What is the gospel?
What is the gospel of Jesus Christ?
“The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.” (Mark 1:1, NKJV)“Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came to Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.”” (Mark 1:14–15, NKJV)
What does Christ mean? The AnointedOne
What was Jesus Anointed to be? To answer that question, let us look at David:
“Now the Lord said to Samuel, “How long will you mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? Fill your horn with oil, and go; I am sending you to Jesse the Bethlehemite. For I have provided Myself a king among his sons.”” (1 Samuel 16:1, NKJV)
“So he sent and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, with bright eyes, and good-looking. And the Lord said, “Arise, anoint him; for this is the one!” Then Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of his brothers; and the Spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel arose and went to Ramah.” (1 Samuel 16:12–13, NKJV)
“Then the men of Judah came, and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah. And they told David, saying, “The men of Jabesh Gilead were the ones who buried Saul.”” (2 Samuel 2:4, NKJV)
What does it mean that Jesus was The Christ? It meant that He was anointed King
Isaiah 9:6–7 “For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of His government and peace There will be no end, Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, To order it and establish it with judgment and justice From that time forward, even forever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.”
The Gospel of Jesus Christ is The Good News that Jesus is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords andHe is Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting father and Prince of Peace.
His ever increasing kingdom is without end.
The Anointed King Jesus brought the kingdom of God to us. Repent and believe the gospel of the kingdom of God. The kingdom of God is here. The kingdom of God is in you and you are in the kingdom of God.
Your citizenship is already established in God's kingdom through faith in God and inthe one Anointed Jesus whom He sent to us. Our Heavenly Father sent The Anointed Jesus to give us the kingdom of God. It is The Father's good pleasure togive you the kingdom.
The kingdom of God is righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost. If we are in the kingdom of God, then we are subjects to the king. His word is our constitution. He has exalted His word above His name. We have the privilege of citizens of heaven, heirs of God and joint-heirs with The Anointed Jesus. Joint-heirs means his inheritance isour inheritance.
We are told by our constitution what our inheritance, rights and positions are. We bring our petitions to God based upon His word - our constitution. We bring our petitions in faith and in rightstanding with our heavenly government. We come boldly before the throne of grace and obtain mercy and grace in our time of need.
If we do not know what God has said, then we are unable to access our rights according to our constitution. If we do not believe what God has said, then we believe He is a liar.
We keep God's word in our mouths, we meditate in it day and night, so that we may observe and do all that is written in it, then we shall make our way prosperous and have good success.
