TO THE BIBLE:
Romans 1:16
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.”
LET’S TALK
When you believed in Jesus Christ, you became a Christian and began living out your understanding of Christianity. Your life started reflecting your idea of what it means to follow Jesus. Whether you realise it or not, you have become a reflection of your own “gospel.” You might be thinking, “My gospel?” Yes! Each of us has a “gospel,” which is our perception of who Christ is and what He came to do.
You can’t live beyond your understanding of the Gospel. Whatever you believe about Jesus influences how you speak, think, and see the world. You view everything through your “Gospel lens.” That’s why it’s crucial to have an accurate understanding of the Gospel of Christ. What’s your take on the Gospel? Who do you believe Jesus is and what do you think He accomplished?
One thing I did early on was to ask myself, “What do you really believe about Jesus?” Using the Bible, I explored my beliefs about Jesus and wrote down my thoughts. As a Christian, you need to address these questions for yourself because you can only share with others what you truly have. You might preach the Gospel to others, but have you truly embraced it yourself? Do you have strong personal convictions about it?
Paul said, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek” (Romans 1:16). Have you reached that conclusion about the Gospel? If you truly believe and understand the Gospel, you’ll share it passionately and urgently. You won’t hold back in making sure it spreads throughout your community, city, country, and the world. Let your convictions about Christ drive you.
GO DEEPER
1 Corinthians 1:17
For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.
1 Corinthians 9:16
For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!
Romans 2:16
In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.
PRAY
Dear Father, thank you for the privilege of taking the same message the apostles preached to my world. I have a clearer understanding of the Gospel, and I’m convinced that it’s the only hope and power there is for the salvation of men. I proclaim it with boldness today, to the praise and glory of your Name. Amen.
