THE TRUTH OF THE GOSPEL OF

THE GOSPEL
JESUS CHRIST
In Mark 1:15 Jesus
commanded, "repent and
believe in the gospel." But
what is the true gospel?

The true gospel is the

message Jesus taught. The
word "gospel" is an old
English word meaning "good
news." This good news about
Jesus is expressed clearly in
Every person except Jesus has
sinned (Romans 3:23), and
this sin is deserving of death,
which includes eternal
separation from God (Romans
6:23). Through the death of
Jesus on the cross, we have a
perfect substitute for our sins.
When we place our faith in
Him, our sins are forgiven (1
John 2:12), and we receive

takes place in the life of the
person changed by the
gospel: "Though you have not

rejoice with joy that is
inexpressible and filled with
glory, obtaining the outcome
of your faith, the salvation of

THE GOSPEL
For among the first things I
passed on to you
was what I also received,
namely this: the Messiah died
for our sins, in accordance
with what the Tanakh says;
and he was buried; and he
was raised on the third day, in
accordance with what the
Tanakh says; and he was seen
by Kefa, then by the Twelve;

THE TRUTH ABOUT SIN
THE GOSPEL
Sin is a difficult topic to
discuss theologically because
the same word in English
refers to several different
states. In its most basic form,
sin is a transgression of law
and rebellion against God. Sin
is any action that harms the
relationship we have with God
and/or another person. It is
choosing to act in a way that
Sin entered the world when
Adam ate from the tree God
had prohibited. We are now
spiritually sinful because of
the "sin nature" we inherited
from Adam. We are born with
the nature of sin and a natural
tendency to sin. We are born
with the inclination to reject
God. Because of our identity
as descendents of Adam, we
Since all sin is the rejection of
God, His authority, and His
preference, sin automatically
excludes us from His
presence. But forgivness of
sin, as well as grace and
peace and eternal life in
paradise are only found in
God. Freedom from the grasp
of sin is only found in God.
Our inherited sin nature, our
Adam's imputed sin, we
receive Christ's imputed
righteousness (2 Corinthians
5:21)—we choose another
team to identify with. As the
Holy Spirit indwells us, the sin
nature loses its grasp, and we
are no longer its slave. And
when we commit individual
acts of sin, we are authorized
to approach the throne of
THE TRUTH ABOUT SIN NATURE
THE GOSPEL
The sin nature is that part of
human beings that impels us
to commit sin. The Bible
teaches that we have a sin
nature. Not only do we
commit sin, but it is our
nature to do so. This teaching
is in contrast to that of many
religious movements that
deny original sin or total
depravity. The sin nature is
When God created Adam and
Eve in the Garden of Eden, He
called them "good" along with
the rest of His creation. They
had no sin. However, their
eating of the forbidden fruit
had a devastating spiritual
effect. Adam and Eve's
children did not follow the
"good" creation of God; in
fact, the first child mentioned
In Psalm 51:5, David says,
"Behold, I was brought forth
in iniquity, and in sin did my
mother conceive me." David
saw himself as a man whose
sinful parents had brought
forth a sinful child. David
recognized that he possessed
a nature that would sin and
fall short of God's glory
(Romans 3:23). David's son
The prophet Jeremiah also
comments on the sin nature:
"The heart is deceitful above
all things, and desperately
sick; who can understand it?"
(Jeremiah 17:9). Isaiah says,
"We have all become like one
who is unclean, and all our
righteous deeds are like a
polluted garment. We all fade
like a leaf, and our iniquities,
The book of Romans offers the
most comprehensive look at
the human condition. In
Romans 5:12, Paul writes,
"Therefore, just as sin came
into the world through one
man, and death through sin,
and so death spread to all
men because all sinned."
Adam's sin started it all, and
now we are all sinners. Those
The unfortunate result of our
sin nature is that we sin.
Being sinners by nature, we
cannot help but sin. These
sins separate us from the
perfect, sinless God. Yet God
has provided a way to receive
forgiveness through Jesus
Christ. Jesus spoke of
salvation as being "born
again." He told Nicodemus,
Only Christ can overcome the
sin nature within us. When a
person trusts in Christ for
salvation, he or she receives a
new nature. The "natural
man" becomes spiritual (see 1
Corinthians 2:14). Believers
"have put on the new self,
which is being renewed in
knowledge after the image of
its creator" (Colossians 3:10).
For if we have been united
with him in a death like his,
we will also be united with
him in a resurrection like his.

JUDGEMENT TO COME
There are many passages,
especially in the Old Testament
Prophets, where God
pronounces judgement over a
specific region or people group,
but that is different from the
final judgement that is to come.
There are a few different
phases of God's final judgment
on humanity. The term

talk about the Great White

Judgement, or Judgment Day, is
described in detail in
Revelation: "Then I saw a great
white throne and him who was
seated on it. From his presence
earth and sky fled away, and no
place was found for them. And I
saw the dead, great and small,
standing before the throne, and
books were opened. Then
another book was opened,

who were in it, Death and Hades
gave up the dead who were in
them, and they were judged,
each one of them, according to
what they had done. Then
Death and Hades were thrown
into the lake of fire. This is the
second death, the lake of fire.
And if anyone's name was not
found written in the book of
life, he was thrown into the lake
