The gospel of God concerns a wonderful person, who is the Son of God, Jesus Christ our Lord (Rom. 1:1, 3-4). The gospel that we preach is no longer merely the Christ outside of us (namely, Jesus Christ who was born 2000 years ago in Bethlehem), but the Christ indwelling His believers, the indwelling subjective Saviour. |
Do You Know Why? |
|
Because God had passed through a process:
- Became a man called Jesus
- Passed through human living on this earth
for thirty three and a half years
- Died on the cross to redeem our sins
- Resurrected to become the life-giving Spirit
|
|
Only by passing through these processes can God dispense Himself into us to become our life. Today, we have enjoyed and are still enjoying such a dispensing. Hence, through preaching the gospel, that is, telling people the Christ that we have enjoyed and experienced, we are bringing the divine dispensing to others too. |
