Is the Gospel True?

BIBLE MEDITATION

“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God.” Ephesians 2:8

 

DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT

How can you tell whether or not you have the true Gospel? Paul gives you three tests.

Its source. Where did it come from? God gave it. It is direct and divine revelation. The true Gospel is authenticated by its source.

Its salvation. Any gospel that is not the Gospel of grace is not the true Gospel. You can’t beg it. You can’t buy it. You can’t borrow it. You can’t steal it. You can’t earn it. It was bought by Christ on the cross. It is the supernatural work of God.

Its subject. It is the grace of Christ. Jesus is the subject. From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible is all about Jesus.

ACTION POINT

Take an hour or two this week and find the prophecies about Jesus in the book of Isaiah. Take comfort in knowing that Jesus is the One who was, who is, and who is to come!
