When I look at the Gospel, I see how it is speaking to me at this time. I see how to be to others and it helps.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
God has hardwired me to thoroughly enjoy and be sharpened by good and friendly theological discussion about the gospel.
I think that's a part of what motivates me in my teaching and writing. Once the Gospel feels mainstream and becomes a nicely organized, orchestrated belief system, frankly, I don't think there is even an attraction to the human spirit.
The Gospel comes in power and the Holy Spirit, with much assurance. If you call upon the name of the Lord, God will transform you on the inside, give you the shock of your life, and give you everlasting life on top of that.
The Gospel purifies and renews: it bears fruit wherever the community of believers hears and welcomes the grace of God in truth and lives in charity. This is my faith; this is my joy.
The most effective way to preach the gospel is through example. If we live according to our beliefs, people will notice.
I went back and researched the history of gospel; where it came from, slavery times, communicating with each other without their master knowing what they are saying, and that gospel artists view themselves differently.
I'm supposed to share the Lord with people. All of us are disciples on some level. You don't have to be behind the podium to tell a story, connect with people and share the Gospel.
Preach the Gospel at all times and when necessary use words.
When you are giving people the gospel, you are giving them something to believe, and you have to set the stage for that. You don't just drive up and dump the truck and drive off.
The gospel is entirely a message about what someone else has done not only for me but also for the renewal of the whole creation.
