The Gospel is the most important message in the world in all history. If a person is a Christian and does not know that the Gospel is, they need to start seriously considering their dedication to God Himself.
The Gospel message may be stated in many ways. But those ways should include the facts that Jesus died for our sins, He was resurrected, and promises us to resurrect us. By believing in Jesus Christ as Lord, we are set free from the bondage of death, the eventuality of Hell, and confident that the grave has no claim on us in eternity.
What Jesus brought us is life, light, and peace with God. He will forgive our sins, and take away our sinful nature.
Anywhere we preach the Gospel message, we were told by Him to tell that a woman came and used valuable ointment on his feet and anointed him for his burial. She was sorry for her sins so much that she did this in front of all people who were present, in selfless appreciation to the Gospel message and the one who brought it.
Out of all the room, even with disciples present who struggled with the idea that Jesus would be killed, who had been with him a long time, she understood what He said. That is what repentance, true repentance will do for you in your relationship with God: It clears the sinning self away for God to speak clearly this relationship that God has for those who trust him.
The Gospel brings a sinning evil man to repentance, and creates a new creature in Christ Jesus, who gives the Holy Spirit to those who trust Him. The Holy Spirit acts as a counter balance to the sinful nature, and begins to make it possible for us to react according to God's will.

The term “gospel” literally means “good news.” The announcement that “the kingdom of the heavens has drawn near” was indeed good news for the Jews. They were chafing under the distasteful yoke of Rome as well as under the harsh yoke their religious leaders had fastened upon them, not to say anything about the still heavier yoke that they, in common with all mankind, had to bear because of father Adam’s transgression.—Matt. 4:17. That the kingdom of the heavens was at hand meant that the King, the Messiah, was at hand. Ever since man’s fall into sin Jehovah God had been giving men of good will toward him--- hope of a deliverer.
At the core of this good news is the story of Jesus of Nazareth. You will agree that the most prevalent history is that of Jesus who has influenced man's history more than any other personality. His story has permeated and enveloped all human society. All prohecies pointed to this Jesus and the good news about this first-begotten son of God and the first born of all creation---embellishes truths which cannot be measured by time. Intellectuals, non-intellectuals, educated, non-educated, the rich, the poor, the disadvantaged and the priviledged ---all have access to this redeemer who is the only mediator between us and His Father, Jehovah God.

This is the Good News brought to us by the God through His only-begotten son, our Lord Jesus Christ. This news is the greatest news in the entire world because it explains to us humanity on how God really loves us and how He offered His son to save us from sin.
Another definition of this word is a great guide to have a life of sanctity and faith through the great example of Jesus Christ himself. It is a way of imitation with Christ.
One message of the Gospel that is said by Christ is this- "THERE IS NO LOVE GREATER THAN THIS, THAT A MAN LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS"-
John 15:13.
It was given by God to us through the examples of His son. This is for us to DO so, not only to BELIEVE. A Gospel that says that FAITH ALONE will save you is a lie. But rather, Christ showed us that faith in God is not only by means of FAITH ALONE but he did it with DEEDS. The evidence of this is when he offered himself on the cross to save us.
I am sorry to say this, that in our time, religion is being used by anyone as a form of profit. Many new religions that attacks the Catholic faith were created almost each day. I am sorry to say, that the GOSPEL OF CHRIST is being used by many for RELIGIOUS CONSUMERISM.
The Gospel, in my belief also, is the way for us to achieve world peace. Because it teaches us the right thing. One of these is to love one another. If we all follow this in whole faith, will we experience this all kinds of things that is happening in our world? Greed, pride, and the worst-love for material wealth rather than God.
We truly needs it. And this is the way for us to live a world of peace and righteousness.
I hope this helps you and anyone who reads it to strenghten their faith, especially in our time, which truly challenging in our faith. May our faith In Christ guide us each day!

That Jesus Christ came to earth, God in human form to die as a ransom for sinners. Those who trust in him for the forgiveness of their sins will never die, but will have eternal life.

to teach about Jesus and his righteousness, not just the cross....but perfection.
I can not puncture the hand's of the messiah. The lord will make my soul perfect for heaven, and I will seek and seek and stretch my mind toward heaven to find another way. The way I see it you crusify christ when you die...you die in sin you are a sinner, his blood was shed for you. For me when I die, I will die righteous. For the Lord perfected me in this life, and when I die I was perfected by Gods hand, this way the messiah did not have to shed a drop of blood for me. I did not have to hurt the messiah to get into heaven, for God created heaven in me as I walked I was granted heaven. Whether or not I die or am taken like someone else that was taken in the bible, because God excepted me. HE crafted me on earth, as he pottered and perfected me and when he is done, I no longer walk my own way, but the ways of God and heaven.....you just die in your own way...a sinner needing the blood to get into heaven. I die in his ways or taken...righteous. Understand?
if you still think the messiah is needed....I believe there is 2 ways to get into heaven with Christ. One offers gifts in heaven and the other you just get in heaven.
One is the easy way....to believe Jesus rose from the dead for you. Live your life as best as you can.
2. is to believe Jesus rose for the dead, but died for the sinner, not the righteous. This is the kings road, hard. How do you be like the one that is righteous? when Jesus says you do not need to be healed because I already healed you, and not with his blood. Matthew 9:13...this does not say he hates the righteous , but they just do not need his blood to get into heaven. But how does one become righteous as God when he says all our righteousness are as dirty as rags next to his? Romans 3:11...if you seek him with all your heart, you can understand him, and his yoke will be easy. To understand righteousness, and the potter is the real way to get into heaven. This way the king did not have to die for us, but be loved by us. It talks about this way in Job28:7-28.. read it, to understand departs evil....and you become holy and righteous as God. Matthew 5:48 says to be perfect like the heavenly father is perfect.
Romans 3:23 says you do not have to sin and receive the glory of God..
Romans 3:10-18 verse 10 he is angry at everyone and says there is none righteous, NO, NOT ONE.
verse 11-18 he rants his righteous anger NO ONE IS SEEKING ME< NO ONE UNDERSTANDS ME.
Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness(PERFECTION) and ALL THESE THINGS SHALL BE ADDED UNTO YOU....verse ?????
hosea 10:12 says for you to seek TILL HE COMES AND rigns in you(his righteousness)
Romans 3:11 no one is seeking.....
but truth be told I have been at God for 6 yrs and he has yet to make me righteous, my faith has ruined Jesus in me. For the father has made me angry for not giving his righteousness to me....so I find no love in his gift. BUT I am still seeking. In order for me to love Jesus, the father has to love him also. Not just use his son as a sacrafice....if there is no reason. For we have to sin.....we are mentealy retarted or insain and any God that loves us should know this, and just let us into heaven, and not sacrafice his son. BUT if no one is seeking God for his ways and perfection......that is why he sent his son to us. To save us from his righteous wrath. Have you prayed for God's perfect RIGHTEOUSNESS? that is the question I ask you. I am. I have yet to find one who is.......God says threw him all things are possible. what about becomeing perfect?
also remember Jesus was not just a sacrafice, he also came to show us how to walk and Jesus was perfect and so should we....become perfect anyway.
