The Gospel
March 9, 2010
God promised. From the beginning of our race. From the moment of the fall. A promise to get us back home. By sending his Son. Who died for our sin. Who gave us new life. Life that comes from the power of a restored heart. Restored to relationship with God.
This is the power of the gospel. To change lives. Restoring hope where there was nothing we could do to save ourselves. Giving freedom where there was bondage to sin and death. Opening a door from our heart to the heart of God who alone is goodness and life.
So now we live. For the first time. (This is the gospel). By holding onto God. (This is faith). It begins by thirsting for something more. More than the answers your hearing from the world.
