The Gospel of Jesus Christ

[JLB]

The Gospel of Jesus Christ -


From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” Matthew 4:1

• Repent for the Kingdom of God is at hand.

The Gospel of Jesus Christ, that He sent His disciples to preach.


And He called the twelve to Himself, and began to send them out two by two, and gave them power over unclean spirits. He commanded them to take nothing for the journey except a staff—no bag, no bread, no copper in their money belts— but to wear sandals, and not to put on two tunics.
Also He said to them, “In whatever place you enter a house, stay there till you depart from that place. And whoever will not receive you nor hear you, when you depart from there, shake off the dust under your feet as a testimony against them. Assuredly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!”
So they went out and preached that people should repent. Mark 6:7-12

• So they went out and preached that people should repent.

The Gospel of the Kingdom of God that would be preached in the last days before His coming.

And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come. Matthew 24:14


If it doesn’t have Repent, (turn to God) it’s not the Gospel of Jesus Christ.


Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Acts 2:38


The Gospel to the Gentiles as recounted, by the Jews who went with Peter to the house of Cornelius.


Then I remembered the word of the Lord, how He said, John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’ If therefore God gave them the same gift as He gave us when we believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could withstand God?”
When they heard these things they became silent; and they glorified God, saying, “Then God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance to life.” Acts 11:16-18

• Then God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance to life.

Repent means to turn to God, which by default means turn away from Satan as Lord.

This is what Jesus Christ com I shed the Apostle Paul to preach to the Gentiles.

Words of Christ in red —


But rise and stand on your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness both of the things which you have seen and of the things which I will yet reveal to you. I will deliver you from the Jewish people, as well as from the Gentiles, to whom I now send you, to open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.’
“Therefore, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision, but declared first to those in Damascus and in Jerusalem, and throughout all the region of Judea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent, turn to God, and do works befitting repentance. Acts 26:16-20

• and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent, turn to God, and do works befitting repentance.

The way we do this is by confessing Jesus as Lord.

This is obeying the Gospel command to repent.


that 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. Romans 10:9-10

• with the mouth confession is made unto salvation
