The Gospel (Good News)
Quick answer
The gospel is the announcement that God has acted in Jesus — his life, death, and resurrection — to save sinners and restore his world.
Overview
"Gospel" (Greek euangelion) means good news — originally the herald''s report of a victory or a king''s accession. The Christian gospel is the news that the crucified and risen Jesus is Lord, that in him sin is forgiven and death defeated, and that his kingdom has come. Paul summarizes it: "Christ died for our sins... was buried... was raised on the third day." It is not advice to follow but news to believe — and the power of God for salvation.
