The Gospel of Jesus Christ

"Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved." Mark 16:15-16

“Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.” Acts 2:38

"And he said, "Yes, it was written long ago that the Messiah must suffer and die and rise again from the dead on the third day“. And now I will send the Holy Spirit, just as my Father promised. But stay here in the city until the Holy Spirit comes and fills you with power from heaven.” Luke 24:46-49

What is the gospel? Christ died for our sins; He was buried, and rose from the dead. We obey the gospel by becoming dead to sin, baptized into Christ Jesus and His death by being buried with Him by baptism. As Christ was raised from the dead by the glorious power of the Father, now we also may live new lives in the Holy Ghost. 1Corinthians 15:1-4, Romans 6:2-4
