What The Heck Is The Gospel Anyways???
2
Preach The Gospel!!!
  • Most Churches want their members to go out and preach the gospel.
  • After all it’s the great commission to go out and make disciples.
  • We are to preach the Gospel to not just humans but every living creature!
3
The Great Commission
  • Then having gone, disciple all nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things, whatever I commanded you. And, behold, I am with you all the days until the completion of the age. Amen.
  • (Mat 28:19-20 LITV)
4
Preach To All Creation
  • And He said to them, Going into all the world, preach the gospel to all the creation.
  • (Mar 16:15 LITV)
5
ktisis
  • G2937
  • κτίσις
  • ktisis
  • ktis'-is
  • From G2936; original formation (properly the act; by implication the thing, literally or figuratively): - building, creation, creature, ordinance.


6
Ktisis 1
  • For neither is circumcision [now] of any importance, nor uncircumcision, but [only] a new creation [the result of a new birth and a new nature in Christ Jesus, the Messiah].
  • (Gal 6:15 AMP)



7
Ktisis 2
  • But from the beginning of creation "God made them male and female." Gen. 1:27
  • (Mar 10:6 LITV)



8
Ktisis 3
  • For the creation was not willingly subjected to vanity, but through Him subjecting it, on hope;
  • (Rom 8:20 LITV)



9
Why Would We Preach to All Creation?
  • Because when Adam sinned not just man fell but all of creation!
  • For the creation was not willingly subjected to vanity, but through Him subjecting it, on hope; that also the creation will be freed from the slavery of corruption to the freedom of the glory of the children of God.
  • (Rom 8:20-21 LITV)
10
But What Is This Message We Are To Preach To All Living Creatures?
  • That if they don’t belong to the right church they’ll burn in hell forever?
  • That the Pope is the Holy Father that can save them?
  • That by pronouncing Jehovah just right and not celebrating Christmas they’ll have a heavenly hope?
  • That by Tithing they’ll prove their love to God and he’ll bless them with eternal life?
  • That by going to Church on Saturday they’re keeping the true sign of the faithful and will be accepted by God?
11
The Gospel Message
  • The word Gospel means “Good News” and in Greek is Evangellion.
  • So Evangelising is telling the world the “good news”
12
Evangelical Church
  • What do you think “Evangelical Church” means then?
  • It’s where the “Evangelical” church supposedly get’s it’s message that it’s Gospel driven.
  • But if you ask most Christians what the Gospel is they’ll give you many strange answers.
13
But What Does the Bible Say the Gospel Is?
  • As we mentioned earlier when Adam sinned the whole of creation fell.
  • for as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.
  • (1Co 15:22 LITV)


  • Because of the fall mankind suffers with death, poverty, loneliness, war, disease and all the other horrors of human life.
14
In Christ Shall All Be Made Alive
  • So the Bad News or Badspell (opposite of Gospel) is that God subjected Adam his children to suffering and death and his curse to all mankind is indiscriminate – all Adam’s children are cursed with a death sentence. Literally no one get’s out alive!
  • So if Adam is the Bad News then Jesus and his restoration of all Things is the Good News.
15
What Did We Have to Do to Suffer in Adam?
  • Just be born.
  • Did we have a choice?
  • No.
  • And Jesus – the second Adam will have the same effect in reverse.
  • In Christ – all blessings in heaven and on earth will come to all mankind indiscriminately. Just as in Adam. We didn’t have a choice to be born of the flesh and we won’t have a choice to be born of the spirit.
16
All Mankind Is Predestined to Suffer In Adam and Live in Christ!
  • Do you remember when you first find out all your loved ones will get old and die or crash or get sick? It’s very sad. That’s the Badspell! Or Bad news!
  • But hearing that the suffering is only temporary and abundant life and joy and peace and freedom is coming to all mankind soon – even today – that’s the Good News!
17
How Did We Earn Death?
  • By being born from Adam.
  • So how do we earn life? By being born in Christ. It’s that simple.
  • It’s called Grace.
  • Unfortunately death also came by grace.
  • But where sin abounds grace abounds even more.
  • All our suffering will be repaid with God plus interest by God – starting today for those believe and a little later for those that don’t.
  • But we’re all going to be restored 200%!!!
18
Grace Alone
  • The New Testament word that is usually translated "grace" is in  charis (χαρις). which literally means "that which affords joy, pleasure, delight, sweetness, charm, loveliness".
  • Shouldn’t preaching the good news result in “joy, pleasure, delight, sweetness, charm, loveliness?”
19
So Let’s See the Bible Describe the Gospel!
  • And the scroll of Isaiah the prophet was handed to Him. And unrolling the book, He found the place where it was written: "The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me. Because of this He anointed Me to proclaim the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me" to heal the brokenhearted, "to proclaim remission to captives, and to the blind to see again," to send away the ones being crushed, in remission, "to preach an acceptable year of the Lord." Isa. 61:1, 2 And rolling up the scroll, returning it to the attendant, He sat down. And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on Him. And He began to say to them, Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your ears.
  • (Luk 4:17-21 LITV)


20
How Can The Year be the Day?
  • How Can the Acceptable Year of the Lord be fulfilled in one day?
  • And what is the acceptable year of the Lord?
21
The Acceptable Year of the Lord
  • The Spirit of the Lord Jehovah is on Me, because Jehovah has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the meek. He has sent Me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to captives, and complete opening to the bound ones; to proclaim the acceptable year of Jehovah, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn; to appoint to those who mourn in Zion, to give them beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, the mantle of praise instead of the spirit of infirmity, so that one calls them trees of righteousness, the planting of Jehovah, in order to beautify Himself. And they shall build old ruins; they shall raise up former desolations; and they shall restore the waste cities, ruins of generations and generations. And foreigners shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of strangers shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers. (Isa 61:1-11 LITV)
22
Acceptable Year of the Lord
  • But you shall be called, Priests of Jehovah; it will be said of you, Ministers of our God. You shall eat the wealth of the nations, and you shall revel in their glory. Instead of your shame and disgrace, double. They rejoice in their portion; for they shall possess a second time in their land; everlasting joy shall be theirs. For I, Jehovah, love judgment, hating plunder in burnt offering. And I will give their work in truth; and I will cut an everlasting covenant for them.
    (Isa 61:1-11 LITV)
23
Acceptable Year of the Lord
  • And their seed shall be known among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples; all who see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed that Jehovah has blessed. Rejoicing I will rejoice in Jehovah. My soul shall be joyful in my God. For He clothed me with garments of salvation; He put on me the robe of righteousness, even as a bridegroom dons as a priest his head-dress, and as a bride wears her ornaments. For as the earth comes out with her buds, and as a garden causes that which is sown to grow, so the Lord Jehovah will make righteousness and praise to grow before all the nations. (Isa 61:1-11 LITV)
24
Read Psalm 22
  • All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn back to Jehovah; and all the families of the nations shall worship before You. For the kingdom is Jehovah's; and He is the ruler among the nations.
  • (Psa 22:27-28 LITV)



25
It’s the Year of Jubilee
  • And you shall let a ram's horn resound, a signal in the seventh month, in the tenth of the month; in the day of atonement, let a ram's horn pass throughout all your land; and you shall make the fiftieth year holy, one year. And you shall proclaim liberty in the land to those living in it; it shall be a jubilee to you. And you shall return every man to his possession; yea, you shall turn back each to his family. It is a jubilee, the fiftieth year; it is a year to you. You shall not sow, nor reap that which grows of itself, nor gather from its unkept vines; for it is a jubilee, it is holy to you; you shall eat its increase out of the field. In the year of jubilee you shall return each one to his possession. (Lev 25:9-13 LITV)
26
The Gospel and Liberty
  • The Gospel is a proclamation of liberty from the curse of Adam!
27
A Day Is A Year
  • Jesus proclaimed the Jubilee had been fulfilled in a day.
  • Every day in which a person is led by the Spirit of God in love towards God and Man is an ACCEPTABLE day/year to the Lord!
  • Every day can be our Jubilee in Christ.
  • But for those who don’t believe it’s another die of suffering in Adam!
28
Acceptable Day
  • Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD? Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh? Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy rereward. Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity; And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noonday:
  • (Isa 58:5-10 KJV)



29
The Good News Is Freedom!
  • The Bondage we were born into in Adam is the Bad news!
  • The Freedom mankind has been born into in Christ is the Good News!
  • The good News is that liberty awaits us starting today for all who put their faith in Christ and a little bit later for those who wait!
30
It’s not Just Mystical!
  • The Same way that being born of Adam brought disease, poverty, and bondage.
  • Being born of the Spirit in Christ will undo all that evil because wherever the Kingdom of God is darkness must flee.
  • Instead of horror people can have liberty, joy, peace and a new family in Christ!
  • With No Bondage! The gospel is liberty!
31
How Did Paul Preach The Gospel?
  • For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
  • (1Co 15:3 KJV)
  • The good news isn’t just that Christ died and rose again.
  • The good news for us is that the suffering we’ve been subjected to is temporary and for a good cause. We’ll be repaid in joy and liberty soon!
32
That’s It!
  • Christ died for our sins.
  • They’re paid for in full. If we keep sinning that just means our Adamic nature is still alive and kicking!
  • God’s plague on us through Adam has been reversed in Christ.
  • The Good news is liberty from our bondage handed down to us by Adam!
  • So Liberty is available now for those that believe and a little bit later for those that don’t yet!
33
This is the Good News
  • For God did not send His Son to the world that he may judge the world, but that the world may be saved through him;
  • (Joh 3:17 YLT)
  • Now that’s good news. Not that your mother is in a frying pan in hell being cooked in a stew for an obese demon to eat her because she didn’t tithe!
34
God Did All The Work Already!
  • For by grace ye are saved through faith: and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast. Ephesians 2:8-9 (KJV)
35
Just Believe!
  • And even as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up,
  • (Joh 3:14 LITV)


  • and I, if I may be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto myself.' And this he said signifying by what death he was about to die;
  • (Joh 12:32-33 YLT)
36
Was Jesus Lifted Up?
  • Then he will draw “helkuo” all men to himself.
  • It doesn’t say he will “try” but “he will”.
  • Everyone is coming home! Eventually. In Christ.
