Gospel

“The gospel reveals the glory of God.”
 - Radical by David Platt
The gospel, the good news of Christ's redemption for all of creation, reveals, shows, displays, makes manifest, the glory, the awesome wonder, of God, the Creator and Sustainer.

The gospel does not stop at revealing sin. It is not merely a five step plan to a better life. It is not simply a promise of heaven or a condemnation to hell.

The gospel reveals the glory of God.

Your life and my life, as walking, breathing demonstrations of that gospel, reveal the glory of God.

But, do they?

Today, this hour, this moment, are we living out the gospel?

Do we reek with the glory of God?
