Have you ever been walking down the street? Probably just taking a stroll and someone walks up to you, telling you that what you have on is going to take you straight to hell!
How did you feel?
P. S: That question is not rhetorical. I really want to know so please send an email to gloryinspires2018@gmail.com or drop your story in the comment section.
A lot of people feel like the Gospel is about telling people what to wear, what not to wear, how to live and all of that. The Gospel is not about not wearing earrings, trousers or wearing them. It is not about wearing makeup or curling your hair. It’s not about attending particular church denominations because they’re the ‘ordained of the Lord‘ and the others are just jara. Far from it.
Humanity was disconnected from GOD as a result of sin. GOD wanted to resolve and bridge the gap that had been created. In order to do this, blood was the only payment for sin. Not just any blood, but ‘clean blood‘ so to speak.
Almost everything is cleansed by blood, according to the Law’s regulations, and there is no forgiveness without blood being shed.
Hebrews 9:22 CEB
This led to Him sending His only Son – JESUS to die for us and now we are reconciled to GOD(Jn. 3:16) .The Gospel is simply about how Christ came, died for us and resurrected and therein lies our victory.
The light of God’s love shined within us when he sent his matchless Son into the world so that we might live through him. This is love: He loved us long before we loved him . It was his love, not ours. He proved it by sending his Son to be the pleasing sacrificial offering to take away our sins.
1 John 4:9-10 TPT
That is the Gospel! So, if you’re one of those who go around dictating what people should do and not do in the name of ‘Gospel’, you should desist from it. Point people to Christ and not your denomination. Point people to the real Gospel – the good news about Christ, what he has done and how we receive it all through faith and genuine repentance from our sins. (Eph. 2:8)
The Gospel is the Power of God to save man.
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
Romans 1:16
