Stand On The Gospel

Scripture Reading

Ephesians 6:15 “and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace;”

The Gospel saves

The Gospel is the good news

The death, burial, and ressurection

The result there of

John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”

The Gospel is not only the death, burial, and ressurection, but the Word of God as a result thereof.

The entire Word of God is the Gospel in a sense!

The Gospels - death, burial, and ressurection

The Epistles - the life we live on account of what Jesus did

The Gospel saves and because it has saved us, we stand on it.

Romans 1:16 “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.”

Romans 1:17 “For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.””

The Gospel Saves

Ephesians 6:15 “and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace;”

Isaiah 52:7 “How beautiful upon the mountains Are the feet of him who brings good news, Who proclaims peace, Who brings glad tidings of good things, Who proclaims salvation, Who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!””

shod - tie underneath

The Gospel Makes Us Bold

Ephesians 6:15 “and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace;”

Acts 20:22–24 “And see, now I go bound in the spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that will happen to me there, except that the Holy Spirit testifies in every city, saying that chains and tribulations await me. But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.”

The Gospel Is The Power Of God To Save

Matthew 28:18–20 “And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.”

John 14:27 “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”

John 16:33 “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.””
