If you believe what you like in the gospel, and reject what you don\u2019t like, it is not the gospel you believe, but yourself.<\/p>\n
Augustine of Hippo<\/i><\/p>\n
The gospel has lost none of its ancient power. No human device need be tried to prepare the sinner to receive it, for if God has sent it no power can hinder it; and if He has not sent it, no power can make it effectual.<\/p>\n
Dr Bullinger<\/i><\/p>\n
Christ\u2019s riches are unsearchable, and this doctrine of the gospel is the field this treasure is hidden in.<\/p>\n
Thomas Goodwin<\/i><\/p>\n
The gospel of Jesus Christ is news, good news: the best and most important news that any human being ever hears.<\/p>\n
The gospel of Jesus Christ: an evangelical celebration<\/i><\/p>\n
The gospel is so simple that small children can understand it, and it is so profound that studies by the wisest theologians will never exhaust its riches.<\/p>\n
Charles Hodge<\/i><\/p>\n
The gospel is open to all; the most respectable sinner has no more claim on it than the worst.<\/p>\n
D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones<\/i><\/p>\n
The core of the gospel in one sentence. [\u201cWe are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong\u201d Luke 24:42.] The essence of eternity through the mouth of a crook:<\/p>\n
I am wrong; Jesus is right.<\/p>\n
I have failed: Jesus has not.<\/p>\n
I deserve to die; Jesus deserves to live.<\/p>\n
Max Lucado<\/i><\/p>\n
The gospel is a doctrine that teaches a far higher matter than the wisdom, righteousness, and religion of the world; it teaches free forgiveness of sins through Christ.<\/p>\n
Martin Luther<\/i><\/p>\n
Evangel is a Greek word, meaning glad tidings, good news, welcome information, a shout, or something that makes us sing, talk or rejoice. When David defeated the giant Goliath, there was a great shout, and an encouraging message was passed round among the Jews to say that their terrible enemy had been killed, and that they were free to enjoy liberty and peace; thereupon, they sang and danced, and made merry. Similarly, God\u2019s evangel, the New Testament, is a good piece of news, a war-cry. It was echoed throughout the world by the apostles. They proclaimed a true David, who had done combat with, and gained the victory over, sin, death, and the devil. In so doing, he had taken those who were enchained by sin, threatened by death, and overpowered by the devil; though they had merited no rewards he redeemed them, justified them, gave them life and salvation, and so brought them peace, and led them back to God.<\/p>\n
Martin Luther<\/i><\/p>\n
So tenaciously should we cling to the world revealed by the gospel, that were I to see all the angels of heaven coming down to me to tell me something different, not only would I not be tempted to doubt a single syllable, but I would shut my eyes and stop my ears, for they would not deserve to be either seen or heard.<\/p>\n
Martin Luther<\/i><\/p>\n
The gospel is not speculation but fact. It is truth, because it is the record of a person who is the Truth.<\/p>\n
Alexander Maclaren<\/i><\/p>\n
The gospel of Jesus Christ can make bad men good and good men better, can alter human nature, can change human lives.<\/p>\n
David O. McKay<\/i><\/p>\n
The beginning of the gospel is nothing but the whole Old Testament.<\/p>\n
Origen<\/i><\/p>\n
The gospel is not presented to mankind as an argument about religious principles. Nor is it offered as a philosophy of life. Christianity is a witness to certain facts \u2013 to events that have happened, to hopes that have been fulfilled, to realities that have been experienced, to a Person who has lived and died and been raised from the dead to reign for ever.<\/p>\n
Massey H. Shepherd<\/i><\/p>\n
I do not believe that we can preach the gospel if we do not preach justification by faith, without works. Nor unless we preach the sovereignty of God in the dispensation of grace.<\/p>\n
Nor unless we exalt the electing, unchangeable, eternal, immutable, conquering love of Jehovah.<\/p>\n
Nor do I think we can preach the gospel, unless we base it upon the peculiar redemption which Christ made for his elect and chosen people. Nor can I comprehend a gospel which lets saints fall away after they are called.<\/p>\n
C.H. Spurgeon<\/i><\/p>\n
The gospel, like its blessed Master, is always crucified between two thieves \u2013 legalists of all sorts on the one hand and Antinomians on the other; the former robbing the Savior of the glory of his work for us, and the other robbing him of the glory of his work within us.<\/p>\n
James Henley Thornwell<\/i><\/p>\n
Euagelio (that we call gospel) is a Greek worde, and signyfyth good, mery, glad and joyfull tydings, and maketh a mannes hert glad, and maketh hym synge, daunce and leepe for joye.<\/p>\n
William Tyndale<\/i><\/p>\n
There are two things to do about the gospel \u2013 believe it and behave it.<\/p>\n
