GOOD NEWS
EJIAKOR SIMON
Romans 1:16 KJV
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
The Easy English translation of the Bible puts our text scripture thus; "I am not ashamed about the good news, because it is powerful. By the good news, God powerfully saves everyone who believes it. First, God saves the Jews who believe it. Then he saves the Gentiles who believe it." (Romans 2:16)
Just a few things to note here!
First, the gospel is good news.
Second, this good new is powerful.
Third, this good news is God's instrument for saving those who believes it.
Fourth, Jews can believe it.
Fifth, Gentiles can believe it too.
What then is this good news?
According to John 3:16, 2 Corinthians 15:3-4, and 1Timothy 1:15 this good news is what Jesus accomplished through His death, burial and resurrection. By the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ, God powerfully saves any one who believes in His Son Jesus Christ. You too can believe this good news today!
Praise God forevermore!
