The GOSPEL OF CHRIST is the PREACHING OF THE CROSS of the POWER OF GOD unto SALVATION to EVERY ONE WHO BELIEVES IN JESUS CHRIST:
“[THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH,
BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE]” (John 3:15).
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only
begotten Son, that [WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE
EVERLASTING LIFE]. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the
world; but that the world through him might be saved. [HE THAT BELIEVETH ON HIM
IS NOT CONDEMNED]: but [HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT IS CONDEMNED ALREADY], because he
hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:16-18).
We echo the words spoken by the Apostle Paul, who
said:
“[FOR WE PREACH NOT OURSELVES, BUT CHRIST JESUS THE
LORD]; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake. For God, who commanded the
light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of
the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ” (2 Corinthians
4:5-6).
“For the [PREACHING OF THE CROSS] is to them that
[PERISH FOOLISHNESS]; but unto us which are [SAVED] it is the [POWER OF GOD]”
(1 Corinthians 1:18).
“[FOR I AM NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST: FOR IT
IS THE POWER OF GOD UNTO SALVATION TO EVERY ONE THAT BELIEVETH]; to the Jew
first, and also to the Greek” (Romans 1:16).
“[LOOKING UNTO JESUS THE AUTHOR AND FINISHER OF OUR
FAITH]; [WHO FOR THE JOY] that was set before him [ENDURED THE CROSS],
despising the shame, [AND IS SET DOWN AT THE RIGHT HAND OF THE THRONE OF GOD]”
(Hebrews 12:2).
“[THAT YOUR FAITH] should not stand in the wisdom of
men, but in the power of God” (1 Corinthians 2:5).
“For ye are all the children of God by [FAITH IN
CHRIST JESUS]” (Galatians 3:24).
“But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy
mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; [THAT IF
THOU SHALT CONFESS WITH THY MOUTH THE LORD JESUS, AND SHALT BELIEVE IN THINE
HEART THAT GOD HATH RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD, THOU SHALT BE SAVED]. For [WITH
THE HEART MAN BELIEVETH UNTO RIGHTEOUSNESS]; and [WITH THE MOUTH CONFESSION IS
MADE UNTO SALVATION]” (Romans 10:8-10).
“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of
God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen” (2 Corinthians
13:14).
