The Message Matters
Basic Gospel
Published on 03/23/2017
The message matters. And not just any message. There is only one that saves and it is the message concerning Jesus. His death, burial, resurrection, and ascension. Add to this message or take away from it and you rob it of its power. The Corinthians were doing just that. Some believed water baptism was an essential piece of the story. Others added the wisdom of man to the mix. Confusion and division in the church was the result. There is nothing to add to the Gospel. The story of Jesus is enough and sufficient. Think about it. His death took away your sins once and for all. And He was raised to life in victory and power. The work is done, complete, finished. That’s the message. And it’s good news. The message does matter. Don’t let anyone tell you differently.
