Some Thoughts on the Simple Gospel
We sometimes make the good news of Jesus too complicated. The Gospel—in its simplest form from the mouth of Jesus Himself—is this:
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16).
This verse is the clearest summary of the Gospel in the Bible and presents us with two important facts:
First, God’s love is extravagant and sacrificial. The greatest act of sacrificial love ever performed was God sending His Son to die on a cross for sinners. God proved His love, once and for all, by paying the ultimate price for our salvation.
Second, salvation is available to anyone who believes in Jesus. No matter what we’ve said or done, how often we’ve said or done it, or if we say or do it again—all we need to do to be saved is believe in Jesus Christ and live according to His Word. His perfect life and sacrificial death are sufficient payment for all our sins: past, present, and even future (Hebrews 10:14).
Some interpret this to mean that salvation is universal. This is partially true—it’s universal because it’s offered and available to everyone. It’s personal, however, because we must accept the gift of God’s extravagant and sacrificial love by faith.
We have a choice to make. We can choose to believe in Jesus and live with Him forever—or we can choose to not believe in Jesus and face a Christless eternity. It's not an option to remain undecided—which is the same as not believing.
If your car stalls on railroad tracks and a train is coming, you must decide to either abandon your car—or die. The train of God’s judgment is coming, so we must choose to abandon our unbelief—or die. The stakes couldn't be higher—happy are those who choose well.
Set before you is the choice between life and death.
Choose wisely. Choose life, my friends!
