The gospel is the good news of what God has done in Jesus Christ to save sinners and reconcile them to himself. The Bible presents this message in four parts:
God
Creator. Holy. Just. Loving.
God made all things good and created people in His image to know Him and live under His authority."
Genesis 1:1, 27; Isaiah 6:3; Psalm 96:13
Man
Fallen. Guilty. Helpless. Under Wrath.
Created in God’s image, yet fallen in sin, separated from Him, and unable to save ourselves. Apart from Christ, we stand under God’s righteous wrath and face eternal punishment.
Genesis 1:27; Romans 3:23; Ephesians 2:1–3; Matthew 25:46
Christ
Sinless. Substitutionary. Risen. Reigning.
God’s Son, who lived without sin, bore God’s wrath in our place, rose from the dead, and now reigns as Lord forever.
