What is the Gospel?
What is the Gospel? Euangelion = gospel, meaning a better life has come. The Gospel should take your breath away! Let’s look deeply at the Good News at work in the midst of the bad news we experience in this life. Darkness is real, but light is breaking in! Keep looking because there’s more than meets the eye. As we journey through the book of Mark, a discipleship manual, Jesus says, “Come follow me.” Pastor Mike Patz opens Mark chapter 1:14-15, asking, “What is the Gospel?” Is the gospel you’re believing in the good advice, or the Good News? Jesus is in Galilee, bringing the Good News to the nations. We have been called into this Kingdom! Religion says: do. Try harder. Be better. Clean yourself up. Keep the rules. Make yourself acceptable. Work your way to God. Strive. There are many gospels, but the true Gospel is our God reigns! There is healing to the brokenhearted, freedom to the captives, comfort to those who mourn. The Gospel is the Good News that in Jesus, God’s Kingdom has come, and because of Jesus, we can get in. Repent and believe the Gospel!
