The Gospel Made Simple — Easy as 1, 2, 3!

Everyone needs to hear the gospel message of Jesus’ saving grace.  And, as Christians, it is our duty and should be our joy, to share the gospel with all people.  There are people all around who do not know Jesus.  They need to see their need for Him as Saviour and Lord.  There are also those who belong to Jesus but need to be reminded of His love and all He has done for them.  

That said, sometimes it’s just the simplest of words that can move the heart in great ways.  Here’s a short and sweet gospel presentation with three points:  Jesus Died, Jesus Rose, and Jesus Saves.  Tell someone about Jesus today!

1. Jesus Died

Jesus laid down His life for us 

Rom 5:8  God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

1 John 3:16  By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

John 15:13  “Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.

Jesus died so our sins could be forgiven

Eph 1:7  In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

1 John 2:12  I write to you, little children, Because your sins are forgiven you for His name’s sake.

2. Jesus Rose

Jesus rose from death so He could give His life to us 

1 Cor 1:30  …of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God; and righteousness and sanctification and redemption;

2 Cor 5:21  For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

3. Jesus Saves

 Jesus gives His life, His righteousness, to us so He can live His life through us.

Rom 8:29-30  For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.  Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

Rom 10:9-10 …if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus
and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead,
you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness,
and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
