The Gospel

We call ourselves a ‘Gospel Hall’. What is the ‘Gospel’ that we want everyone to hear about? Simply put, ‘gospel’ means ‘good news’ and this is what it is all about.

God Created a Good World

When God made the world, there was nothing bad or sinful about it. He said it was ‘very good’
(Genesis 1:31)

Humans Have Rebelled Against This Good God

God cared for us and wanted us to love Him. Instead, our ancestors Adam and Eve rebelled against God
(Genesis 2 and 3).
God ordered that as punishment, every human being must be separated from Him and die
(Genesis 3:19)

God Loves Us

While God issued this punishment, He does not want us to die and spend forever away from His presence (in hell). He would rather that we turn from our sins and have a close relationship with Him”.(Proverbs 28:13)

God Must Punish Sin

God is entirely just. Like any good judge, He must punish disobedience. The question is: how can God both love us and carry out punishment against our sin? (John 3:16).

God Intervened to Take The Punishment

God addressed this issue by sending His own Son (the Lord Jesus Christ), who is fully God, to die for us (Romans 8:3; 1 John 4:14).
He punished His Son on the cross in the place of the guilty (2 Corinthians 5:21).
God was so pleased with His Son, that three days after He died, He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His side, where He now reigns (1 Corinthians 15:3-4).

God Offers Salvation and Forgiveness to All

Because the Lord Jesus Christ satisfied God’s demands against us, God is now able to forgive sinners and welcome them into a relationship with Him (Romans 3:26).
To experience this forgiveness and salvation, we must trust in the Lord Jesus Christ
because of the work that He accomplished for us on the cross (Acts 16:31; Romans 3:22)
We must turn from our rebellion and submit our lives to the authority of the one who died for us.

God Promises to Save All Who Trust in The Lord Jesus Christ

To all who trust in the Lord Jesus Christ for their salvation and submit their lives to His authority, He promises to give them His Spirit (Romans 8:9), give them a new heart (Ezekiel 36:26), forgive their sins (Acts 10:43), make them children of God (John 1:12) and completely save them until they arrive in God’s presence (Romans 8:29-30).
 
This is the gospel that we want everyone to know.
