Matthew 16:13-17When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Baro-jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.

  5. Gospel of Jesus Christ The Bible Says John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Is Jesus being the son of God all we must believe concerning His identity? John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. Jesus the son of God …… is God.

  6. Gospel of Jesus Christ The Bible Says Colossians 2:9 For in him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. When Jesus came to earth, did He leave His Godhead in heaven? God the Father called His own son, God Hebrews 1:8But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. Who is Jesus? 100% God & Man

And God said to Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.

  8. Gospel of Jesus Christ The Bible Says Matthew 3:16-17 Amd Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. So we must believe Jesus is God or we will die in our sins What about the spirit? There are THREE that make up the Godhead FATHER-SON-SPIRIT

  9. Gospel of Jesus Christ The Bible Says 1 Timothy 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. How does Jesus fit in as part of the Godhead? Why do we need a mediator? Isaiah 59:2 But your iniquities have separated betweenyou from your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear. We’re separated from God. What can save us?

  11. Gospel of Jesus Christ The Bible Says Why did Jesus have to do these things to save us? I Corinthians 15:1-4 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures.

  12. Gospel of Jesus Christ The Bible Says We have a problem! Romans 3:23For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God. SIN PROBLEM We can’t deny it! 1 John 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. Jesus can take care of our SIN PROBLEM

  13. Gospel of Jesus Christ The Bible Says Watch how Jesus takes care of our sin problem Ephesians 1:7In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace. Our Sin

  14. Gospel of Jesus Christ The Bible Says How wonderful is that forgiveness? Jude 1:24Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy. X Our Sin

  15. Gospel of Jesus Christ We have another problem! The Bible Says GRAVE PROBLEM 1 Corinthians 15:20-23But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming.

  16. Gospel of Jesus Christ The Bible Says Watch how Jesus takes care of our grave problem 2 Timothy 1:10 But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel. The Grave

  17. Gospel of Jesus Christ The Bible Says Because Jesus overcame the grave, we too can overcome the grave through reconciliation Romans 5:10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life! X The Grave

  18. Sharing the Gospel This is the Gospel of Jesus Christ 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 Resurrection Death X X Our Sin Problem The Grave Problem BURIAL

  19. Gospel of Jesus Christ Now that we see what the gospel is, how do I respond to it? The Bible Says Life and Death Statement Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. Believe, is that all I have to do, believe that the gospel took place?

  20. Gospel of Jesus Christ The Bible Says What about repentance? Do I have to change the way I live in order to obey the gospel? 1Corinthians 6:9-10 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind. Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. Life and Death Statement What if I don’t? What if I choose not to obey the gospel?

  21. Gospel of Jesus Christ What if we choose not to accept and obey the gospel? Life and Death Statements 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power.

  22. Gospel of Jesus Christ The Bible Says What must we do to escape God’s vengeance and everlasting destruction? Romans 6:3-4Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. How do we humans obey the gospel? How do I obey the death, burial & resurrection of Jesus?

  23. Gospel of Jesus Christ United w/ Christ in resurrection Romans 6:5For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection. United w/ Christ in his death Buried w/ Christ in baptism

  24. Gospel of Jesus Christ The Bible Says Romans 6:6-7Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. For he that is dead is freed from sin. Our sins put to death on the cross

  25. Gospel of Jesus Christ The Bible Says Dead to sin Romans 8:10-11And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. Alive in Christ His spirit living in us

  26. Gospel of Jesus Christ The Bible Says Slaves to sin Romans 6:17-18But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness. Obeyed the Gospel Slaves to righteousness

  27. Obeying the Gospel of Jesus Christ Romans 6:3-7 Resurrection Death BURIAL Put our sins on the cross, death of old self Arise, forgiven, walking in newness of life Be buried with Christ in baptism

  28. Obeying the Gospel of Jesus Christ Baptism Resurrection Death BURIAL The Bible Says Where does one actually become a christian? Galatians 3:26-27For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. In Christ

  29. Gospel of Jesus Christ Once we become a christian, will we face persecution? How great does our love for Christ need to be? Matthew 10:37-39He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me. He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it. John 15:20Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep your’s also.

  30. Gospel of Jesus Christ The Bible Says Jesus commands commitment 2 Peter 2:20-21For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.

  31. Gospel of Jesus Christ Read what the Bible says in the following verse and give God your answer God’s Word Says Acts 22:16"And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.” Don’t hesitate … The Gospel of Jesus Christ is available to all mankind

  32. “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God” (Ephesians 2:8)

  33. Obeying the Gospel of Jesus Christ What must our response be to accepting the Gospel of Jesus Christ? Why do we need to preach the Gospel? 2 Corinthians 4:1,3,5Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not … But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost … For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake. Matthew 16:15-16And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
