Who is the Gospel FOR?

Who is the Gospel FOR?

In business, one of the most important questions that must be answered is: Who is your product or service FOR?

The reason is that you won't be in business very long if you're trying to sell trucks to people who want cars.

If you're selling trucks, you need to market and advertise to people who want or need a truck.

Biblical Christianity, however, is NOT a business. It's a real relationship, with a real Saviour!

True Christianity is living out a commission that eats, sleeps & breathes the gospel of Jesus Christ!

The gospel is that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures!

So, who is the gospel FOR?

The gospel is FOR everyone.

It's the gospel that brings car and truck people together. People who do NOT share similar interests all of a sudden share an interest that far surpasses what they drive.

Christians are NOT to 'market' or 'advertise' the gospel. Instead, Christians are commissioned to PREACH the gospel.

Remember, a business person will MARKET their product or service. But, a gospel witness will MAGNIFY Christ Jesus the Lord!
