“The Gospel of Christ” Rom_1:16

“A native cook in Nigeria,” said Mrs. F. W. Dodds, a missionary, at the Primitive Methodist Conference at Liverpool recently, “placed the text ‘God is Love’ on the kitchen door, and wrote underneath, ‘No admittance.’“

The cook did not mean what the notice seemed to say, for the Gospel proclaims blessing for all.

1. God loves all, and calls all to believe in Christ and be saved—Joh_3:16.

2. Christ died as a propitiation on account of all, for the sins of the world—1Jn_2:2.

3. The Spirit says, “Whosoever calleth on the Name of the Lord shall be saved” (Act_2:21).

4. Christ says, “Him that cometh unto Me, I will in no wise cast out” (Joh_6:37).

5. The righteousness of God is unto all, and upon all who believe—Rom_3:22.

6. God makes no difference in blessing all who will be blest—Act_15:9.

7. Forgiveness of sin is proclaimed to all who believe in Christ—Act_13:39.

8. As many as receive Christ are made the children of God—Joh_1:12.
