What is the Gospel/Salvation?
-
Answer: The Gospel (meaning "Good News") is the message that God has provided a way for humanity to be reconciled to Him despite their sin. Salvation (being saved from the penalty of sin) is granted as a free gift through faith in Jesus Christ's finished work on the cross and his resurrection.
-
Explanation: The Bible teaches that "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23). The wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23). God, in His love, sent Jesus to pay the penalty for sin. Salvation is not earned by good works but received by grace through faith (Ephesians 2:8-9).
