Gospel
The central message of the Bible is the good news about Jesus, the gopsel. Paul explained in his first letter to the Christians in Corinth:
Now I would remind you, brothers of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you—unless you believed in vain. For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures, 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 (ESV)
I would really encourage you to visit Two Ways To Live for a biblical and clear explanation of this good news and why it is important.
There are loads of faithful gospel explanations on the internet, although I’d imagine there are many that aren’t. Here are some links to what I hope are Biblical gospel outlines. Do check back, as I might be updating this page every now and then…
