Good News

     What is the Gospel message? If someone asked you how to receive Jesus would you know what to say? We know it is a gift. We know He died for us. In Paul’s letter to the Corinthians there is a clear message for us to share.

By this Gospel you are saved if you hold firmly to the words I preached to you. Otherwise you have believed in vain. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance-that Christ died for us according to the Scriptures, that He was buried, that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures.  1 Corinthians 15:2-4

    Believe that Jesus is Lord of all, that He sacrificed Himself on a cross for our sins, that He was buried and rose again. That’s it. Ask Him for forgiveness, turn from your sins and accept His free gift. It is hard to believe many will turn away this offer. Jesus suffered for you and for me. He suffered more than any of us. He moved from glory to be one of us.

Share the good news. He does not want to lose one.

Jesus,
Your good news brings tidings of great joy. We want to sprinkle seeds of hope to others. Let that be our greatest desire until we reach heaven.
Amen
