Gospel instalment: 06/06/2024 Sermon Title: Kenya 2024 # 1 What is the gospel? Text: Romans 1 vs 1-7
1. Everyone in the professing Church claims to "believe in the gospel."
2. But the unfortunate thing is that what many call the gospel is not the gospel.
3. So, what has happened? Men have concocted ANOTHER Gospel, a PERVERTED VERSION.
4. But God says, He has a message called the Gospel, the good news, God's gospel.
5. But what is it? IT is good news CONCERNING HIS SON. So, this gospel CONCERNS HIS SON, not you in respect of Merit or work.
6. The gospel has at its core the IDENTITY OF THE SON OF GOD and then the WORK of the same.
7. The Son of God is a descendant of David according to the flesh and the SON OF GOD according to His eternal being, which matter was attested by His resurrection from the dead.
8. And this Son appeared to accomplish the redemption, reconciliation, justification, adoption of all the elect by way of His obedience to death.
9. And these words are VERY IMPORTANT TO THE GOSPEL TRUTH. Other words that are CRITICAL to the FOUNDATION OF THIS GOSPEL are ELECTION, PREDESTINATION, SURETY, SUBSTITUTION/REPRESENTATION, IMPUTATION and PROPITIATION (Satisfaction). These ALL go together. 10. A denial or a watering down of any of these terms renders any so-called gospel, a FALSE GOSPEL. This and more and IT IS ALL FREE! |
