following the course of this world,
following the prince of the power of
the air, the spirit that is now at work
in the sons of disobedience—
 among whom we all once lived in the
passions of our flesh, carrying out
the desires of the body and the mind,
and were by nature children of wrath,
like the rest of mankind.
 But God, being rich in mercy, because
of the great love with which he loved
us, even when we were dead in our
trespasses, made us alive together
with Christ—by grace you have been
saved—
 and raised us up with him and seated
us with him in the heavenly places in
Christ Jesus, so that in the coming
ages he might show the immeasurable
riches of his grace in kindness toward
us in Christ Jesus.
For by grace you have been saved
through faith. And this is not your
own doing. It is the gift of God, not as

boast

hearts

urge you in the Lord Jesus, that as you
received from us how you ought to
walk and to please God, just as you are
doing, that you do so more and more

gave you through the Lord Jesus. For
this is the will of God, your
sanctification: that you abstain from
sexual immorality;

control his own body in holiness and
honor, not in the passion of lust like
the Gentiles who do not know God;
that no one transgress and wrong
his brother in this matter, because
the Lord is an avenger in all these
things, as we told you beforehand
and solemnly warned you.
For God has not called us for
impurity, but in holiness. Therefore
whoever disregards this, disregards
not man but God, who gives his Holy
spirit to you.”-1 Thessalonians 4:1-8

their God.
He will wipe away every tear from
their eyes, and death shall be no more,
neither shall there be mourning, nor
crying, nor pain anymore, for the
former things have passed away.”-
Revelation 21:3-4
The Gospel
WHY THE GOSPEL?

quickly deserting him who called you
in the grace of Christ and are
turning to a different gospel
WHY THE GOSPEL?

-not that there is another one, but
there are some who trouble you and
want to distort the gospel of Christ.
WHY THE GOSPEL?

heaven should preach to you a gospel
contrary to the one we preached to
you, let him be accursed.” –Galatians 1:6-8
WHY THE GOSPEL?

 “Why”-for what reason or purpose.

 What is the reason and purpose of the Gospel?
THE GOSPEL REASON

The gospel is meant to expose the
kingdom of darkness and it’s lies with
the marvelous light of the Kingdom of
God through the glorious truth of the
finished work of the Lord Jesus Christ.
THE GOSPEL REASON

   So that mankind may experience the
goodness of His grace through His
salvation and have their souls forever
preserved in the pleasure of His
presence by fulfilling the chief end of
their design, to glorify God.
CAUTION

If you do not know the Gospel, growing
in the Gospel, or showing the fruit of
the Gospel in your life and in the lives
of others you will be easily deceived by
something other that isn’t the gospel.

from us and if sin is far from us that means He is
truly pleased with us and that should always be
our ultimate aim.
LOVING THE AUTHOR OF
      THE GOSPEL

 “do not love the world or the things
in the world. If anyone loves the
world, the love of the Father is not in
him. For all that is in the world—the
desires of the flesh and the desires of
the eyes and pride of life—
LOVING THE AUTHOR OF
         THE GOSPEL

 is not from the Father but is from
the world. And the world is passing
away along with its desires, but
whoever does the will of God abides
forever.”-1 John 2:15-17

THE AUTHOR

 Every one loves the story. We are a generation that lives
for the sequel. We love stories because of how it makes us
feel, it’s challenge us, convicts us, and inspires us to be
swept up into the characters and their lives. God is the
author of our salvation and has written a story much bigger
than any story man could ever write and he doesn’t want us
to spectators in the story, but participants.
THE CHARACTERS

 There are three sets of characters in the story of God:

 The main character Jesus: It’s all about Jesus, not you!

 Those who love the Father

 Those who hate the Father
THE LOVERS

 We must always remember that it was God who first loved,
not the other way around. –Rev. 2:4
 Noah-Genesis 6:1-14
 He walked with the Lord and built an ark despite the
criticism from all the people who thought he was crazy for
believing that a flood was coming to cleanse the world of
wickedness. God spared him and his family.
THE LOVERS

 Abraham-Genesis 22:1-14

 He loved the Lord so much so that he was willing to sacrifice
his own son. The Lord saw that he feared Him and spared his
only son by providing a ram for the sacrifice.

 Hannah-1 Samuel 1:1-28

 She loved the Lord so much that she gave her only son,
Samuel, to service of the Lord, because the Lord had provided.
THE LOVERS
 David- 1 Samuel 16:7
 He is said to be a man after God’s on heart. He was not
perfect but he did love the Lord and when he sinned he
confessed his sin to the Lord. He did many great things for the
Lord.
 The Disciples-The New Testament
 The Disciples of Jesus gave them even until death for the
sake of the Gospel.
THE LOVER

 Jesus-Romans 5:8; John 15:13

 These verses explains everything.

 There is no greater lover than Jesus. He is faithfully
committed to lavishing His love on you every sec of every
hour of every day for all eternity and nothing will get in the
way.-Romans 8:37-39
THE HATERS

 Pharaoh- Exodus 14:3-4
 He is a punk. He thought he was the greatest man to live
and all had all power. God showed him otherwise.
 Ahab-1 Kings 16:30
 He did evil in the sight of the Lord more than any other
king before him. He worshipped Baal and not the living God
of his fathers.
THE HATERS

 Jezebel-Revelation 2:20
 This lady was bad. Enough said. Girls don’t be this girl.
 Pharisees- Matthew 23
 They hated Jesus. They were teachers of the Law and knew
Scripture better than anyone, but couldn’t recognize the God
of the Scriptures when he was standing right in front of
them. John 5:39-47
THE HATER

 El Diablo, Lucifer, or Stank face- 1 Peter 5:8; John 8:44

 He despises the main character Jesus. He thought in his
heart that he was more magnificent than God. He thought
wrong. He was not extended salvation and hates without any
mercy the lovers of God.
IDENTIFYING A HATER

 The Jealous Joker

 This person loves world period. They don’t have to have
the things of the world their are bent on evil and being with
world. They don’t care about anything. They just want to
watch the world burn. Your with Satan’s posse and your
trying to cause as much havoc as you can. Your about his
will, not God’s, because you love him and not God.
IDENTIFYING A HATER

 You make life chaos for those who really love you and
care for you. The sad part is you don’t care.

 You and the world are in starring roles. As long as you
have the world your alright.

 You are an assassin against God. Anything that has
assignment to bring God Glory your signing up to take it out.
IDENTIFYING A HATER

 The Gaudy Gold digger

 This person loves the trinkets and treasures the world’s
gives. They do whatever the worlds wants to flaunt whatever
the world wants the others to see. They love the world for the
money, because their more about themselves and they will
align themselves with the world to gain the world’s pearls.
IDENTIFYING A HATER

 When things get tough and there’s tension between the
light and dark. They take dark’s side every time, because
they love the things the world and don’t want to be apart
from them.

 Fashion, popularity, pleasure, riches, success, comfort,
etc. are their goals in life and they dig however deep they
need to dig to get them. Very easy to sway.
IDENTIFYING A HATER

 They try to manipulate to get want they want
 They don’t like correction, but really don’t care. They say
what they got say to keep their treasure. They rather go
through the self checkout than being checked out.
 These people are billboards on the road of life marketing
death to those on the way to God’s throne. They sold
themselves out for far lesser pleasures.
IDENTIFYING A HATER

 Confused carl & Carla

 The most dangerous group to me because their hard to
identify. These people have the Hannah Montana mentality,
“they want the best of both worlds.” they like this mentality
because it allows them to have a passport into both camps,
the Kingdom of light and the Kingdom of darkness.
IDENTIFYING A HATER

 They either stay neutral not taking a clear stance at all, or
their standing up for both, because they don’t want to fight.
 You think by doing good things that it’s good enough to
keep your status as Christian, so everyone will think you are
a Christian, so you can put on your dancing shoes and dance
it up with the world at night without anyone knowing.
 Smoke screen conviction
IDENTIFYING A LOVER

 Content Carl & Carla

 This people love God and truly have the Father abiding in
them. They find the world completely unfulfilling and
distasteful. Only God can satisfy them. Whether they are
married or not, rich or poor, fame or no fame their hope is
in Christ and Christ alone is their righteous. They are the
real deal and they make no deals with the world.
IDENTIFYING A LOVER

 Cautions:
 Remember it’s not Jesus and me, it’s Jesus and we
 God gifts you to serve mankind, not save mankind
 You will always be tempted to leave the One who called
you until your in the ground. Do not listen to the world and
it’s lies, abide in the Father and do His will and you shall live
forever
LOVER OR HATER?

 How will it end?

 Do you want to be remember as a Lover or Hater of God?

 John 8:12-30
LOVING MY ROLE IN THE
        GOSPEL

“and he gave the apostles, the
prophets, the evangelists, the
shepherds and teachers, to equip the
saints for the work of ministry, for

  • 7.  “But the angel said to the women, “do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay.” - Matthew 28:5-6

  • 9. Jesus really died! Jesus really rose! Jesus is always working! And He is ready to act in your life this week and the rest of your life. –John 5:17; Romans 8:28
  • 10.  “and you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience—
  • 11.  among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind.
  • 12.  But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved—
  • 13.  and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.
  • 14. For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing. It is the gift of God, not as a result of works, so that no one may boast
  • 15. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.” –Ephesians 2:1-10
  • 16. Jesus made things right between you and the Father! Jesus is your reward!
  • 17.  “for I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. - Romans 1:16
  • 18.  The Gospel will never be the Good News to you until you believe it is Good News done for you, not by you.  Good works will never be good enough to earn you good graces into the throne of God.  You gotta believe to be set free!  It is the goodness of God that wakes our dead hearts
  • 19.  “finally, then, Brothers, we ask and urge you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, just as you are doing, that you do so more and more
  • 20.  For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus. For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from sexual immorality;
  • 21.  that each one of you know how to control his own body in holiness and honor, not in the passion of lust like the Gentiles who do not know God;
  • 22. that no one transgress and wrong his brother in this matter, because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as we told you beforehand and solemnly warned you.
  • 23. For God has not called us for impurity, but in holiness. Therefore whoever disregards this, disregards not man but God, who gives his Holy spirit to you.”-1 Thessalonians 4:1-8
  • 24. If you truly are born-again we will have no problem following His commands, because they are not burdensome. 1 John 5:3 Knowledge is useless if you don’t put it into practice! He always finishes what He starts. Rom. 8:28
  • 25.  “and I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God.
  • 26. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.”- Revelation 21:3-4
  • 28. WHY THE GOSPEL? I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel
  • 29. WHY THE GOSPEL? -not that there is another one, but there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of Christ.
  • 30. WHY THE GOSPEL? But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed.” –Galatians 1:6-8
  • 31. WHY THE GOSPEL?  “Why”-for what reason or purpose.  What is the reason and purpose of the Gospel?
  • 32. THE GOSPEL REASON The gospel is meant to expose the kingdom of darkness and it’s lies with the marvelous light of the Kingdom of God through the glorious truth of the finished work of the Lord Jesus Christ.
  • 33. THE GOSPEL REASON  So that mankind may experience the goodness of His grace through His salvation and have their souls forever preserved in the pleasure of His presence by fulfilling the chief end of their design, to glorify God.
  • 34. CAUTION If you do not know the Gospel, growing in the Gospel, or showing the fruit of the Gospel in your life and in the lives of others you will be easily deceived by something other that isn’t the gospel.
  • 35. MIXING BAD NEWS WITH GOOD NEWS  Spirituality- We are all spiritual beings. God is spirit and we were created from Him, but yet he is distinct. - John 4:23-24  There is no other God, but our God. Any other claims that Jesus is not God must not be mixed with the Gospel! –Deut. 6:4; John 8:58; Isaiah 48:11
  • 36. MIXING BAD NEWS WITH GOOD NEWS  Jesus is the only way to the Father. There is no other way! –John 14:6  People will spend eternity either two: Under God’s peace or under God’s wrath.  Sin has consequences and it must be punished.
  • 37. MIXING BAD NEWS WITH GOOD NEWS  Relational-concerning the way two or more people or things are connected.  We are relational beings. We love friendship and family and being apart of a loving environment.
  • 38. MIXING BAD NEWS WITH GOOD NEWS  Connecting with Entertainment  Music, Movies, and social media have ability to produce multiple messages that either complement the Gospel or contend against the Gospel.  We must always be mindful of who or what we allow to influence us!
  • 39. MIXING BAD NEWS WITH GOOD NEWS  Connecting with friends and family  Anger-Proverbs 16:32; Ephesians 4:31  Bitterness-James 3:14-15; Ephesians 4:31  Forgiveness-Matthew 18:21-22
  • 40. MIXING BAD NEWS WITH GOOD NEWS  Physical-worshipping with our bodies  Our bodies are temples meant to bring glory to the Lord. -1 Corinthians 6:19-20  Sexual identity: 1 Corinthians 6:9-10  Sexual promiscuity: 1 Corinthians 6:12-18  Physical inhibitors: Drugs & Drinking -Eph.5:18
  • 41. THE GOSPEL IS THE ONLY HOPE  We must know the Word of God and Wash ourselves with it daily!  The Word of God will always weed out the Bad News!  Psalm 119:105  2 Corinthians 10:5  John 6:68
  • 42. WHY THE GOSPEL? It helps us clearly see God and if we can clearly see God He can clearly see us and if He can clearly see us then that means that sin is far from us and if sin is far from us that means He is truly pleased with us and that should always be our ultimate aim.
  • 43. LOVING THE AUTHOR OF THE GOSPEL  “do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride of life—
  • 44. LOVING THE AUTHOR OF THE GOSPEL  is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever.”-1 John 2:15-17 
  • 45. THE AUTHOR  Every one loves the story. We are a generation that lives for the sequel. We love stories because of how it makes us feel, it’s challenge us, convicts us, and inspires us to be swept up into the characters and their lives. God is the author of our salvation and has written a story much bigger than any story man could ever write and he doesn’t want us to spectators in the story, but participants.
  • 46. THE CHARACTERS  There are three sets of characters in the story of God:  The main character Jesus: It’s all about Jesus, not you!  Those who love the Father  Those who hate the Father
  • 47. THE LOVERS  We must always remember that it was God who first loved, not the other way around. –Rev. 2:4  Noah-Genesis 6:1-14  He walked with the Lord and built an ark despite the criticism from all the people who thought he was crazy for believing that a flood was coming to cleanse the world of wickedness. God spared him and his family.
  • 48. THE LOVERS  Abraham-Genesis 22:1-14  He loved the Lord so much so that he was willing to sacrifice his own son. The Lord saw that he feared Him and spared his only son by providing a ram for the sacrifice.  Hannah-1 Samuel 1:1-28  She loved the Lord so much that she gave her only son, Samuel, to service of the Lord, because the Lord had provided.
