Why is the Gospel Important?

February 20, 2010 by memullin

The gospel is important because it confronts us, shows us our sin, our moral helplessness, our intellectual blindness, God’s wrath against us.

The gospel assures us that God has a deep and committed love for sinners, that He desires fellowship with us, that He even went so far as to provide a substitutionary sacrifice for our sin, payment in blood, the blood of His son.

The gospel is a call.  We are summoned by God to turn from our sin and to trust in God, to give ourselves over wholly to His plan and provision – the Lamb’s way.

We respond to the gospel.  We go with God, agree with God about our sin.  We repent and are saved.
