The Gospel

Good News

The Gospel of Jesus Christ — the most important message you will ever read.

First, the Bad News

On Judgment Day every thought, word, and deed will be exposed. — Hebrews 4:13

There is no one who is good (Romans 3:10). All will be guilty of lying, stealing and more. Nothing will be hidden from the everlasting to everlasting God who knows all things. The penalty for sin is eternal punishment in Hell.

When we look at ourselves in the mirror of God's law we see that God views lust as adultery (Matthew 5:28), hatred as murder (1 John 3:15). We see our sin in all its ugliness and realize that there is nothing we can do to remedy it.

The bad news is the law cannot save us.

The Good News

God so loved the world that He gave His only Son that whoever believes in Him will not die but have Eternal Life. — John 3:16

The word "Gospel" means good news. Jesus came from Heaven as God in the flesh, born of a Virgin and went to the cross laying down his own life willingly and then taking it back up again three days later defeating death.

This Jesus, the sinless Lamb of God, took the punishment for the sins of his people upon Himself dying on the cross (2 Corinthians 5:21) and then rising from the dead (1 Corinthians 15:1-4). Fully God and fully man, Jesus is the only mediator between God and man (1 Timothy 2:5) to save sinners and bring them safely into the kingdom of Heaven.

The law teaches us (Romans 3:20, 7:13; Galatians 3:24) not to trust in our own goodness but to trust by grace through faith in the goodness of Jesus alone for salvation (Ephesians 2:8-9; Romans 10:4).

Acts 17:30–31

God Commands All Men Everywhere to Repent

The more we see the depth of our sin the more we realize the extent of God's love to save us making grace truly amazing (Romans 2:4, 5:8). God therefore commands all men everywhere to repent and put their faith and trust in Jesus alone to save them. There is no other way (John 14:6), there is no other name (Acts 4:12). No amount of good works will get anyone to heaven (Isaiah 64:6).

Do Not Wait Another Moment

Repent and trust in Him alone today. He will not turn away any who turn to him. However, to die in sin apart from God's complete and undeserved mercy will bring a fearful day of wrath, judgment and a destination of Hell (Revelation 21:8).

Don't wait another moment. You may not have tomorrow. Call on the Lord while he is near. Surrender all to the Savior for He is worthy and this day may be your last. There is no other way.

Please repent and trust in the true Jesus. He is merciful to save.

Amazing Grace

by John Newton | CCLI Copyright License #11422915

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils, and snares,
I have already come;
'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promised good to me,
His Word my hope secures;
He will my Shield and Portion be,
As long as life endures.

Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who called me here below,
Will be forever mine.

When we've been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we'd first begun.
