What is the Gospel?

[Stunnedbygrace]

Do you understand that the man who said I am a sinner was the one who went away justified - NOT the man who called everyone ELSE sinners?

 

[MarkWilliams]

You are terribly blind to your own arrogance. You testify that you are a loving servant. You commend yourself very much.

This coming from a false accuser and hypocrite, repent I say repent and do the first works again

 

[Stunnedbygrace]

We're going to need a bigger pin...

 

[MarkWilliams]

Do you understand that the man who said I am a sinner was the one who went away justified - NOT the man who called everyone ELSE sinners?

Well, then do the wise thing and admit that you're a sinner and go thy way

 

[Stunnedbygrace]

This coming from a false accuser and hypocrite, repent I say repent and do the first works again

Do you understand that the hypocrite in the story I posted was the one who called OTHER people sinners and did not know that he was a sinner?

Do you understand that he was testifying to God about how good he was in his "prayer?"

Do you understand that you have just acted out the story on your stage by grinding your sisters face into the dust and telling her to repent while you were commending yourself that you are "a loving servant?"

 

[Stunnedbygrace]

Have you left the catholic church only to fall into more error?

 

[Stunnedbygrace]

I would almost be persuaded to tell you to go back to the catholic church - because they certainly wouldn't let you act this way without trying to correct you, would they?

That is your take in the matter, the problem is you have not understood what was said or the context it was said in. Before you jump to conclusions and make accusations make sure you get your facts right.

I disagree. I think the problem is that you are quite blind to your own lack of humility.

I can't accept "I think's", I would need to see specific Biblical offenses before I take stock. Making sweeping accusations with no specific offenses identified won't move me

 

[theanointedsinner]

we fall so short of God's glory,
compared to God's holiness, we sinned against God

so badly, we deserve hell

if we have any hope of avoiding hell at all, forgiveness offered by the Cross of Christ Jesus is necessary

no one can avoid hell except through Jesus (John 14:6)

that's the gospel

 

[Stunnedbygrace]

Nothing will move you from your belief that you are a loving servant and that every other brother in here needs to repent except for a great fall from the high pedestal you have placed yourself on.

You are one of the rare people here who accept the Gospel as it is. Most twist it to the point that it ends up being something completely different than the one the Bible describes.

The Gospel is highly offensive to false professors of faith, it doesn't leave them anything to boast about and it convicts them of their sin

OK, I will allow you to remove the little smote in my eye. Oh' by the way are you going to remove that log out of your eye so you can see how to remove mine properly.

thank you for your kind words, I don't know how to make a website, but if I can, I will glorify God with it. by the way, does anyone know how to make a website, that can share the gospel on the internet?

I'm sure you can find step by step instructions if you google the question. You will probably be disappointed with the small number of hits you would get as most folks avoid the Gospel like the plague.

Even most professing Christians find the Gospel highly offensive, they have no problem accepting the loving Jesus who gave His life for sinners but they don't like the one who is coming back to judge the world and send many into hell.

I will pray the god blesses your faithful ministry

So how is this different from the following terms in the KJB:




"The Gospel of Jesus Christ" (Mk 1:1)= kingdom of god

"The Gospel of the grace of God" (Acts 20:24) = kingdom of god

The Gospel of His Son" (Rom 1:8) = kingdom of god

"The Gospel of Christ" (Rom 1:16)= kingdom of god.

"The Gospel of God" (Rom 15:16)= kingdom of god

"The Gospel" (Mk 16:15; 1 Cor 15:1)=kingdom of god

"Our Gospel" (2 Cor 4:3)= kingdom of god

"The glorious Gospel of Christ" (2 Cor 4:4) = kingdom of god.

Enjoy as you read the new testament I guarantee you will enjoy your bible more a whole new world will be opened to you.

Parables of the Hidden Treasure and the Pearl
44 “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a treasure that a man discovered hidden in a field. In his excitement, he hid it again and sold everything (YOUR old theology) he owned to get enough money to buy the field (pay the price to follow jesus).

45 “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a merchant on the lookout for choice pearls. 46 When he discovered a pearl of great value, he sold everything he owned and bought it!

You will soon discover the hidden treasure/ the pearl what you were looking for,you thought it was Jesus but it was on his shoulders all the time.

Matthew 11:28-30 New Living Translation (NLT)
28 Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you. (the kingdom) Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke (the kingdom) is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.”


Isaiah 9:6-8 New International Version (NIV)
6 For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders. (kingdom with the keys)
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
7 Of the greatness of his government and peace
there will be no end.
He will reign on David’s throne
and over his kingdom,
establishing and upholding it
with justice and righteousness
from that time on and forever. (the kingdom is hear now) it arrived 2000 thousands years ago " that is the real good renews)
The zeal of the Lord Almighty
will accomplish this.

Matthew 24:14 New International Version (NIV)
14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony (test and see if it works) to all nations, and then the end will come.( then i Jesus will come back)

Here is a comprehensive list for the
The Various New Testament Titles of the Gospel about the Kingdom
The following list of expressions provides first the “master
definition” of the Gospel and then gives the equivalent Gospel
titles found throughout the New Testament. All evangelism in the
Bible is evangelism about the Kingdom of God as Jesus preached
it. All invitations to salvation are invitations not “to go to heaven,”
but to inherit the Kingdom of God. Following Jesus involves using
his terminology, not our own. To speak like Jesus (allowing, of
course, for translation into our mother tongues!) means to think as
he did and does.
If one combines references to “the Gospel of the Kingdom,”
“the Gospel” and “preaching” or “proclaiming,” there are some
325 references to the Gospel of the Kingdom. “Believing” in the
New Testament means believing in “the Gospel about the
Kingdom and in the name of Jesus Christ” (Acts 8:12). The next
verse (Acts 8:13) says that Simon “believed,” i.e., believed in the
Gospel of the Kingdom and the Name of Jesus. That is the
meaning of Christian faith (in Simon’s case belief did not last).
In Acts 28:24 some were persuaded by the Gospel of the
Kingdom (v. 23) and some did not believe. To believe, therefore,
in the New Testament is to be persuaded about the Kingdom of
God and Jesus.
The Kingdom of God is the key which unlocks the secret to
the teaching of Jesus and gives us knowledge of God’s Plan for
ourselves, the whole of the human race and the future of this earth.
The “parent definition” of the Gospel comes from Jesus
himself, as the model exponent of the Gospel (Heb. 2:3). Jesus
was the original herald of the Message of the Kingdom
(introduced briefly by John the Baptist, Matt. 3:2). The Gospel
comes with a specific definition. Its primary and fundamental title
appears 18 times:
The Gospel about the Kingdom of God (Matt. 3:2; 4:17, 23;
24:14; 9:35; Luke 4:43; 8:1; 9:2, 6, 11, 60; 10:9; 16:16; Acts 8:12;

For evidence of the Gospel deprived of the Kingdom see the
New Scofield Reference Bible on Revelation 14:6 and the article
“Gospel” in Unger’s Bible Dictionary.
1 “Eternal Gospel” is a mistranslation. The Gospel is not eternal; it is
Good News of the Coming Age of the Kingdom. “Aionios” in Greek
means “to do with the coming age.” “The aionios Gospel is not in
Christian language the ‘everlasting Gospel,’ but ‘the Gospel concerning
the Kingdom age’” (Nigel Turner, Ph.D., Christian Words, p. 456).
“Eternal” (“everlasting”) is thus in many passages equivalent to
“millennial” or “having to do with the age to come of the Kingdom.”

 

[so-jesus-e-deus]

What is the Gospel?

• "For I am not ashamed of the gospel: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek." (Rom 1.16).

 

[garee]

OK, I get your calling Jesus a liar, you will pay for that sin in hell unless you repent as the Gospel says you must.

You are one of those Joel Osten stooges who has been blinded by the false gospel of love and prosperity. You are in for a rude shock when you face God, He will not accept ignorance as a valid excuse for your willful sin

What will he accept other than he has paid the price and full and therefore cannot deny himself even when we do deny Him in unbelief? (no faith) according to our own will (willfully) .

Can he deny he has paid the full eternal wage? Is there limbo and then purgatory ?

He does not forgive partially as the Catholic preach and a person must suffer for his own sin willfully

2 Timothy 2:12-14 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us: If we believe not, (not acidently) yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.

 

[Stunnedbygrace]

OK, I will allow you to remove the little smote in my eye. Oh' by the way are you going to remove that log out of your eye so you can see how to remove mine properly.

And here again, you will concede, with a disdainful sniff, that you have a tiny little speck in your eye (but only because you think to do so makes you look humble)...but it is other men who have the log in their eyes.

So you are still making yourself to be better than other men.

Do you understand that the gospel is not meant to compare you to other men but is meant to pierce into your own heart and read the thoughts and intents of your own heart.

You have singlehandedly convinced me of what the op has said - that most men don't know what the gospel is and that it is all of the words that Jesus spoke...
