed at all times (James 2:10). The law was given through Moses (John 1:17). The law condemned all mankind and brought knowledge of sin (Romans 3:19-20). All people are under sin and none are righteous (Romans 3:9-18). Sin entered the world through Adam and death through sin and death spread to all mankind because all sinned. (Romans 5:12-13).
      Jesus Christ is the Passover lamb without blemish (1 Peter 1:19) for His elect by God’s sovereign grace (1 Corinthians 5:7). Just as the Israelites were released from Egypt after the death of the firstborn (Exodus 11-13) - Jesus Christ the firstborn of all creation (Colossians 1:15) justified all His elect at the cross from the wrath of God(Romans 5:9-11). Jesus willingly went to the cross (Philippians 2:8) and offered one sacrifice for all time for His elect He sanctified (Hebrews 10:11-14) as their representative and High priest. Jesus was crucified for the elect’s sin and raised for their justification (Romans 4:25). It pleased God the Father to crush His only begotten Son( Isaiah 53:10) and God the Father accepted Jesus’ perfect sacrifice on behalf of His sheep( Acts 2:23) . Jesus paid His elect’s sin debt and there is now no condemnation for those who are married to Christ (Romans 7-8).
      By Christ’s knowledge He justified all His elect (Isaiah 53:11) and finished His mission (John 19:30). All of God’s sheep will believe God’s testimony concerning Christ because Jesus justified them by His perfect sacrifice on the cross. Not one sheep Jesus died for will perish. Jesus is the good shepherd. Faith(believing God’s testimony concerning Jesus) is the fruit of what Jesus accomplished for His sheep. God’s sheep are righteous before God by the imputed righteousness of Christ provided at the cross as prophesied in Psalm 32 and fulfilled in John 19. All Jesus died for are regenerated at God’s appointed time to believe God’s testimony concerning Christ on who Christ is and what He did at the cross( Acts 13:48).

    Question ! Where does most Christians interpretation of what is called the old testament , and new testament comes from ? Mostly from the early fathers of Rome ; which will includes what will become the Romans Catholic church . Remember , the council of nicea is responsible for most of what was cannon in the new testament . The early followers are the Clement , Polycarp , Irenaus , Ignatius , Tertullian , etc... ; which some may have learned from the apostles and other Israelites ; but there was also separation from these teachers ; that later developed errors in their understanding of the words that they were being taught . In 49 A.D. . emperor Claudius expelled all the Jews from Rome ; which did not return until Claudius death in 54 A.D. . The early Christians of Rome were learning about the teaching of Jesus Christ from the apostles , and other Israeltes .
    The apostle Paul mention this in Acts 18:1-2 , " 1.After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth;2And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that CLAUDIUS had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them " .
    When the Israelites were expelled ,the only means for the Christians to continue in this teaching , were by reading the epistles ,mostly through the apostle Paul writings . The ones who were learning from the Jews , were now the teachers for others . Remember the quote by the apostle Peter , about some of Paul's epistles and other scriptures ?
    2 PETER 3:15-16 , " 15.And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;16As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction " .
    When the Israelites were allowed to return to Rome after Claudius death in 54 A.D. , they encountered a different in the understanding of some doctrines ; which included ( 1.) CIRCUMCISION OF FLESH & CIRCUMCISION OF HEART , ( 2.) ESTEEMETH A DAY TO THE LORD ; SABBATH DAY , ( 3.) ROMANS 6:14 , NOT UNDER THE LAW , BUT UNDER GRACE , ETC... ; Which are some of the writings of Paul .
    The circumcision of the flesh of foreskin is an everlasting covenant given to Abraham and his household , and the strangers purchased by money ; and that money is the blood of Christ ( Acts 20:28 ) . The circumcision of heart for sin is a sin sacrifice of atonement ; which you go through , if you break the laws/commandments of the Father ; which includes the circumcision of flesh of foreskin .
    The Sabbath day is part of the covenant of the Father ; with the one's in the covenant with him . This is the day he tells you to remember , and keep holy . You esteemeth a day to God by praying and fasting ( Isaiah 58 ) ; but some do it on one day , and others on another day ; some do it by fasting , and others not by fasting . This hast nothing to do with the Sabbath day being done away with .
    Romans 6:14 , " 14.For sin shall not have dominion over you : for ye are not under the law , but under grace " . The law that Paul is talking about is a sin sacrifice of atonement for your sins through works , for the flesh/body ; which is the blood of the animals and oblations , or the law of animal sacrifice . The grace is the sin sacrifice of atonement for your sins through faith , for the heart/spirit ; which is the blood of Christ through faith , or the law of Christ . The laws/commandments/intructions ; which includes the covenants of the Father , is what put you in sin , if you do not keep them ; but to redeem you requires a sin sacrifice of atonement through works ( for the body/flesh ) ; and a sin sacrifice of atonement through faith ( for the heart/spirit ) . We serve the Father by faith of the heart , not works of the flesh ( Romans 3:27-28 ) .
    From not understanding these doctrines , many false doctrines have come over the many centuries ; once saved always saved ; rapture ; Jesus died on good friday , and rosed on easter sunday ; you can eat anything you want , just pray over it ; trinity , one God in three persons ; when you die you go to heaven or hell ; when Jesus returns , all will be judged , no 1000 year reign of Christ , etc.... .
    The gospel is the teaching of Jesus Christ ; of the words that the Father would put in his mouth .
    ( Deuteronomy 18:15-19 , " 15.The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken;
    16According to all that thou desiredst of the LORD thy God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of the LORD my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I die not.
    17And the LORD said unto me, They have well spoken that which they have spoken.
    18I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.
    19And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him " ) .
    These words will get you salvation , or everlasting life in the Father's kingdom .
    MARK 1:14-15 , " 14.Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
    15And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel " .
    YOU MUST REPENT OF YOUR SINS WITH A SORROWFUL HEART ( MIND ) LIKE KING DAVID , THEN BELIEVE BY OBEDIENCE ; WHICH IS TO START OBEYING THE COMMANDMENTS OF YOUR MEDIATOR JESUS CHRIST ; WHICH HE RECEIVES THEM FROM THE FATHER .
    SHALOM !
