It's the Gospel: October 28

The Apostles Preaching the Gospel
by Gustave Dore
This is our next to last collection of gospel-themed posts for this gospel-themed month.

At Hiraeth, Kim quotes Jonathan Edwards on the wisdom of God in the gospel and links to the sermon that’s the source of the quote.

Violet of promptings shares one of her own poems. It’s about the black hole of the gospel.

At the Field Stone Cottage, Dorothy show us that the good news of the gospel is foreshadowed in the Old Testement.

Terry Stauffer (New Lumps) loves the gospel. He encourages everyone to

[d]iscover, study and be captivated by the gospel. Live it as the center of your life and you will not only have a sustaining faith, you will know and treasure the One True God who will sustain you with joy - no matter what happens otherwise in your life.

I’ve got a quote from Jerry Bridges about how an understanding of the gospel will get you out of bed in the morning.

At Rebecca Writes, we’ve been celebrating the gospel during the month of October. You have one more opportunity to join us by posting something about the gospel—which, in a nutshell, is the good news that Jesus Christ died for our sin and was raised from the dead, so that through faith, we are united with Christ and receive every blessing merited by his work—by this coming Friday. Then send me the link to your post in an email (You’ll find the address by clicking the contact button in the sidebar.) and I’ll link back to your post(s) in my last gospel round up on Friday, October 31. There are no limits, really, on the form (quote, verse, poem, story, book review, or essay, etc) or number of your post, just the subject. You may want to to contribute a link to a post on someone else’s post, too, and that’s okay by me.
