What is "The Gospel"?—Three Convictions

"The Gospel" must be...

1. Good News for Everyone

- "Gospel" means "good news" so it can't be anything less than this

- For all people (e.g. Lk. 2.10, 3.6; Jn. 12.32)

2. Simple Enough for Anyone

- Children are capable of grasping it
(e. g. "…the kingdom of God belongs to [little children]" and "anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it." - Mk. 10.14-15

3. About Jesus Christ Exclusively

- Jesus Christ is the Gospel (Mk. 1.1; Jn. 14.6; II Tim. 2.8)

Welcome to BeingTC.com

Like yours, my life is multi-faceted. This blog is an attempt to chronicle my de-compartmentalized life and thoughts as a Jesus-follower, husband, father, urbanite, minister, theologian, tech geek, hip hop head, and designer. Discussion is welcome, so long as it is conducted in a spirit of charity. First and foremost, this blog is for self-expression—then community.
