In an ambience as theologized as in which we live, where talking about complex doctrinal issues has become almost the bread of every day, we have overlooked that the message of the Gospel is a simple, unpretentious message, that speaks to us of the love of God that even being sinners Christ died for us.
It is the message of the Bible, the message of an Almighty God, Creator of heaven and earth, and by which all created things subsist. It is the message of a God always present, who fills all things in all, who, although he abhors sin, loves the sinner and delights in his Creation.
The message of a God who does not respecter of persons who, although He speaks against a nation, to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy it; but if the nation turn from their evil, He repents of the evil that spoke about them.
It is the message that breaks out among people who do not know Him, even among those who do not want to hear Him. It is the message that speaks of Peace, of restoration, of building, of restitution; the message that says, you shall be built.
It is the message of the one who calls the things which be not as if they were, the one who calls all things by name. It is the message that the prophets described as the God of all flesh, God of the spirits, the God of heaven, and the God of the earth, God of gods. Such is the greatness of his strength, and his power and virtue.
The message of the Gospel is neither philosophical nor religious, nor is the power of its force lies in the etymology of the Word.
For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power. 1st. Corinthians 4:20
It is not a message subject to the hermeneutics of the word, difficult to understand,
For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off. 12It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it? 13Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it? Deuteronomy 30:11-13
It is the message born of conviction, of the personal conviction that God revealed Himself and spoke, and that his instructions do not need interpretation,
But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it. Deuteronomy 30:14
It was the message that was proclaimed in Jerusalem, in Judea, Samaria, and throughout the Roman Empire,
But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. Romans 10:8, 9
The message of the Gospel is the same prophetic message established even before the foundation of the world, it is the theme established as the foundation of the Mosaic Law,
Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory? 27And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself. Luke 24:26, 27
.. And proclaimed and established by the apostles of Jesus as the foundation of faith,
Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls. 10Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you: 11Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow. 12Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into. 1st. Peter 1:9-12
The message of the Gospel is the Revelation that Jesus is the Messiah (the Christ, in Greek),
He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, we have found the Messiah, which is, being interpreted, the Christ. John 1.41
The woman saith unto him, I know that Messiah cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things. John 4:25
These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue. John 9:22
