GOSPEL

Well in an earlier I stated I was going to go through what G.O.S.P.E.L. stands for. This is just another way of sharing the Gospel or The Good News of Jesus Christ with your family and Friends.

God created us to be with Him.

Our sins separate us from God.

Sins cannot be removed by good deeds.

Paying the price for sin Jesus died and rose again!

Everyone who trust in Him only will have eternal life.

Life that is eternal means we will be with Jesus forever.

Now what does all that mean?

G: God created us to be with Him. Genesis 1:27 says So God created man in His own image; He created him in the image of God; He created them male and female. This means that God wants us to be with Him and to trust in him with our whole hearts. We are created for a reason to have a relationship with Him.

O: Our sins separate us from God. Ecclesiastes 7:20 says There is not anyone one earth who does only what is right and never sin. This mean everything was perfect in the beginning until Adam and Eve sinned. Then the world was not perfect anymore and now everyone is a sinner. We all fall short of the glory of God.

S: Sins cannot be removed by God deeds. Ephesians 2:8-9 says God's grace has saved you because of your faith in Christ. Your salvation doesn't come from anything you do. It is God's gift. It is not based on anything you have done. No one can brag about earning it. We cannot do anything to correct what we have done wrong. Doing something good cannot remove that sin. Imagine it like a burned cake. We put icing on it to cover up the burns but on the inside of the cake it is still burned. This is kind of like sins they cannot be covered up they are always there.

P: Paying the price for sin Jesus died and rose again. Romans 5:8 says but here is how God has shown his love for us. While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Jesus Christ came on this earth and he was perfect. But there sin in this world. Jesus was beaten and Jesus could have just got down and did not shed his blood for us. But Christ loved us and shed is blood so our sins can be forgiven in past, present, and future. But then after 3 days he rose again. This is so amazing to know he came back and now is in heaven waiting but one day Jesus will come back on this earth.

Think about this. If you were walking in the street and a truck was coming full speed at you and was going to hit you. Then a total stranger jumps into the road and pushes you out of the road and save you. That stranger took the impacted and died for you. That is what Jesus did for you and me.

E: Everyone who trust in Him alone has eternal life. John 3:36 says Anyone who believes in the Son has eternal life. Anyone who says no to the Son will not have life. God's anger remains on him. This means that if we can trust in Jesus we can spend eternity with Him forever. Is all Jesus wants from us is to trust in Him alone and to put our faith in Jesus Christ. He wants us to serve him and give him glory and honor and praise. Now after done this no one said life was going to be easy. Because it is not your life is a test. Life is never going to be easy. But is all he wants is for us to trust in him and eternal life with him.

L: Life that is eternal means we will be with Jesus forever. Revelations 22:3-5 there will no longer be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city. God's servants will serve him. They will see his face. His name will be on their foreheads. There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun. The Lord God will give them light. They will rule forever and ever. This means that life will be eternal and we will spend the rest of our lives with Jesus. This does not happen after we die. It starts the moment you trust in Jesus.

I do not know you heart. But this only can come from the heart. I do not if you are saved are not. It is only between you and God. Jesus is the only way to get to Heaven. Jesus said in John 14: 6 I am the way the truth and the life no one can come to the Father except through me. He wants you. He stands there with his arm out waiting for you and He loves you.

Christ is coming back someday we do not when. It could be today, tomorrow or years from now. God has given us a chance to know him and have a personal relationship because he loves you and me.

Think about it. If you were to die today, where would you go?

Tomorrow could be too late you never know. My prayer is that you will come to know Christ before it is too late.
